I am going to have to buy a copy of RACE when it comes out.

A wiki basiclly allows anyone to edit a page an add any useful information.

The Visual Basic Decompiler wiki is at: http://catamaran.labs.cs.uu.nl/twiki/pt/bin/view/Transform/VisualBasicDecompilers

Usally I add to it when I find a new project being started be someone or find some more information.

I almost thought it was a mistake so I didn't say anything on exetools.

R.A.C.E. looks very good and gets better with each release, the part about the latest release that I like the most is the verbose mode for the pcode tokens, it gives so much information and a better understanding of what really is going on.

Edit: Updated the decompilation wiki with the url to the new home of R.A.C.E.

Welcome Sarge,

I owe you so much, you started my whole interest into vb decompiling, and decompiling in general with your pe skeleton. I have learned so much over the last year.

In regards to RACE
Three words OMG, that is the cleanest code I have ever seen.  Seriously.  It is just so pretty a comment for almost every line of code.   You are really light years ahead of me.
Commercial interests how much they paying you?

One warning about .US domains.  I heard you can no longer register them and the people who already had them were going to loose them after a year.

And some needs to bug Mr. Unleaded to get that board up again.

Still very curious about decompiler.org on how they are doing native code makes me wonder if they are just using a generic open source c++ decompiler and converting it.   Maybe one day I will try it out and see what it is all about.

Yeah that is my Semi VB Decompiler.

Orginally it was free and open source but then people started to take the code and resell, so then when I made it commercial.

Porting VB would be cool, I wanted to make basicly just a P-Code compiler that could be used.  
That's it for now I am really tired.

Added 45 More Games to the Arcade today.
Games can be found on the top forum menu near logout.
Or on the main page on the left hand side near the bottom.

Enjoy and try to get the highscore for as many games as you can!

I did little bit in Java took about two courses, and have several books on it, but so far haven't found a real reason for me to code in java, and with .Net I don't think I ever will.  Only time when I really thought about using java was either for a browser or cell phone based game.

Well my best guess is that it is some kind of phpbb exploit they were using an older version of  the phpbb software.  I am just glad they didn't delete any information, looks like they just renamed the admin account and added auto refresh links to a site, not really sure why. But O well.  

Its a shame I hope Mr Unleaded comes back soon, if not I wonder if alfa can fix it, pretty sure alfa has ftp access to the site.

And golem you should take a look at P32Dasm pretty close to P-Code decompiler.  Using a property database to get the property name for the VCallHresult calls, I am still a little lazy in doing that, maybe after school ends then maybe  I will find some extra time.

I currently do not offer any demo's for version 6.0.  The last demo I ever had has old 0.04 beta releases which I do not feel reflect the current version.
If you tell me what you are looking for then I can help you.
Native Code - No support except dissamebly of procedures
P-Code - partial support/ traslated to P-Code tokens basic things decompiled.

I emailed you the information.
Normally you can just go and download it but in some instances, not sure what the user uses or what browser they used, it won't redirect them to the login page.

Depends on what you mean by code,
but yes Semi VB Decompiler does handle VB5/6 dll files.
On the amount of code that can be recovered varies on whether it was compiled to P-Code or Native if it is P-Code then Semi VB Decompiler will recover some information.
I would say though 95% of the VB applications out there are compiled to Native, only time you really see P-Code is if the application was build with the learning edition of VB.

Welcome golem,

Yeah, this my project when ever I get some spare time, try to add some things here and there.  Mainly now I just need some good content or get some people to submit their work/projects.  I am a little lazy wanted to write some guides for various programming languages, and some basic map editors to get some people started in game development.  Just need some time.

You are welcome to post as much as you want in fact I encourage it!

Just started another new project. It is a VB 1/2/3 binary to text converter.
It is going pretty well. I actually like how I organized this one better than Semi VB Decompiler.

This will be released for free and mainly going to help me with my next part of Semi VB Decompiler

Update! First beta edition released at
http://www.visualbasiczone.com/freeware/

There is a button near the top next to log out that says Games
or you can go to this link
http://www.visualbasiczone.com/forums/activity.php

It is also located on the main page on the left panel near the bottom.

Here's what I am going to do.  I will do some research this weekend.   I am very busy for the next several days and will not be able to work on adding the feature if possible until at earliest this coming Tuesday.  If I think I can do it, I will either Email/PM you.

Currently Semi VB Decompiler does not recover global constants/variables.
I will have to do some research in how VB stores constants.  Probably possible for to add constant string recovery but for others not to sure.

For VB5/VB6
P-Code compiled applications it recovers the P-Code tokens of procedures/events.
Native compiled applications just a basic disassembly of the events.

For VB.net and other .Net applications (Not released yet for wait for 0.06 Release)
Does an IL disassembly of the entire application, just like ILDasm.

For VB4 32bit applications (Not released yet for wait for 0.06 Release)
Just recovers the forms for now until I do some more research on it.
