[Gc-linux-devel] Custom GC Tools

Hi,

I do multimedia hacking and I am interested in the multimedia formats
packaged on GameCube titles. To that end, I have written a utility that
mounts a GameCube disc image as part of the Linux filesystem:

The GC-Linux project has done a great job of documenting some of the
common multimedia formats like THP. It may take some binary reverse
engineering to get at some others like H4M (unless someone has some
intelligence not yet on the site?).

So it becomes necessary to disassemble .DOL files. Are there already
tools tailored for this specific task? (I did a little searching but
didn't find much.) If not, I have been working on a custom DOL
disassembler based on the "Simple PowerPC file and memory disassembler"
by Frank Wille. The tool works pretty well now and I hope to spruce in
up a bit and release it soon.

	Thanks...
