Unplanned Outage

Wed, 29 Apr 2026 12:24:22 +0000

Apologies for the downtime! There was a broken repo update rolled out over the weekend and hosting stated they were to fix it. In between then and now they said they sent me emails I haven't received, requesting information from me, and chat support repeatedly didn't update the support ticket with the information I provided. It has been a debacle. It did not help being a long weekend here and me being busy. In the end, when I was available, I had to tidy things up and get the last of the issues fixed up. If you experience any problems please let me know so that I can check it out, and get it resolved, thank you... Ted.

Spoiler text not hidden in the sidebar "Posts" block

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 16:31:56 +0000

When we put a text into spoiler block, the natural assumption would be that it's hidden until someone intentionally clicks to open it. Currently, it doesn't work like in the sidebar:

New Registration Rules for the second quarter of the 21st century

Wed, 12 Mar 2025 20:54:08 +0000

As our rules are rather old, tired, dry and stale, I have rewritten and freshened them up for this next quarter century: **Welcome to Tuts 4 You!** *Where reverse engineering meets reverse humor!* Before you dive into our treasure trove of knowledge, take a moment to read through our rules. Think of them as the "terms and conditions" of our community, but with fewer naps and more laughs. --- ### **00. Index** 01. Your Expected Behaviour and Attitude (aka Don’t Be a Troll) 02. How to Best Post For Help? (aka Google is Your Friend) 03. I Am New to Reverse Code Engineering - Where to Start? (aka Buckle Up, Buttercup) 04. Should I Learn Coding or Programming? (aka Yes, Duh) 05. Ignoring Other Members (aka The Block Button is Your Bestie) 06. Thanking Posts (aka The "Like" Button Exists for a Reason) 07. Uploads, Downloads & Files (aka Download at Your Own Risk) 08. Help and Support (aka We’re Here, But We’re Not Magicians) 09. Your Personal Details and Profile (aka Don’t Be Shady) 10. Logging in to the Community (aka Use Your Real Email, Not Your Cat’s) 11. Scene Warez (aka No Pirate Booty Allowed) 12. Banners / Signatures / Avatars (aka Keep It Classy, Not Flashy) 13. Crack & Unpack Requests (aka Don’t Even Think About It) 14. Incentives & Monetary Rewards (aka No Bribes, Please) 15. Spam and Bots (aka Go Away, Skynet) 16. Disposable Email Addresses (aka We See You, Ghost Rider) 17. Privacy Statement (aka We’re Not Selling Your Data… Probably) 18. Deleting Accounts (aka You Can Check Out, But You Can Never Leave) 19. Warnings, Suspensions & Bans (aka Play Nice or Get Booted) 20. Sign Up Process & Security Check (aka Prove You’re Human) 21. Complaints and Moderating Issues (aka Don’t @ Us Without Proof) 22. Intellectual Property (aka Don’t Steal Stuff, It’s Rude) 23. Contact Us (aka We’re Listening… Sometimes) 24. Finally! (aka Be Cool, Stay Cool) --- ### **01. Your Expected Behaviour and Attitude** This is a family-friendly community, so keep it PG-13. No swearing, no flaming, and definitely no CAPS LOCK RANTS. We’re here to learn, not to audition for a soap opera. If someone’s being a jerk, report them. Don’t engage—let the mods handle it. We’ve got ban hammers, and we’re not afraid to use them. --- ### **02. How to Best Post For Help?** Step 1: Use the search bar. Step 2: Use Google. Step 3: Use your brain. Step 4: If all else fails, post your question with *actual details*. Pro tip: If your post looks like “halp plz fix,” you’re doing it wrong. --- ### **03. I Am New to Reverse Code Engineering - Where to Start?