Case study

SF1DISASM: a reassemblable Shining Force disassembly

SF1DISASM documents Shining Force as structured, commented 68k assembly and provides scripts to rebuild the US ROM. Its split step extracts data chunks from the user's original ROM before the build step assembles the source and extracted data. The project aims for a rebuilt ROM identical to the original.
