DeAMX Decompiler for Developers

This document describes DeAMX, a Lua script-based decompiler that converts .amx files to .pwn files. It can be used free of charge and modified/redistributed with attribution. The author is not responsible for how it is used. DeAMX requires Lua and can be run by placing the files in a folder with Lua or the Lua folder, then running with Lua and specifying the .amx file path. Recent changes include improved function argument and return type recognition.

Licence

You may:
- Use this program free of charge
- Modify it
- Redistribute it with your changes, provided you keep
the name of the original author (i.e. don't pretend you
made it all by yourself) and this licence, and mention
that you changed it (plus eventually what changes you made).
- Use parts of this program in your own scripts, again
provided you mention that you used code from DeAMX and
name its author.

You are not allowed to:


- Distribute this program, with or without changes, with the
name of the author and/or this licence removed, and/or with
the claim that you or someone else than the original author
made it, because you didn't.
- Sell this program or a derivation of it.

Disclaimer:

The author is in no way responsible for what you do with this


decompiler. You are not allowed to decompile someone else's
script and re-release it as your own script, unless explicitely
approved by the script's author.

Usage

DeAMX is a collection of Lua scripts, which means you need


Lua to run it. If you don't have Lua yet, you can get it for
free from the official download page:
http://luabinaries.luaforge.net/download.html

Once you have Lua, there are two ways to decompile a script:
- Place the .lua files and the .bat file in some folder,
edit the bat file in a text editor like Notepad, and make
sure the path to lua5.1.exe is correct. Save the file and
close it.

To run, open a command prompt in the folder where you placed


deamx, and type:

deamx path\to\amxfile.amx

- Or, place the .lua files in the folder where you installed
Lua, open a command prompt in the Lua folder, and type:

lua5.1 deamx.lua path\to\amxfile.amx

In both cases, the .amx file will be decompiled and the


resulting code will be placed in a .pwn file in the same
directory as the .amx file.
