Posted: Fri Jan 13, 2017 10:39 pm Post subject: Help with scripting |
|
|
Hey guys I'm new here, I found these hacks that I can use through Cheat Engine, I assume they need to be put in the table (via show cheat table lua script in the table menu), I put in the codes for it but I'm having a problem of an unexpected symbol error.
Here is the code;
<CheatEntry>
<Description>"Alien Arm"</Description>
<Color>80000008</Color>
<VariableType>Byte</VariableType>
<Address>00573BBC</Address>
</CheatEntry>
Anyone help?

<VariableType>Byte</VariableType>

Thank you, although the code has the same symbol problem, would you mind walking me through enabling the download file?

Regarding the symbol problem...using Notepad++, copy and paste the above code and save as .ct file. That should open with CE, latest version.
Regarding the attached table, open it using CE latest version and then attach CE to the target process. Once attached, if the address is good, editing the value should work as intended.

Copy the XML, open CE, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Do not paste this into the Auto Assemble or Lua scripts.

No Mr. Bond, I expect you to DIE!! Jk jk xD No I'm an ametuer to this kind of thing and with the help already provided, which I appreciate, thought you also knew how to execute it or knew how it works for this particular game.

What I mean is...you did not tell us anything about the game or what the cheat is for or how you even found it, so we have no idea about it.

Ah! My bad, misinterpreted it, the game is for Metal Fatigue and I got it from a site called gamehacking with .org instead of the standard url under the thread named [pc] metal fatigue cheat engine table
The combot parts are what I'm interested in and as far as I'm aware, these codes are supposed to give you said part(s), so the one in this thread for example, is supposed to give me this arm but not entirely sure how it works, whether the spawn is in the combot assembly or parts factory or something.
Apologies to everyone!

Well, since it's a simple address and the value is byte type, then it's probably a static address for a boolean or a leveler of sorts. Just change the value to 1 and see if it unlocks anything.

From the bottom window? It didn't work unless you're thinking from somewhere else?

You have to attach Cheat Engine to the game first. You do that by clicking on the computer icon in the upper-left corner of the main window in Cheat Engine. When you click on it, a process list will come up. If the game is running (which it should be), you should see it as one of the options inside the process list. Click on it and then click 'Open'.
Once attached, assuming that you have the Alien Arm entry inside your cheat table, you should be able to double-click on the value part and change it.

Okay done that, what's unusual that's just happened, I didn't click the active square, once I did, the value went to 0, so thinking if I set it to 1, as you suggested, it would have solved it but nothing happened
