PINCE vs ReClass.NET

PINCE is a Linux GDB front end and reverse engineering tool focused on games, though its maker says it can also serve other reverse engineering work. It is free at free and licensed under GPLv3+. Its memory tools support scanning memory and pointers, inspecting and changing variables, and locking variables. Debugging features include stepping, breakpoints, watchpoints, tracking, tracing, stack traces, and signal handling. The built-in speedhack supports Linux native and WINE/Proton processes without LD_PRELOAD or other libraries. Runtime injection supports native.so files and WINE/Proton DLL files, and the Mono/IL2CPP dissector can browse classes, fields, and methods in those process types. Users can save address tables, bookmarks, notes, and structures in.pct session files. PINCE includes a scripting engine and reusable Python library. The project directs users to its latest AppImage release, stated to run on distributions as new as or newer than Ubuntu 22.04; older distributions are not officially supported. Official local development support includes Kubuntu 22.04+ and Arch Linux, with Debian 12+, Fedora 35+, and OpenSUSE partially supported.

ReClass.NET is a free .NET port of ReClass with additional features for examining process memory. It supports x86 and x64 and includes a memory viewer and scanner, automatic node dissection and highlighting for changed memory. Memory nodes can represent numeric values, text, vectors, matrices, virtual tables, functions and unions. For debugging, it displays PDB symbols and RTTI and includes a debugger to find what writes to or accesses an address. Users can start, stop or kill remote processes and filter the process selection dialog. The scanner can import files from Cheat Engine and CrySearch; project files from ReClass 2007–2016 and ReClass QT can also be imported. Plugins written in C++, C++/CLI or C# can add process-access methods, node information and custom nodes. The app generates C++ and C# code. The project lists Windows and Linux support, and says Linux support was tested on Ubuntu 18.04. It is released under the MIT License, free of charge and supplied without warranty.
