Lua Decompiler -

Replace local var_0, var_1 with meaningful names using find/replace. Re-add comments from memory.

Notice: Variable name i survived because the compiler stored debug info. If you strip debug symbols ( luac -s ), the output becomes:

local function greet(name) print("Hello, " .. name) end for i = 1, 3 do greet("user") end lua decompiler

java -jar unluac.jar hello.luac

luac -o hello.luac hello.lua (Lua 5.4)

local function greet(var_0) print("Hello, " .. var_0) end for var_1 = 1, 3 do greet("user") end

local function greet(name) print("Hello, " .. name) end for i = 1, 3 do greet("user") end Replace local var_0, var_1 with meaningful names using

java -jar unluac.jar --rawstring game.luac > recovered.lua The --rawstring flag prevents escaping issues.
