Hello dear community,
Today, i will teach you how to mod x86 libs. x86 is not that hard to understand because the instruction are almost the same as ARM. In this tutorial, i mod the game called The Sandbox 2.
You don't really need to mod x86 at all since I never heard any problem with ARM translating to x86, and it's too hard to change instruction without code caving. Just wanna make tutorial lol
Now let's start modding.
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to mod The Sandbox Evolution very easy in x86.
First of all, you need IDA PRO and Any HEX editor installed on your computer. If you already have them installed, go to next step
Open the APK file with WinRar and extract the lib folder (In case you want to mod both x86 and ARM)
Open the x86 .so file in IDA. You will see the dialog box similar to the following:
In x86, you don't need to change anything. MetaPC is fine. Click OK to disassemble the lib file, and let it fully load. After that, press CTRL + F, search "isElementUnlocked" and double click on the function to open it
Remember the offset (9869E0) of first instruction. we need to use it later.
Note: The offset will change each update.
Open Hex Workshop or other hex editing program, and search the offset. I'm using Hex Workshop
Here is the offset of isElementUnlocked
The function isElementUnlocked is a boolean function, which means it can return true or false. If you want unlock everything, replace it with b8 01 00 00 00 c3, which will return true.
True is:
False is:
And return is:
When you open the modded .so file in IDA, your modded instruction will look like:
Isn't that easy?
You can also do the same on hasBoughtPromoPack to unlock premium
If you want to hack mana like 9999999, search getManaBalance and giveMana, and replace it with any values you want
You can use online x86 Assembly to get raw hex
Online x86 and x64 Intel Instruction Assembler
Open the APK with WinRAR and replace the modded .so file. Re-sign the APK, install it and run the game.
