Sad to see new Teams not releasing their free tools.

[GraphiX2004]

I've been in the reverse scene for quite a while now, back in 1990's you seen 30-40 forums/groups just like this one,
Where nearly all the groups released their tools on their websites.

 

i had years ago so many tools on an old CD back from the 90's.

 

Still to the day the groups are growing, the boom in team's releasing stuff on the net, is 10 times as much as the older days!.

But the programs they are all using, sadly nothing seems to get leaked/shared to the public who's interested in learning about reversing etc.

 

This community seem's to be the only one that's stood the test of time and not a great big 404 or This domain is for sale.

Really is sad to see the whole challenge of Reverse engineering slow down as much as this.

 

So well done for keeping the site and community going! Which brings me to a quick question

 

Since this "type" of forum/community/website, seems to be one of the very last ones in existance! (Complete Goldmine if you ask me).

How come the main website of tools isn't updated regular with the newer versions of tools?

 

Personally if i owned the one and only most popular RARE "tools" website on the net, it would give me the incentive to make sure it's downloads sections are updated daily with the latest findings.

Unless the point being is for people to join the forums to find the newest tools?

 

Either way great job, and thank you for keeping one of the oldest sites going for so long!

no offense bro, but y should people here care about u? for coder to care u have to pay $$$. they cant make tools public because theyll be ripped and profitted by companies. i hope they continue keep private.

I usually allocate specific time to update the main page, it's adhoc I know.

 

If there are some tools on there that have not been updated let me know about it. I don't always know unless the author(s) inform me or I happen to find out myself...

@GraphiX2004: Team tools are usually private for a team, because the team uses it to aid revesing for protections. Why would you give you 'skills' away to other teams and random people?

Another painful thing about releasing tools/scripts is that random people start thinking they can reverse the protection after they used the tool for some days/weeks. In reality they don't know shit and they just brag about skills they took from a skilled tool coder. This specific reason stops me from releasing various tools I did to the public, people should learn something themselves and my friends can have any tool they want, I know they won't brag with skills they don't have.

EDIT: Some tools are released though. Together with cypher, deepzero and Aguila we worked on TitanEngine Community Edition for example. TE Community Edition, Scylla, ScyllaHide, x64_dbg are all tools released to the public because certain skill is needed to use these tools and they don't spoil the fun

Another painful thing is these same people telling you that your wonderful tool doesn't do this and that.
