Title: WHDLoad SDK
Post by: bloodline on November 06, 2003, 04:40:53 PM

Hi there, does anyone know how WHDload works, It's really clever, It can load custom loader games and even patch them in the process, BRILIANT!!!

Is there an SDK that shows how to build patches for WHDLoad to load games with?

Sometimes, I think I'm just sitting in a small room staring at a wall, and every now and then someone opens the door and shouts something interesting at me...  :-P  :lol:

Ok, some feindishly clever asm guy, write an installer patch that allows the RTG version of AB3D2 to work for more than 15 seconds :-)

@bloodline

Some experience is  game hacking/cracking/patching is especially helpful inorder to get games to at least run as is knowledge of asm.  If you are used to jumping in mem with ya ole action replay or similar and knowing what your seeing/changing, shouldhave a nice time writting patches/installs ;)
