Decompile Luac: !exclusive!

| Tool | Supported Lua Versions | Strengths | Weaknesses | |------|------------------------|-----------|-------------| | (Java) | 5.1 – 5.4 | Most accurate, actively maintained, handles upvalues, varargs. | No GUI, requires JVM. | | LuaDec (C++/Lua) | 5.1 – 5.3 | Fast, integrates with Lua environment. | Less accurate for complex closures. | | LuaDec51 (Python) | 5.1 only | Simple, good for legacy. | Outdated, no 5.2+ support. | | Frida-lua-decompiler | 5.2+ | In-memory runtime decompilation. | Complex, requires Frida hooks. | | LuaJIT-decompiler | LuaJIT bytecode | Specialized for LuaJIT (used in games like GMod). | Does not support standard Lua bytecode. |
