How to obtain knowledge like D2functions.cpp? #13

Hi! I'm pretty intrigued by your tool and, a developer myself, got interested in how one can create such a mod. I stumbled upon D2functions.cpp - how on god's earth did you obtain that knowledge? Is there a modding guide out there? Which tooling did you use to obtain the initial knowledge on how to mod Diablo 2 features? Lots of assembler in there too...

Nice work guys!

Reverse Engineering with OllyDbg for almost everything. The Phrozen Keep is a very good starting point
