Might I recommend a channel called chilitomatonoodle? He doesn't teach hacking but he does teach c++ game programming so you'll find lots of relevant gems there.
After learning x86 assembly for the last few months it's cool to see an application where all my studying is useful day to day rather than something that's in the back of my mind when I'm coding in something like c++
I'd encourage you to learn more about reverse engineering and get involved in the cracking community, given you already know assembly, you might just become the next Empress. The cracking community desperately needs more reverse-engineers involved, as it takes almost a year to crack a Denuvo game, and it will only get worse as DRM progresses, that is unless Empress decides to actually start cracking games again, which is very rare nowadays.
@@gebruiker8453 I mainly want to do this kind of stuff to develop bots and make a bot army to farm and sell game assets. I have done this before years ago, made pretty good money with it. I developed my own bot but I did it with a very amateur method of AutoHotkey + Image recognition using Python and Sikulli. Yea, nothing sophisticated like Assembly, C, C++ since it was a high level (surface) programming bot (it didn't used the own game to make itself work).

Even if it is tough for others to learn even the basics, doing self-learning every hour of a day or week can help out a TON, especially when it comes to having a lot of free-time or needing to meet deadlines like college.
Oh I had never heard of reclass. That sounds very useful - I always just reconstruct the structs by hand in IDA. No matter how good you guys get, always rewatch the fundamentals. I always learn something new
tbh with you this will not help you at all (or it should help you only for the first 2-3 days). Go RE any executable that you not know the initial source code and try to accomplise your target or expiriement with that
I have a very very basic understanding of reverse engineering from watching other people, and attempting stuff myself, and this is a great video. Very good advice here, I also learned some things from this as well, thanks for the informative content cazz
It is actually hilarious how cazz can say with a straight face that any competent reverse engineer would waste their time using Ghidra instead of cracking the full version of IDA pro whenever they want. Even the IDA devs know individuals who are halfway decent at reversing and just want a full copy of IDA to use on their personal PC are going to get it for free if they really want it because its not hard to patch just like anything else we do on a daily basis. Charging thousands of dollars for an individual license for IDA pro is so absurd that it might as well be a challenge to crack it publicly issued to the target customers that are largely made up of professionals and enthusiasts in the software analysis / vulnerability research field to begin with. I'd be shocked if more than 10% of individuals that have it (using it in a personal non-commercial /work capacity) actually paid for it lmao. Hexrays makes all their money from commercial sales anyways, and they do quite well.
As an SE student, we do learn about reverse engineering, however we were also taught it may cause legal issues, whether or not it is legal to do it on all games software is generally considered a complicated issue that involve copyright or country law stuff. It is important to note that even if reverse engineering is not explicitly illegal, it may still be prohibited by the end-user license agreement (EULA) or other agreements with the game developer/publisher. Violating such agreements could result in legal action being taken against the reverse engineer. -ChatGPT
That is true. As a law student i can confirm that code is protected under copyright laws as a work of literature in most parts of the world, therefore altering it without permission from the owner is copyright infringement
i will strongly disagree. Everytime i RE a application that not know the initial source i try to think like a developer (human), how he possibly made something in his application. Compiler indeed goes in between to take same actions and optimize the code but it not does much... If you mean that you have to follow every asm instruction in your mind then it still not makes sense as a debugger does this work for you, you only set a breakpoint at the point you want to 'freeze' the application. If not use a debugger then yes you need to 'think' like a machine and do every single instruction with your brain and store/read the data every time starting from the entry point. Nobody does this lol

I have been reversing engineering Android apps for about 2 years now. When i started out, i was so lost. But i think it was the best thing that could have ever happened to me because i developed my own techniques of re.
2:54 correction buddy: "low level languages" C, C++, are not low level languages, are high level languages, because they are written in human understandable language, not so abstract, low level is assembly language that still have some words close to the human one but are short instructions and is not portable because depends on which architecture you use, and have some instruction set, but is closer to Machine Language, C, C++ are high level languages, because no matter where you use the same syntax, not like in ASM if you use intel 8080, 4040, etc. is not same as 6800 or 68k motorola or AT&T, each one has a different structure as for example using registers to copy values with mov the destination and source switch, or they have different ways to put the register values, etc. C is high level, is lower than other languages because you can use pointers, addresses and even put a piece of asm in between (yes I agree with that) but still High Level language ;) Electrical Engineer here almost MA... Great video btw!