** Reverse engineering is like eating an elephant—start small, chew slowly, and don’t choke. Here’s a starter kit: - Learn assembly language (it’s like learning Klingon, but useful). - Get familiar with tools like IDA Pro, Ghidra, and OllyDbg. - Accept that you’ll spend 90% of your time confused. That’s normal. --- ### **04. Should I Learn Coding or Programming?** Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Yeeeeeeeeees. If you’re new, start with Python. It’s like the training wheels of programming. Once you’re comfortable, move on to C/C++ or Assembly. Or don’t. We’re not your mom. --- ### **05. Ignoring Other Members** Found someone annoying? Use the ignore button. It’s like a mute button for humans. --- ### **06. Thanking Posts** If you like a post, hit the "Like" button. If you don’t, hit the "Ignore" button. If you post “thx” or “kudos,” we’ll hit the "Warning" button. --- ### **07. Uploads, Downloads & Files** Downloading files here is like eating gas station sushi—do it at your own risk. If something looks sketchy, report it. --- ### **08. Help and Support** Need help? Post in the right forum. If you post in the wrong place, we’ll move it. If you keep doing it, we’ll move *you*… to the banned list. --- ### **09. Your Personal Details and Profile** Keep your profile info accurate. If you lie about your age, gender, or species, we’ll know. (Yes, we’re onto you, lizard people.) --- ### **10. Logging in to the Community** Use your email and password. If you forget them, use the “Forgot Password” button. If you forget how to use that button, maybe reverse engineering isn’t for you. --- ### **11. Scene Warez** No cracks, no warez, no “plz fix this game for me.” We’re here to learn, not to pirate. --- ### **12. Banners / Signatures / Avatars** Avatars? Yes. Banners and signatures? No. Keep it simple, folks. --- ### **13. Crack & Unpack Requests** Want a crack? Go somewhere else. Want to learn how to crack? Stick around. --- ### **14. Incentives & Monetary Rewards** Offering money for cracks? That’s a ban. Offering money for pizza? That’s cool. --- ### **15. Spam and Bots** Spam = instant ban. Bots = instant ban. Spam bots = instant ban + shame. --- ### **16. Disposable Email Addresses** If you use a disposable email, we’ll assume you’re a bot. Or a spy. Either way, you’re gone. --- ### **17. Privacy Statement** We don’t sell your data. We don’t spam you. We don’t even know what you did last summer. --- ### **18. Deleting Accounts** Want to delete your account? Too bad. Your posts live forever. Think before you post. --- ### **19. Warnings, Suspensions & Bans** 3 warnings = timeout. 4 warnings = permanent ban. Don’t be that guy. --- ### **20. Sign Up Process & Security Check** If you can’t pass the security check, maybe reverse engineering isn’t your thing. --- ### **21. Complaints and Moderating Issues** Got a complaint? Be polite. If you’re rude, we’ll ignore you. --- ### **22. Intellectual Property** Don’t steal stuff. If you do, we’ll delete it. If you keep doing it, we’ll delete *you*. --- ### **23. Contact Us** Use the contact form. Include your email. If you don’t, we can’t reply. It’s not rocket science. --- ### **24. Finally!** Be kind, be helpful, and don’t be a jerk. Together, we can make this community awesome. Or at least mildly entertaining. Now go forth and reverse engineer responsibly! 🚀

