[Doom] Looking for a way to find encryption key

Post by adol365 »

Hi, is there a way to retrieve encryption "key" from exe file?
Here is the exe file. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8JGJb ... sp=sharing
And here is the encrypted lang files. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8JGJb ... sp=sharing

It seems that exe file contains encryption "key" for lang files.

Open the exe in disassembler then look for references the the debug/log strings.

Unfortunately, encryption key is dynamic.

Oh my god.. Though the result is bad news, thanks for your research.
Hmm.. I have one question. Would the game read decrypted text which is extracted from dump file?
I mean extract text from dump file and rearrange it to original script form and replace it to encrytped game script.

Here is dump text section from Doom demo version(free).

And here is the original dump file from Doom demo version[English mode].