Glad someone else pointed it out. The real reason you want to learn C/C++ is because most games people want to hack are going to be written in that language, otherwise its just good to know the fundamentals of programming and then learn the syntax of that language you don't know.
This is a very interesting video! I've got an actual question about something that I didn't quite get throughout the video. What would you have to do to reverse engineer a game's savedata if it has a checksum. How do you do it?
@@99temporal yeah, just make your own checksum. All a checksum is, is a way of ensuring that the save data is unaltered, whether that be through bugs, or through cheating. If you know how the checksum is generated, then all you have to do is generate the checksum for your own custom data
As beginner Full-stack developer, I am deeply interested in topics such as low level computing and reverse engineering. but I am a bit overwhelmed and not sure if I should stick to improving my full stack skills or if I should jump right ahead into learning C. Any suggestions?
I say at least give C a try. Especially if you're interested in low level development and/or hacking, learning C/C++ will open up a whole new world to you that you might fall in love with and make your future career :)
As others have said, if you are deeply interested in the lower-level side of things, it wouldn’t hurt you to give C or C++ a try. You can certainly make a career out of those skills. Even if you don’t make a career out of it, it’s the most satisfying and interesting area of programming in my opinion and it can be a hobby. With that being said, if you’ve got your foot in the door as a full-stack developer, you should of course prioritize that if you enjoy it. Good luck brother!
Than you, thank you for mentioning the name of some debugging tools. They are not only just for cheating. They help me find bugs in my codes. I subscribed.
Assembly is kind of my kryptonite. How do you approach assembly? Also what tools are you using in this video? How does IDA pro compare with ghidra? Can you crack Ida pro via reverse engineering?
"How do you approach assembly?" --> Assembly = human-readable machine code. Every CPU-executable program ever written (and will be written for some time to come) has to run as machine code for the CPU to understand. How do you learn? There is, literally, no other way to do this than getting your hands dirty. There's huge tomes of tutorial info via Google. 1st things first, choose your platform - PC? Console? Mobile? - then choose your CPU - base that off the kinds of games + platforms you want to crack. Good luck. Warning - it's very difficult to become good at assembly...not an expert...just good!
That makes sense. He said in the video that learning reverse engineering requires doing reverse engineering. This is just an overview. Kinda like reading the table of contents of a book, but not the book itself
indresting i didn't knew for this debugger too. All those years i need debugging applications i use only x64dbg for c/c++ and dnspy for c# (and devenv.exe when i debug my own code in VS)
some time ago I wanted to learn gamehacking, even tho now I stopped learning it I still watch your vids cause they are so amazing! you could make much more views if your vids weren't centered about gamehacking but you still choose to do so! respect
the fact that i specifically only learned c and c++ and had a general understanding of assembly just before watching this video is crazy its destiny 💯💯💯💯
The guy who built our custom alert system for temperatures in a cryofarm was unfortunately let go. His application uses secret commands only he knows to communicate with the Microcontroller that's actually reading the sensors. Hopefully this will allow me to atleast figure out what they are!
great video but PLEASE get a mic screen - the plops are killin ... PS: add a low cut. listening to this video on a subbed hifi is really bad in the low frequencies (40-80hz)
man, if I didnt work so much I would love to take a good programming course. I find this stuff so fascinating, even if I dont fully understand everthing going on
can I ask a question? So I am practicing to become a c# developer so I am using sql , my question is can reverse engineering be used to obtain information on a database? Like are stored procedures enough to secure your database?
