@foone You need to play more WH40k :-)

@foone Segment selector overrides is here:
https://wiki.osdev.org/X86-64_Instruction_Encoding#Legacy_Prefixes
0x36 is the SS segment override, but I'm not seeing it. You can see the 0x2E which is the CS: segment override.

@foone Wait wait wait I vaguely remember this. Hang on, I will 100% check this, but FROM HAZY MEMORY by default if the base register is BP or SP, then it's assumed to be a stack reference, and thus use SS.

Again, lemme check...

@foone Yes, I found a StackOverflow answer confirming my memory. Not very compelling I know but:

"Memory operands using esp or ebp as the base register default to SS, and so do the implicit accesses for stack instructions like push/pop/call/ret."

(odd they reference esp and ebp rather than sp and bp but OK)

@foone That capital G is a crime. Lucky thing this game isn't going to have to use it for anyone important.

@foone Yeah the M100 is the One True Mouse now. Want fancy features? Tough - have to go wireless :-(
