Binary debug for nested big ass structures.

Heyaa,

So recently I had to compare binaries in the layout of multi level nested big fat structures. I surprised to find that there are no good tools to do that. The best i could find was watch section in visual studio. I have tried another tool, WinDbg this doesn’t work well with macros and arrays. To make matters worse, this big ass structure has offsets that point beyond of the structure. There is no good tools which automatically tells values for each field

Tldr: i have custom buffer layout with multiple nested level structures.