Unless the database is encrypted, the data can be read from the database without any special authorization. That's why you only want to store data that cannot be easily used against you, so encrypt any passwords you store (with SHA256 at least, never MD5)
As someone who loves to learn the low level aspects of this stuff I would love to see a video of how exactly I can experiment with this stuff without potentially getting banned from games that I enjoy! How do you setup an environment that allows you to test on games (that allow you to test on of course) and won’t get you banned if you accidentally leave a program running in the background and start up a game with anti-cheat. Also what games and resources are out there for me to test on? I can already apply some of this stuff on “Assault Cube” but what’s the next step? Thanks! 😊
Awesome vid👍 when I first started reverse engineering was kinda overwhelming and difficult. I would go in with a goal and most of the time fail😂 but I kept at it now I can sometimes find what I need. Just need to learn a bit of asm as rn I heavily rely on the pseudocode.
@@ozgurpeynirci4586 compilers can convert your high level code to asm too. The real use of asm is only when efficiency is 1st priority and not sastified by compiled source. Hackers using hooks to create a jump instruction where they want, then execute their own compiled code (from a injected DLL for example) and then jump back to the original code to continue execution
I love how I was thinking about how changing programming languages from Cheat Engine to another program like C++ and when I was thinking about it you started mentioning Cheat Engine lmao
hello there. I know it has been a month but I was wondering, what learning resources you recommend for reverse engineering? any media is fine, but if you have videos that would be really helpful. And better yet, if it is free. Anyway, thanks!
also i have a question, i am confused between windows and linux... what should I use as my main developer PC, currently I am a Computer science student and wants to explore various fields inside Computer Science like AI, reverse engineering, cyber security, full stack, etc I am interested in most of them!! Thankyou in advance :)
Step 1: Learn c++ or the language the game/app/site is in. Step 2: Learn the basics of reverse engineering Step 3: Do more research and practice and maybe even make your own basic app and hack it.
In addition to the understanding of assembler and high level languages, it's important and very fast to reverse-engineer by looking for APIs used by the game or target software. Almost all code is 70% SDK/API Libraries etc, 30% is the unique logic that glues the product together. Often the base API reference design is used for the target product software. Having an open mind and being able to think like the SW designer is important. Reverse-Engineering is also used in the legal system, product safety and testing.
I've had a thought. Could you bypass some sorts of anticheats by having the whole game and anticheats install and run in a sandbox? Like have it run in its own little container so that it can't see other programs and other folders. Then you could just have dummy folders and programs so that the anticheats and game think it's all okay
Probably permissions higher than the game, eg like where windows has many different levels of account permissions Guest Standard Elevated user Administrator And the fun one System
Hey! I started watching you some months ago and i really love your content and the way you explain things in the video =D As a suggestion, i would like you to make a video teaching how to make kernel aimbot (like a part 2 for the external overlay) Much love and keep doing this shit cuz its cool
so ghidra is breaking the file to the assembly language which i guess could make senes because not all files are created with the same program language but almost all are breaking down to assembly because assembly was used to create all of them whether directly or indirectly

can I ask a question? So I am practicing to become a c# developer so I am using sql , my question is can reverse engineering be used to obtain information on a database?
Like are stored procedures enough to secure your database?
Unless the database is encrypted, the data can be read from the database without any special authorization. That's why you only want to store data that cannot be easily used against you, so encrypt any passwords you store (with SHA256 at least, never MD5)
This channel is pure gold
thank you :))
As someone who loves to learn the low level aspects of this stuff I would love to see a video of how exactly I can experiment with this stuff without potentially getting banned from games that I enjoy!
How do you setup an environment that allows you to test on games (that allow you to test on of course) and won’t get you banned if you accidentally leave a program running in the background and start up a game with anti-cheat. Also what games and resources are out there for me to test on? I can already apply some of this stuff on “Assault Cube” but what’s the next step?
Thanks! 😊
Awesome vid👍 when I first started reverse engineering was kinda overwhelming and difficult. I would go in with a goal and most of the time fail😂 but I kept at it now I can sometimes find what I need. Just need to learn a bit of asm as rn I heavily rely on the pseudocode.
Please upload a video every day
Should I be able to write code in assembler, or is it enough to know how to read code to crack the DRM protection of games?
