Lua Bytecode for Lua "readable"

Question

I just got a script that I want to make some changes, and I'm looking for someone to develop a freelance job for me, to do a loadstring, which I will give readable for editing.

Lua code is as follows:

------------------------- ENGINE --------------------- --- -----

code = '\ 27 \ 76 \ 117 \ 97 \ 81 \ 0 \ 1 \ 4 \ 4 \ 4 \ 8 \ 0 \ 56 \ 0 \ 0 \ 0 \ 64 \ 67 \ 58 \ 92 \ 85 \ 115 \ 101 \ 114 \ 115 \ 92 \ 74 \ 101 \

I want this to turn into human code. I was already looking for a topic and found that there are tools like Chuckspy , Luadec51 and Unluac that can do the job. Anyway, I have never programmed before in lua and have not gained compiler knowledge to accomplish this.

I'm looking for someone to help me, I have no idea how I will do this. thanks anyway

Answer 1

luac -l will output Lua bytecode in a human-readable form. With a basic understanding of the format of the Lua instruction, it is quite simple to manually turn it into source code.

As in other languages, automatic decompilers rarely create source code that is useful for understanding or editing code.
