Ever since update 6.3-ish, Cheat Engine hasn't been working. Whenever I try to get results it comes up with nothing, no matter what scan type I use. It happens with every game I try it on, even ones it used to work on.

Look for Zanzer's post in one thread around here. That's what happens when you don't disable the gay Windows UAC.

Here, see if this works: http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?p=5716442#5716442.

I tried that but it still just doesn't show any results. I don't get an error message, it just comes up blank.

Here's a thought: are you sure RainbowSixGame.exe is the game's executable? Maybe it's just a loader and you have to target a different process.

A quick Google search shows this:

Quote:
Go to your Rainbow Six Folder (the one that contains rainbowsix.exe and RainbowSixGame.exe, Essentially switch the two around. rainbowsix.exe (Battle Eye) becomes RainbowSixGame.exe and vice versa. Then RUN rainbowsix.exe because that should be the actual game launcher and not battle eye once you switch the name around. After that, Battle Eye should not be running. Remember to check TaskManager to make sure it isn't. After that, either use Cheat Engine or the address editor to do whatever you want to do.

Hate being right. Your process is rainbowsix.exe.

I have an old Rainbow Six table and I can confirm that it is called: RainbowSix.CT

I never had to switch anything around, though.

What you should understand from the above quote is there are 2 executables in the game folder: one is a loader, the other being the REAL executable/process he has to target in Cheat Engine. What he's doing now is to taget RainbowSixGame.exe and his scans return no results (because he scans the loader) Smile

-Is this comment for me, because I obviously understand. Razz I was simply stating that you were correct in that he seems to be targeting the wrong process, according to my old CT file. I was also stating that when I looked at this game some time back, there was no launcher or secondary process for the version that I was running. Very Happy

^ Yeah, was addressing you, as I didn't get the "CT" phrasing Smile Thought you were talking about the cheat table, not the game executable Razz Sorted out, thanks Smile

What I remember of this game, it has anti-cheat mechanisms. Very Happy

Then check my previous comment regarding permissions. Also wouldn't hurt to run ceregreset then uninstall/reinstall.
