Help/Support How do I get started?

Arberlicous · August 15, 2015

I have contemplated about learning to hack for quite a while. It is just that I dont have a deep enough grasp on how it all works and how much time it takes to learn all this. So, I have a few questions I would like to ask to help myself understand.

1. How much learning does it usually take for someone to be able to produce their own hack?

2. What are the steps that lead to the ability of hacking? (such as: learn [blank], then learn [blank2], and then you are able to do [blank])

3. From what I can tell save game hacks are easier to produce than cydia subsrate hacks. Am I correct in my assumption?

4. Do many hackers do what gamegem or gameplayer does? Where you search for a change in the files that corresponds with a change in the game, several times, until you are able to locate the file which you would modify to give you a different in-game value.

5. What else should I know that I havent asked to know?

1.) For me, I learned Ms, MSHook, and IGM in three days. It kind of depends on what you are doing. Making Code Injects could take a while, depending on the person(more > less knowledge).

2.) Best to learn Mobile Subtrate/MS, then MSHook, ARM Instructions first then IDA w/ strings, but if you want to go complex(my opinion), then GDB/LLDB.

3.) Yes, super easy.

4.) Yes.

5.) IDA is hard. I cri ;(
