http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=2703.0
I ran into this and I decided today it's time to learn this, but there's one problem.I am the biggest noob and this is sooo far out of my league! But I'm not giving up and think it's time to make a huge post on how to use this tool. Sense i'm a beginner I think this will help other beginners use this tool. Like you guys always say, give back to the community. So I'm willing to embarrass my self with failing horribly just to help others.
 
First problem I ran into, I have IDA and a damos for the tt 225 from here
http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=467.0

I'm trying to follow along with the post so I found krkte, found it in IDA. Now I'm stuck on creating xml? what program do I use to create xml? I see I could copy code then imply the new pattern ex. F0   02   4D   65   04   00   67 into the pattern part of the xml coding
that's as far as I got, thanks in advance

Ahh, the Internet, where people have Ida but can't create Xml. Try notepad. Or vi. Or atom. Or xmlspy maybe. Eitherway, it's just text. You could create it in the forum editor of you wanted. Or ms word (these last two are bad choices). Personally I'd try atom, it's my editor du jour: https://atom.io

maps are much easier to locate via experience and a well defined file than trying to create a script to locate them for you. just my opinion, fwiw (which isn't much).

Sometimes a bit of work put into automation is worth it in the long run

alright i have failed multiple times and still can't understand this tool! Reading his forum multiple times and I'm still not making sense of it.
So question number 1: Looking at the hex numbers he relates to as in <pattern> he has it ex. F2 F4 XX XX 88 40 C2 F5 XX XX 88 50 E6 F4 MMXX XX E6 F5

What are these (xx) I'm seeing and also mmxx? when I look up ex. kzfw it goes like this=         08 07 06 06 05 05 08 07 06 06 05 05 08 07 06 06 05 05 08 07 from an hs. Where is he getting these numbers?

He isn't trying to match map data.

He is trying to match the ASM code that calls the lookup function using the map data *location* as a parameter.

Ouch. So it's out of my league as of right now. What also another thing i'm I can't get a good clear answer is when you import say a bin into IDA others say to split into two files but you state not to. If i don't split it where does it start and end?
