swsf_bruteforce

A performant, multithreaded, brute-forcer for scrambled cheat codes in Star Wars: Starfighter (JP) and Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter, written in modern C++20.

Building

You need:

• A C++20 compiler (MSVC 2022, Clang, GCC)
• Boost (I tested with 1.81, should work fine with 1.82 onwards)
• CMake

Windows

cmake -Bbuild -GNinja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build

Linux

$ cmake -Bbuild -GNinja -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native"
$ cmake --build build
`

# Usage

`./swsf_bruteforce -s [START_LENGTH] -l [LENGTH] -e 0xABCDABCD`

where:

`-s [START_LENGTH]` is the guessed start bound (greater than 2, less than end bound)
`-l [LENGTH]` is the guessed end bound (less than or equal to 8)
`0xABCDABCD` is the hash to use
