  • REMOVED - this feature is no longer available

  • Found SWF files can be edited in place and then served via proxy again

Settings

• Automatic deobfuscation
  • Application can automatically remove dead code and other obfuscated code. This is off by default as it can break decompilation of regular files.
• Simplify Expressions
  • Complex (often obfuscated) expressions are simplified to (usually)one value to make code more clear
• Parallel SpeedUp
  • Application can use parallel approach (threads) for reading SWF/decompilation to be faster
• Disable decompilation
  • AS decompilation can be disabled so only P-code is visible. This can be used if decompilation takes much time for example.
• Highlight document class on startup
  • FFDec can jump directly to AS3 document class after SWF opening
• Auto rename identifiers
  • On SWF opening, automatically execute "rename invalid identifiers" operation
• Open loaded SWFs while playing
  • If you run SWF with Run command in the menu or display in FlashPlayer in the FFDec, all SWFs which are loaded inside ActionScript while run will be then opened in FFDec. This applies to encrypted SWFs loaded from DefineBinaryData tags too. Useful for any kind of AS3 loader.
• Flatten ActionScript packages
  • ActionScript packages can be displayed either in package tree or in so called flattened mode, in which each package is shown as single line.
• Add FFDec to SWF files context menu
  • On windows platform, this can add "Open with FFDec" right click context menu to windows explorer
• Change language
• Advanced configuration for experts
