So I don't know the proper term for this but I have a set of addresses(1000 to be exact) that I want to add to a table I downloaded. The address Begins here 060F 038C and ends here 0611 8388 Now from the starting point I need an address every A4 so after the first one would be 060F 0430 then 060F 04D4 etc. Now to do that with my current knowledge would take HOURs.

Cheat tables are .xml files, so you can use excel/open office to generate the xml entry for each of your addresses, and then paste that in your .ct file.

This has been discussed here: http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?p=5516677

Alternatively you can use the attached .ct, you just need to edit the address of the first cheat entry, all the rest will update. If you need to change the A4 offset one day, just edit the .ct with notepad and do a massive search and replace.

Thank you very much that helps me alot :D

One final Question, is there a way to change the Descriptions in a similar way? So in 1 click i can change all the descriptions to the proper Item ID slot #

Either use excel to regenerate the table, updating offsets AND descriptions, or write a lua script that will set the description of all your records according to their index.

The example in the thread I linked was outputting
max hp (unit 1)
current hp (unit 1)
mana (unit 1)
max hp (unit 2)
current hp (unit 2)
mana (unit 2)
etc... with the correct address for each.

Yea I fail at knowing how to write Lua scripts and I have no idea how to bring anything I do in excel over to Cheat Engine.