You have to write assembly to crack drm
@@ozgurpeynirci4586 compilers can convert your high level code to asm too. The real use of asm is only when efficiency is 1st priority and not sastified by compiled source.
Hackers using hooks to create a jump instruction where they want, then execute their own compiled code (from a injected DLL for example) and then jump back to the original code to continue execution
I think you would have enjoyed the 'golden age' of games programming in assembly - the 80's-90's (C64/Spectrum/Amiga/ST....6510/Z80A/68000).
FINALLY FINALLY, IT IS SO RARE
I love how I was thinking about how changing programming languages from Cheat Engine to another program like C++ and when I was thinking about it you started mentioning Cheat Engine lmao
Whats that font? It's so clean, its so perfect
Dis is d kind of stuff people could share, ride on bro.😉😉
Great videos, I hope you keep them going ❤
hello there. I know it has been a month but I was wondering, what learning resources you recommend for reverse engineering? any media is fine, but if you have videos that would be really helpful. And better yet, if it is free. Anyway, thanks!
great video cazz
Get a pop filter for your mic! Otherwise great video. Keep it up!
also i have a question, i am confused between windows and linux...
what should I use as my main developer PC, currently I am a Computer science student and wants to
explore various fields inside Computer Science like AI, reverse engineering, cyber security, full stack, etc
I am interested in most of them!!
Thankyou in advance :)
Good video.
One hint: Maybe use something to protect your mic of breathing into it. It will improve your mic and voice quality in the videos :)
Can't escape the snail 3:40
Step 1: Learn c++ or the language the game/app/site is in.
Step 2: Learn the basics of reverse engineering
Step 3: Do more research and practice and maybe even make your own basic app and hack it.
Thank you for this information.
I would like to call reverse engineering a modification rather than hacking
Good explanation
the 1st hack i ever done was change price of items in the shops to 0 n weapon damage to 999999. i just edit the json files using notepad.
Your actually a legend
Thanks dude
daddy cazz coming in clutch once again for my stupidness
In addition to the understanding of assembler and high level languages, it's important and very fast to reverse-engineer by looking for APIs used by the game or target software. Almost all code is 70% SDK/API Libraries etc, 30% is the unique logic that glues the product together. Often the base API reference design is used for the target product software. Having an open mind and being able to think like the SW designer is important.
Reverse-Engineering is also used in the legal system, product safety and testing.
I've had a thought. Could you bypass some sorts of anticheats by having the whole game and anticheats install and run in a sandbox? Like have it run in its own little container so that it can't see other programs and other folders. Then you could just have dummy folders and programs so that the anticheats and game think it's all okay
Probably permissions higher than the game, eg like where windows has many different levels of account permissions

Standard
Elevated user
Administrator
And the fun one System
you could but you would have to own or rent a significant amount of property to the point you may as well make ur own video game for that much
AWESOME VIDEO
Thanks for a new video!
great welldone bro
2:30 C# is on top
in 99.999% of cases it's not a good thing for a appication to be easy decompilable
Thx for this wonderful video.
Hey cazz, do you know the if iaito or cutter is the better option these days? Thanks!
new learning ty
good luck to you!!
Great content! Do a video about obfuscating programs
Thanking for this video.
Hey! I started watching you some months ago and i really love your content and the way you explain things in the video =D
As a suggestion, i would like you to make a video teaching how to make kernel aimbot (like a part 2 for the external overlay)
Much love and keep doing this shit cuz its cool
For sure in the future brother 👌👌
As italian, I appreciate your name
So the best way to start trying to learn reverse engineering would be to start poking around assembly in one of these programs?
3:51
but You can also modify assembly with it tho.
Nice video bro

Great video
so ghidra is breaking the file to the assembly language which i guess could make senes because not all files are created with the same program language but almost all are breaking down to assembly because assembly was used to create all of them whether directly or indirectly
素晴らしい動画をありがとうございます
I used to be one of the best at this kind of thing in the 90s and 2000s
yoo that's so nice bro thanks for showing us the basics
It’s my pleasure 😇
