How to create a Hack Tool??

[Chachythehuman]

Can anybody make a tutorial about how to create an application that read/writes over a narc file?? Pls answer

Are you familiar with any programing languages? If so, I recommend looking up the narc file format and how to manipulate binary. If not, you should start with a programming language. There isn't some guide to making a ROM hacking tool without the use of a programming language.

Visual basic for example

If you know how to manipulate binary data then this article helps with finding the structure of the data.

the source in the thread has a narc handler in it and structs that define everything you would need to just read files from a narc. narc folders are a little more difficult, but you can find documentation on that.

if you used VB (VB.NET), maybe my library (on my github) will work on your project too since is used NET platform. Mainly written on C#, if i get extra time maybe it will running on mono too. For now i not sync that to github since is ... not complete for now, still finding better performance/method (considering to used java but ...). so far it can read/replace file on narc , edit directly to file or on the fly (memorystream), with some various extra function like hash calculation (md5/sha-1), export to hexadecimal view, ect (idea from my old tool, and this new library will replace my old method completely). Everything documented on my github account if is get released.

c++ is good start for you, already bit learning this language but still not used on main work/project . you can see source from bond697, is good to start to writing own code.
