i've found a very nice newbie miniproject at

h**p://www.planet-repro.net/rms.php

zack's reverseme #1 and #2. Unfortunately all is in german, but you will see what's going on.

reverseme #1: add code to display a messagebox, msgbox api already in imports (level: easy)

reverseme #2: the same, but there's no import for the messagebox (level: middle). i've written a (german) tutorial for the second one, it's available for download at the same site.

i think this makes for a very interesting mini project.

Hi

This sounds like a good one figugegl. Unfortunately I'll have absolutely no time to join in or be of much help for a few weeks, but this sounds like a nice extension to the recent Import Table project. I might suggest trying to use IID King by SantMat to add whatever import(s) might be necessary (should be available at Protools), and then carefully examining the changes that were made and try to duplicate that manually.

While automagic tools are without doubt useful, it's always more fun, satisfying and instructional to be able to make changes to the PE file manually. Refer back to the Import Table project and the docs and information there for an understanding of the structure of the import table. Adding an import manually should give you a *solid* background for general modifications of the PE format.

Good luck and have fun,

Kayaker
