Some beginner questions about debug
Posted: Sat Aug 17, 2013 9:53 pm
Hello,
I've just discovered this marvellous tool, and possibilities seem endless for romhacking.
It runs very slow on my hardware (5 - 10 fps) but I don't care, since I want to use it primarly for studying games' source codes.
Though, many advanced and exciting features, such as Active Dissassembly, are quite obscure. Tutorials with simple examples would be greatly desirable.
I'm stuck too with simple things :
- I traced (debug / Megadrive / Main 68000 / trace) some code to locate routines, it worls well, but I'm unable to save the trace log in a file.
- I made a RAM dump but the 'Save to' contextual menu reports an error whenever I try to use it; I copy/pasted the dump to an hex editor but it only worked once (I tried this too with the trace log, unsuccessfully).
Thanks for any help
