 		Cracking the VW codes
I have written a few JavaScripts for cracking the VW codes.

I posted them at the www.thx-1138.org forum. I can post them here also if anyone is interested. Or, I can Private Message them to you as well.

 		I'd love to see them if you don't mind putting them up as an attachment or something. Very Happy That, or a direct deeplink to them at thx would rule.

 		I posted them using the CODE display. Each is only about 15-20 lines long.

I'm not sure how to do a "direct deeplink."

 		Here are some perl scripts I used, based on Stormalong's work:

(The following should convert every 6 character code into a standard cryptogram. If you change $piece = substr($line, 0, 6, ""); to some other count, it should work for the other lengths)
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

$line = $ARGV[0];

$line =~ s/W/1/g;
$line =~ s/V/0/g;

$temp = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz12345678901111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111";
#$temp = "ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBAzyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba";
$count = 0;
$low = 100;
$high = 0;

while ($line ne "") {
$piece = substr($line, 0, 6, "");
$val = `echo "ibase=2; $piece" | bc`;
chop $val;
@list[$count] = $val;
$count = $count + 1;
}
$count = 0;

foreach $val (@list)
{
#$val = ($val+$rot)%52;
$c = substr($msg, $val-1, 1);
if (!($trans[$val] =~ /./)) {
$trans[$val] = substr($temp, $val-1, 1);
$count = $count + 1;
if ($val > $high) { $high = $val; }
if ($val < $low) { $low = $val; }
}
@count[$val] = @count[$val] + 1;
print "$trans[$val] $val\n";
$result .= $trans[$val];
}
print "$result\n";
print "Count: $count High: $high Low: $low\n";
$count = 0;
foreach $test (@count)
{
print "$count: $test\n";
$count = $count+1;
}

 		Thanks, Anthrax for posting my and your programs.

Mine can be run on any newer browser. Just cut and paste the code into NOTEPAD (or similar simple editor) and save as an html file.

 		I just completed a new JavaScript program that force-decodes all VW messages. It gives four outputs: 5-digit, 6-digit(26x2), 6-digit(5x5) and 7-digit. Three of the outputs will be rubbish, one should be the correct solve.

If anyone is interested, please let me know. I haven't posted it anywhere yet. I will post it if there is interest.

Also, I hope to update this multi-solver if and when SEN uses new Filters.

 		Here is the Multi-solver. Simply copy and paste it into notepad (or similar simple editor) and save it as <filename>.html.

Run it in any newer browser. It'll choke on spaces and/or returns, so edit them out of the VW code beforehand.

Let me know if you run into any problems with it.

Code:

If you want to watch it work, remove the double slashes (//) toward the end of the program.

 		Another Tool
Here is another tool for solving the VW codes.

It displays the length of the text, and the factors (either 5, 6 or 7) of the length (to help determine the length of the binary words).

It then converts the VW text to Decimal numbers with v=1, w=0.

It will output the results for either a 5-digit, 6-digit or 7-digit code. You have to choose which one fits.

Code:

<html>
<head>

<title> VW To Decimal (Short Output With Factors) ++ ver 1.3 ++ </title>

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function vwToBinary (vw) {
   vw=vw.toLowerCase();
   var vwBin = "";
   for (a=0;a<vw.length;a++) {
      bit = ((vw.charAt(a)=="v")?1:0);
      vwBin += bit;
   }
   return vwBin;
}

function binaryToDecimal (binText) {
   var decVal = 0;
   for (b=binText.length;b>0;b--) {
      decVal += parseInt(binText.charAt(binText.length-b))*Math.pow(2,b-1);
   }
   return decVal;
}

</script>
</head>

<body>

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

vwCode = prompt ("Enter A Line Of VW Text:");

document.write("<h3>Length: "+vwCode.length+"</h3>");

for (x=5;x<=7;x++) {
   document.write((vwCode.length%x==0)?"<h3>Factor: "+x+"</h3>":"");
}

document.write("<hr>");

for (digit=5; digit<=7; digit++) {

   document.write ("<h2>Factor: "+digit+"</h2>");

   for (y=0;y<(vwCode.length/digit);y++) {

//      document.write(y+": "+vwCode.substring((y*digit),(y*digit+digit))+ " ");

      binCode = vwToBinary(vwCode.substring((y*digit),(y*digit+digit)));
//      document.write (binCode+" ");

      decCode = binaryToDecimal(binCode);
      document.write(decCode);
      document.write((((y+1)%20)==0)?"<br>":" ");
   }
}

</script>
</body>
</html>


I hope this works for you.

 		Here is a newer version of the decimalizer program.

It works with groups from 4 to 12. V=1.

It might bog down your browser. I hope it works well for you.

Code:

<html>
<head>

<title> VW To Decimal (Short Output With Factors) ++ ver 1.4 ++ </title>

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function vwToBinary (vw) {
   vw=vw.toLowerCase();
   var vwBin = "";
   for (a=0;a<vw.length;a++) {
      bit = ((vw.charAt(a)=="v")?1:0);
      vwBin += bit;
   }
   return vwBin;
}

function binaryToDecimal (binText) {
   var decVal = 0;
   for (b=binText.length;b>0;b--) {
      decVal += parseInt(binText.charAt(binText.length-b))*Math.pow(2,b-1);
   }
   return decVal;
}

</script>
</head>

<body>

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

vwCode = prompt ("Enter A Line Of VW Text:");

document.write("<h3>Length: "+vwCode.length+"</h3>");

for (x=4;x<=12;x++) {
   document.write((vwCode.length%x==0)?"<h3>Factor: "+x+"</h3>":"");
}

document.write("<hr>");

for (digit=4; digit<=12; digit++) {

   document.write ("<h2>Factor: "+digit+"</h2>");

   for (y=0;y<(vwCode.length/digit);y++) {

      binCode = vwToBinary(vwCode.substring((y*digit),(y*digit+digit)));
      decCode = binaryToDecimal(binCode);
      document.write(decCode);
      document.write((((y+1)%20)==0)?"<br>":" ");
   }
}

</script>
</body>
</html>
