  • ImHex

    🔍 A Hex Editor for Reverse Engineers, Programmers and people who value their retinas when working at 3 AM.

    ImHex

    “A Hex Editor for Reverse Engineers, Programmers and people who value their retinas when working at 3 AM.”

    I actually used it not too long ago to inspect why a mp4 file wasn’t valid. The pattern language that they have is quite nice and having sections of the hex highlighted and being able to see what structures they represent and what data was on those structures was very useful!

    Seconding basically everything that's been said here, but should you ever find yourself in need of a good file converter, I like and use fre:ac (www.freac.org), an open source Swiss army knife for audio formats.

  • openspades

    Compatible client of Ace of Spades 0.75

    • Project mention: Open source Diablo 1 engine – DevilutionX 1.5.0 released | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-17

    Ace of Spades is one. I usually play with the OpenSpades client[1], but there is also Betterspades[2], and probably many other clients I don't know of yet. There are usually about 10-50 players online on the public servers listed on BuildAndShoot[3], variable depending on the time of day and mostly from Latin America it seems.

    One can host the game with piqueserver[4]. I'm not sure if one can still host with the original Ace of Spades server, but the game was 'shut down' in 2019 so maybe not.

  • libriscv

    C++20 RISC-V RV32/64/128 userspace emulator library

    • Project mention: Ask HN: Looking for a project to volunteer on? (November 2023) | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-02

    Seeking: https://github.com/fwsGonzo/libriscv

    This is a C++ RISC-V emulator that focuses on isolating a single process, aka userspace emulation. I am currently working mostly on binary translation, and recently I have made a push to move it from experimental state to fully supported. Another experimental feature is embedding libtcc and using that for binary translation. It is fairly fast to compile, and gives decent speedups. The challenge is what to do now that (perhaps) some low hanging fruits have been picked.