Cannot login from another device.

Wed, 04 Jan 2023 09:40:22 +0000

I cannot login to the forum from another device. I got the message: "Verification Required or verify using another method." "Answer a security question" does not work. "Log in from a prevoiusly used device" works but I cannot change security settings "Get an email to recover access" does not work.

What is the answer to your security question?

What is the answer to your security question?

Sun, 20 Nov 2022 13:05:24 +0000

Hi guys and gals, I experimented the following behavior: Basically the actual question doesn't show up. Had anyone the same behavior? Is that intentional (the question has to be missing)? Luckily I remember my security-question, but I guess it should be shown ... or not? I didn't check with browser's "inspection" tools (I'm afraid) ... might it be the dark theme? Thanks in advance and Sorry for the bother. Regards, Tony

Private messages merged together

Wed, 17 Nov 2021 12:08:10 +0000

Hello Teddy, if someone sends me several private messages without me responding in the meantime, the new forum engine merges them into a one message, and doesn't show me a notification when 2nd or 3rd message arrives. It causes situations when I inadvertently ignore someone just because forum did not alert me about the new messages. It also forces me to read old messages again and again - just in case forum engine decided to append new information to the message had I already read. Is this something that can be fixed?

Upsurge of illegal "warez" posts.

Fri, 31 Jul 2020 12:34:23 +0000

Hello everyone. For some time now any registered member of the forum can upload or download copyrighted content that is illegally shared and hosted on the forum. Indeed, not only are there disruptive elements within this community, but in addition they allow themselves to use the forum as a platform for retrieving pirated and / or stolen content. Here is a non-exhaustive list of these positions: - https://forum.tuts4you.com/topic/42411-armdot-source-code/ - https://forum.tuts4you.com/topic/42159-beds-protector-private/ - https://forum.tuts4you.com/topic/42391-cawk-vm-open-source/ - https://forum.tuts4you.com/topic/42210-atomic-obfuscator-90-open-source/ 1) The first item is copyrighted software which has nothing to do here. Not only can we download the software, but we can also view its source code, which is a violation of digital copyright law and a violation of reverse engineering laws. 2) The other three are not copyrighted software, but remain private projects. - For example the second subject, "Beds protector -> private <-" includes in its title directly the information that it is a sharing of a private project. So while the software or the code behind the software is not currently regulated, should everyone be allowed to share private code? - The third subject concerns a private project, once again, of one of our emeritus member, Cawk [https://forum.tuts4you.com/profile/90434-cawk/]. Those who speak with him or those who have had the chance to communicate with him know very well that he kept this project private in order to sell it. He had already sold one of his private project on this forum. Out of pure respect I wonder if it makes him happy to see his private projects shared with impunity on a forum he appreciated. - The last one has already been the subject of a DMCA complaint [https://i.imgur.com/V4GjHXR.png] but I want to add something even more serious in my opinion: if you do not know what is " atomic-obfuscator ", you can imagine that it is a paid private obfuscator, which had a very small number of users. Now if you type the name of the project on Google you will find its shared source code several times, in different versions of the project, and this in a systematic way. What I am targeting here is the relentlessness that certain users allow themselves towards other users and their projects. If we refer to the forum rules, since the first sharing of private content on the forum by the user "localhost0" we can observe several repeated violations of the rules: - "01. Your Expected Behavior and Attitude": what good attitude would allow you to share private code on semi-public forums? None. - "07. Uploads, Downloads & Files": the leaked and cracked versions of the programs mentioned above are expressly hosted on the forum, or use the forum's hosting platform. In other words, the forum is currently hosting illegal content. - "11. Scene Warez": A bit for the same reasons, but if only it was disparate; we can see that the user "localhost0" is ONLY sharing leaked code or private project source code. - "22. Intellectual Property": It goes without saying that all of this content hosted on the forum is subject to violation of the intellectual property code. I am not a lawyer but in my humble opinion there is no need to get a PhD in digital law to understand the problem. What I propose: - The "Packer and Protector release" section must be reworked, or be moderated: our newly created topic must be approved by a moderator before being visible, in order to prevent sharing of illegal content or sensitive.

Why are many files lost in the download area of the forum？

Tue, 28 Jul 2020 01:10:34 +0000

In the past, forum can download a lot of tools, OD plug-ins, etc., but now they are lost.

Security Question Bypass

Wed, 15 Jul 2020 16:13:28 +0000

This forum has a login system and for "Human"-Verification it asked (me atleast) to scan a QR-Code to get a key that then verifies that im a human. But first of all, if you have a bot it can easily scan the code itself with the help of some github repos or even easier, you can just open the QR-Image in a new tab and the filename is the key. soooo.. I dont know if you guys already know/care about this but you can also just let it away because anyone who wants to bypass it, can easily do that.

Reupload Immunity Debugger plugins and scripts to Downloads section

Your content will need to be approved by a moderator

Sun, 14 Jun 2020 16:54:15 +0000

1. Why? 2. If must so, can it be shown here when it is approved: For example, when a reply submit in 2020-1-1, and it is approved in 2020-1-3, then it can't be show there forever, since the forum only show the lastest submitted rather than the lastest approved.
