what to do to start coding hex files?

[Data Hacker]

i want to start coding hex files for my own rapidfire codes (which i will post here of course ) but i have no idea how to start. what programs do i need and what programming language should i know? is there any tutorials on how to make rapid fire codes from scratch without any noob programs like dag sleeper? like actual coding is needed to make? Thanks!

learn asm to code put in on google "googligum electronics" best tutorials on the net tbh

if you want that pm cazy modder or hyper they write rapidfire codes

Googligum electronics is a great place to start. I recommend going there and reading everything you can. Also learn the entire .PDF on the 12f683 since you will most likely be using that chip. It is also very important to know how electricity works.

or you can learn off your own back doing exactly what i said and follow these tuts

argh ive always wanted to learn assembly for reverse engineering but it seemed so hard and people said if i learned c++ first it would be easier so ive been trying to learn some c++...do you guys that know assembly did u learn c++ before it?

not sure mate but them tutorials are awesome for beginners and id suggest do all the hands on work it really helps the learning process

yes you want to learn C or ASM, remember you arent writing hex codes the compiler does that for you.

I started with asm and then moved on to C, its good to do it this way as it helps you understand what the C code you are writing actually does, but its up to you.

like hyper says it helps to understand assembly then move on to C.   Most schools teach micros that way, and most students glaze over the assembly and never look back.  However have fun reading spec sheets and debugging a C code with no knowledge of assembly, it can be done but eventually it will catch up with you and make your life extremely difficult.

Hex is just a bunch of hexidecimal values.  Assembly really just associates labels with their hex values so that humans can read it and understand.  C is a higher level language meaning it should be simpler to follow and write then assmebly because the higher level takes care of little things like setting proper bits in registers, handiling memory locations, and clearing flag bits, however understand that when C is compiled it is compiling it to assembly language at which point is is converted to Hex or machine language.

well i learned objective-c and trying to learn asm. i find it easier but be patient and read as much as you can!
