Hi i'm trying search for the values -9.9999 to 9.9999 which the game reads from an xml settings file for the camera offsets so I can make a trainer to edit the camera whilst in-game, i've tried searching them as float values but I don't get any results Sad

0x3FA00000=1.2500
0xC11FFF97=-9.9999

No I converted the decimal values to float then searched as hex using
www dot h-schmidt dot net slash FloatConverter slash IEEE754 dot html

assuming its using these values directly without conversion to some internal thing; have you tried setting the values to something more specific and easier to find? Other than that just try to search for floating point type values

Not really sure how else I could search for them
the lowest and highest values in the xml for other settings is -50.0000 and 200.0000 so it could possibly take -99.9999 to 999.9999
I've tried searching them as string text but that resulted in no results also.

actually 1.25 is 125E-2
...

but honestly, why fo you think you should convert?
1.25 = 1.25 or 1.2500000000000
just fill it in and ce understands what you mean

Sorry i'm no expert but I don't know how to correctly search for decimal values, normally i'd just values using hex and how they fall in range

0-F = 0-15
00-FF = 0-255
0000-FFFF = 0-65535
00000000-FFFFFFFF = 0-4294967295

I thought using float was the correct way to search for numbers that don't fit the above ranges.

0xcb18967f = -9999999.0
0xbfffffff = -1.9999999
0xbf800000 = -1.000000
0x00000000 = 0.0
0x3f800000 = 1.000000
0x3fffffff = 1.9999999
0x4b18967f = 9999999.0

luckily you don't have to search in hex when using the float type

ce's float scan is able to deal with inexact values

hmm maybe Codemasters anti-cheat is getting in the way.
I found this in one of the xml files

?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<!--BXMLLittle-->
<anti_cheat>
<params enabled="true" resetDelay="0.000000" aiDriveTime="1.000000" />
</anti_cheat>

Game is F1 2011 and uses the old GFWL for it's online / Live multiplayer,
I don't wish to hack online and i'm sure the servers went down years ago anyway at least i've never be able to connect to anything, F1 2013 was removed from the steam store last year too.
