===== OllyDbg =====

{{outpost_2:technical review:ollydbgicon.png }}

The Outpost Universe does not have access to the Outpost 2 source code. In order to modify Outpost 2, the compilied code had to be reviewed and documented. This eventually led to the Outpost 2 SDK ([[op2_sdk:software_development_kit_sdk|see the Outpost 2 SDK Page]]) that allows for creating new Outpost 2 scenarios and in general improving Outpost 2's performance on newer computers. To review the compiled code, OllyDbg was used.

OllyDbg is a 32-bit assembler level analysing debugger for Microsoft® Windows®. Emphasis on binary code analysis makes it particularly useful in cases where source is unavailable. OllyDbg is considered Shareware but is free to download.
