As far as I know the psp cracking, hacking, homebrew etc is written in c & c++, so yes this would apply to you, as said previously read books, or look for online tutorials, there are literally thousands of them on the net that will start with very basic c or C++ programs.

thanks for the info guys i will look into this. ( im hopin to mod my GTA game )

how does visual basic help u hack



im almost done with learning the whole book but still, i dont see how you can do anything with visual basic


i guess i gotta wait till i get c++ or atleast java covered

i guess it helps with hex editing and reprogamming games

sorry im late for this but modding would be nearly impossible unless its allowed by the programer odds are GTA will never have mods atleast psp version or atleast this GTA maybe if psp users contact sony we could talk with them..we are the voice they need to hear..not much about homebrew is said in G.A.P. if anyone knows thats the gamer advisery panel sony put together to help them focus their games and ideas..but who knows its only the begginning

try the chaos computer club www.ccc.de /germany obviosly if you're from germany, check google for references

How is java and html gonna help you hack anything? This is the basics you need to learn:

1) C language. Forget about C++ for now unless you wanna build apps for PSP. C will give you a better understanding of the lower constructs pertinent to assembly language and CPU architecture. This is used for coding purposes.

2) PSP CPU architecture and assembly language. You must know how the CPU operates, e.g. registers, opcodes, etc., since part of hacking involves disassembly of the binaries. This is to know what we're dealing with.

3) Hacking techniques, e.g. buffer overflow, read books like "Code Warrior", "Hacker Disassembly Uncovered", "The Art of Exploitation", "Exploiting Software How to Break Code", and of course Phrack magazine. This is for actually trying out many types of exploits.

4) Linux. Learn how to install and administer this platform. It contains all you need to develop your programming skills as well as hacking skills. Hell, there are many applications full of holes for you to test your acquired skills. Hint: read about the latest buffer overflows in certain apps and try it out yourself.

Happy hacking.
