[Guide]How to unpack Sro_client.exe

After 4 hours of searching because nobody wanted to say me how i can unpack the Silkroad Client i found it out:D

First i must say in the future i use allways the tool "PEiD" :D
PEiD give you very fast an answer with which packer the programm is encrypted.

In our case the Sro_client.exe is packed with
AsProtect 2.1x SKE -> From Alexey Solodovnikov

Ok now we must search an unpacker programm.

The Programm to Unpack AsProtect 2.1 is called
"stripper"

I found on google 3 version and only the version
stripper v2.13 Beta 9 has gone by me .

Because the most virusprogramms shown that the programm is a Virus i will not post a Link to this tool!

So search self for "stripper v2.13 beta 9"
________________________________________

If you have the programm press "Open" and search your "sro_client.exe"
in the console the the message appear "Time - open sro_client.exe.."
then press only unpack and wait 5- 10 seks if it's finished it save automaticly a new exe in the same folder of your sro_client.exe

WOW I This Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you Pro

if u asked me i would have told you ;)

Wouldn't you use OllyDBG for most of this stuff?

Kind Regards

Thanks, I'll give that a try. I used some OllyDbg script, but it didn't work right. I ended up having to fix OEP myself and patch some code to get mine to work.

One thing to note is that PEiD incorrectly identifies the ASProtect version I think. I believe the correct version should be "Version: ASProtect 2.2 SKE build 04.25 Release [Extract]". You can download an ASProtect specific plugin for PEiD for this. To get it search for the text "ASProtect version detector V0.15.by PE_Kill" in Google and you should find it on a Reverse Engineering blog.

If you have Olly, you should get "ODbgScript" rather than the original OllyScript which provides more functionality and support for scripts. From there you should be able to find some ASProtect specific scripts to use. I've not found any that just work out of the box though, but I've not looked much since I can get the other method to work.

yo, the stripper won't open. it brings up the "WinRAR: Diagnostic message" box and it can't excute. You know whats up?

what is that good for ???

This is the only way to use Testosterone (Loader) atm :)

Don't unpack Silkroad.exe, unpack sro_client.exe. ;)
