Hi there.

I tried using the memoryrecordhotkey_doHotkey(hotkey) command when initaliaze the trainer, but this is not working if use a generated/saved exe.

It's a bug or my fault?

Code:
RequiredCEVersion=6.2
if (getCEVersion==nil) or (getCEVersion()<RequiredCEVersion) then
  messageDialog('Please install Cheat Engine '..RequiredCEVersion, mtError, mbOK)
  closeCE()
end
addresslist=getAddressList()
memrec0=addresslist_getMemoryRecordByID(addresslist,0)

memrec0_hotkey0=memoryrecord_getHotkeyByID(memrec0,0)

function onHotkey0(Hotkey)
  cheatcomponent_setActive(CETrainer_CHEAT0, true, 1500)
  if gBeepOnAction then
    beep()
  end
end

memoryrecordhotkey_onHotkey(memrec0_hotkey0,onHotkey0)
memoryrecordhotkey_doHotkey(memrec0_hotkey0)
control_setVisible(CETrainer_SEPERATOR, false)

strings_add(getAutoAttachList(), "firefox.exe")
gBeepOnAction=false
form_show(CETrainer)
function AboutClick()
  showMessage(gAboutText)
end
gAboutText=[[This trainer was made by Cheat Engine]]

function CloseClick()
  closeCE()
  return caFree
end


Regards

Does it work if you save it as a .ct and execute the lua code ?

Actually nevermind I see your problem, you are calling memoryrecordhotkey_doHotkey before cheat engine has even attached to the game (it hasn't even been added to the autoattach timer)

use openProcess("firefox.exe"), or use a timer that calls doHotkey after a second, or create the "function onOpenProcess(processid)" that gets called whenever ce opens a process (like the autoattach)

The order is indifferent, i tried pasting as last row but the command non executed. (The gui is working, but the address still unchanged.)

Here is the CETRAINER file (the address is a random writeable, maybe need changing).

If lua executed in CE is working, just as standalone no.

As I said, you're doing the onHotkey command before the process has been opened (registering the process to the autoattach timer doesn't immediately open the process)

I've uploaded a version where it calls openProcess (and while not needed right now, reinitializeSymbolhandler() in case you decide to use aa scripts/modulename+offset addresses later)

Note that if firefox is not loaded it might give an error (not sure, haven't tested that situation)

memrec0=addresslist_getMemoryRecordByID(addresslist,0)

memrec0_hotkey0=memoryrecord_getHotkeyByID(memrec0,0)
