Case study

Aironauts: an early PlayStation decompilation of OUTROE.EXE

Aironauts-decomp reconstructs source for the OUTROE.EXE executable of the PAL PlayStation game Aironauts. It extracts the user's disc files, splits the executable into assembly and data, and attempts to rebuild an executable that passes the project's comparison check; current C work focuses on SDK functions.
