reverse engineering an unknown hash function
reverse engineering an unknown hash function
The game I am working with (red alert iPhone) stores file names in the VFS as hashes. I am trying to reverse engineer the hash algorithim but I dont understand enough about ARM assembly to do so. Anyone got any tips on reverse engineering this hash (or figuring out the ARM assembly?)

That's not going to be easy, as the ARM compilers/emulators for your PC out there are frankly lacking substance to be helpful. I've been trying to do this with a Nintendo DS game, to no avail.

If it helps, I actually found the hash function itself in the mach-0 binary thanks to the symbol table.
