If anyone is bored enough and has the time to do it, go port ce's source to freepascal (best use lazarus's mac version) and then make it work on a mac.
You'll have to write stub api's for the currently used windows api's (openprocess, read/write processmemory api's for one, and stubs for a few virtualalloc's) and fix lots of bugs caused by porting to freepascal.

I myself will not do this because
1: I don't have a mac
2: I don't have time to get into mac programming

So, if you're willing to do this I can provide you with a separate branch in the svn to work with.

Hello, I have had a mac for 2 years and I could do this, could you provide me with a separate branch in the svn to work with?

Get the Cheat Engine 6 project from the svn. That's the current port to lazarus. See how far you can get to make it work on a mac and let me know.

If you need help, let me know

Yeah, each time when we try to stick wings into pigs it just ends up in a bloody mess.

Perhaps someday though...

As for the accessing and modifying memory (and the needed root permissions), as well as an initial app as a basis, I would suggest those interested look a "iHaxGamez", the name bugs the hell outta me, but it does work.

Combine this with what Dark Byte has done with CE and I think we could create a great open-source Mac cheat engine, hopefully with Dark Byte's blessings.

iHaxGamez can be found on SourceForge (I can't post URLs yet, forum rule), just do a search there.

Currently it just opens search windows and allows you to search in the results. Lacking in features, but functional.

A quick glance at the sourceforge project page made me notice 2 things. 1: There may be a licensing incompatibility. 2: It's written in Objective-C! It would probably be less work (and less complicated) just to port CE to mac without combining it with anything else.

it is easy to port ce to a mac (especially ce 6 where there is even a compiler for mac)
but problem 1 and 2 are still there. I don't want to buy a mac

I'd do it if I knew Pascal, but I'm still trying to find the time to learn.

Don't know much, but I would love the svn to try to get it working.
