Hello fellow Cheaters, lately i have been trying to modify my amount of wood in a game. By using the unknown initial value search. I found the values but, i wasn't able to change the value, it would simply change back to it's original number.

Therefore i tried to change the eax, so i could maybe get more than 1 wood for every time i hit the tree. Also that didn't work.

So im really stuck in my mission on trying to cheat myself to endless amounts of wood. But then i thought of, what if i could cheat the game to think i were cutting wood right now, but instead i just ran the "process" of getting one wood.

I couldn't find any useable information about this topic, so i would really like to hear what you got. Also if im totally off, and trying to do something impossible here.

no, its possible.
these type of cheats were done couple times, but its not something frequently performed.

honestly i never thought on making such cheat, so i have no idea on where to start.

but i can think and guess a bit, lets say:

Code:
mov [edi+110],edx

so edi + 110 is wood address.
and edx is total wood value after it addition or subtraction.

assuming esp+08 writing to edx then you can trace the stack. (stacktrace)
and modify the value in the trace.

or you can trace and break that function, and try to get the root to see if there is any valuable thing.

if you get a random value everytime you chop a tree, like:
first time 5, second 7, third 3.

then its a
Code:
call

finding and NOPing that call can give you always max range value.

see 5,7,3. there is a range between 0-10. after the nop it will be always 10.

so this is a type of cheating too, when you cant find or modify the value.

What you've found is a display value, and not a real value. Many games store their real values in the same way they store their display ones, but this isn't always the case!

Watch this video and see what you think:
