It's possible to steal resources even with simple hex editor, just will be time consuming if there will be many icons.

That's a good option - I should have listed it.
A ton of good BYOND games have been lost in time, or just have terrible owners that have no intention of trying to balance the game (Castle), even though the game was already well-balanced. Or LodeWars, I see alot of people say that was good, but I never got a chance to play it. |

He'd ban them from the BYOND hub because they are racist.

Not sure if you've noticed the hub of the game we're talking about. Take a look. >_>

As far as I know, Notepad doesn't read binary

Then you just put the resource file in a blank project, renaming it accordingly, and create a single verb making use of fcopy(). Then you can just fcopy() all the files out. |

fcopy() sounds like from DM. I'd never use BYOND to rip itself, it's just slow =p

You awake one day to find a DMB extractor in your hard drive, it decompiles the DMB almost flawlessly, what do you do? C would be the eaiset to go with, because more or less without trying to get alittle mild on language: a DMB decompiler is really just flat out a bitch to use, you'd be better off recoding the game form scratch unless you find a game that's worthy, which only SS13 and Icon Ultima would be worth the time, but if you did DMB Decompile IU, you'd just be shunned in the BYOND community. Or you could do good things like when Hobnob decompiled SS13 and improved it. |

You'd be decompiling something that is simpler to make than it is to sort through the decompiled code. You'd also probably get a lot of crap from the IU community just because you'd be in possession of things that you shouldn't be, i.e. Wiznet (which is really the only thing worth decompiling there). And IU has a pretty large following, so that is just a LOAD of crap. Not worth it. |

The entirety of the code averages out to marginally above average. Wiznet isn't that hard to get ahold of, either, since the exact same thing can be procured from my hub listing (Wiznet base datum and WSS). The only thing Wiznet-related to be gained is my password to the system, but there's much easier methods than a complete code decompile to get it. |
All they did was compromise my financial information.
