Help/Support Suggestions for someone who has never hacked before

FateEX · November 16, 2014

Hello. I am Javi_Tech and I am an ultra n00b when it comes to hacking. Ever since I first looked up cheat codes for Mortal Kombat 3, I've had the greatest pleasure in using cheats and mods in my gameplay. I've always been a user. But now a new game I play doesn't have a lot of cheats for iOS platform, so I've decided I want to take the leap to become a maker of mods.

Brave Frontier is a server-based game. So what are tips for a newbie like me you can give/redirect me to? I tried iGG and rmaslr, but to no avail What is theos/SDK? Would I need those to makes mods?

Specifically to Brave Frontier, my objective is to modify EXP gain from a mission, and find a way to enter a dungeon without a "key." Some stuff from Zahirsher gave me hope for this game (:

I found many tutorials on this site, but many of them don't have a clear description of what they do.

For example, I see TUTs for "How to install THEOS" or "How to set up SDK" etc. but they don't mention what theos or sdk does or what it's for. That's where I'm lost. Where should I begin? And I don't expect to learn everything in a day. Just some pointers would help

I'd like to post mods for everyone to enjoy, but I just don't know how :<

Thanks for reading, and I hope this can help other newbies too.

EDIT: Maybe I will try Flex this time.

Hello!

A lot of information for iOS developing can be found here: http://iphonedevwiki.net/

Don't expect to hack Brave Frontier without learning the basics first. I suggest you start with Flex 2 and make mods using that.

Once you're comfortable with Flex, you can setup Theos on your iDevice and be able to convert your flex mods to .deb hacks for everyone to download and install.

A very well written tutorial for beginners can be found here: http://iosgods.com/topic/831-tutorial-how-to-hack-using-mobile-substrate-method-hooking/
