Anyone who can manage to actually do this, has gotten a hell of a lot more than an e-peen upgrade. Try the equivalent to a masters in computer science, self-taught or otherwise.Do it yourself and then come back here to claim you e-penis upgrade.

Ha, you do realize that it would actually be quite a bit easier to write an entirely new custom firmware, pretty much from scratch, than it would be to decrypt and modify Gateway's current launcher, and likely more valuable to the community as well, right?Which is why I'm saying that he should stop begging for things on the forum. I would presume most users here who capable of achieving this are possibly university students under-graduates or post-graduates. I personally study at a University which provides some of the best research into Computing Science in Europe. The shit that I've seen from some of my friends who study in the department leads me to believe they would have other priorities. You can't exactly submit a reverse-engineered Gateway launcher file that's been decrypted as a project. Self taught, I can't really see anyone doing this at this level and I know this first hand. This is what, coded in C/C++, not exactly beginner material there.
So therefore, the one ring is trusted to you Gadorach! You will leave your job and your life to tirelessly crack this shit with only 4 hours sleep per day (not healthy but possible). May the force be with you and grant you a larger e-penis. Ganbattene!

Either way, I'm not the man for the job. Besides not having the time, I'm only self taught in C/C++ to an intermediate point at best, certainly not well enough to head this project. Palantine is already heading the current efforts, so I'd look to him if I were you. Plus, my free time is going into Miku, so it's not a priority for me either.
Well, if you're a pathogen biologist, you certainly can do a lot of shit, just not toward this particular objective.Exactly, there is practically no user here that is capable of performing this task alone. The pissed of CFW developers were working in group. Like you I'm just a hobbyist programmer with knowledge in Java, Python and Ruby. Entry level to C but I'm just a pathogen biologist. I can't do shit
I *should* be able to do it soon. I will release anything I do aswell.
"It" being, reversing the Gateway launcher, or making a seperate CFW as suggested above?
You could become the savior of all of us who don't have a gateway !Reversing the GW.

I do not have one, exactly why I want to do this. ;-)
Obfuscation was already explained, so I won't really take too much time explaining that. In addition to it, disassembling a binary does not provide 1:1 accurate results. This, coupled with obfuscation, makes reading the actual code of a binary incredibly difficult. Imagine it this way - you take a relatively thick book and as a whole book it works perfectly fine. Remove the page numbers, then remove the spine and the pages fall out (disassembly). Now, shuffle those pages up (obfuscation). When you're done, pour a cup of coffee onto the pile of randomly shuffled pages (inaccuracy). Good look putting that book back together - it's going to take you forever. It's not impossible, but it's a very difficult task that requires a lot of dedication. Arguably, it's "easier" to figure out how Gateway does things rather than actually disassembling their binaries and trying to replicate them.
