what is hwbp?

what do you mean with how can i get rcx+54?

about moving your own value into it, you can basically mov [rcx+54],19
19 is imm hex-value, its up to you whether you wanna move imm value or register.
laso you can specify whether it should be moved into lower 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit by "byte ptr" word ptr and "dword ptr"

mov accept:

reg,reg
reg,mem
reg,imm
mem,reg
mem,imm

in your case:
you can choose:

mov [mem],imm
mov [mem],reg

I'm thinking you will need to post more then that. I have no idea what you're trying to do.

Are you just replacing code, or are you trying to inject.

To get the address stored is "RCX", an injection is most likely the best bet.

If you are injecting then with the instruction line selected in the memory view for press Ctrl+A then press Ctrl+Shift+F (in the auto assembler from) and start with that to write your script.

my bad
I'm explaining the best I can

the game is heavily protected against memory change.so no injections.
now with help of LUA, i want to put a BP on the comparing code: cmp [rcx+54],0 and get the address of rcx.

something like this .......
debugProcess()

function debugger_onBreakpoint()
debug_continueFromBreakpoint(co_run)
return 1
end

This may be what you're looking for.

debugger_onBreakpoint

Quote:
When a breaking breakpoint hits (that includes single stepping) and the lua function debugger_onBreakpoint() is defined it will be called and the global variables EAX, EBX, .... will be filled in
Return 0 if you want the userinterface to be updated and anything else if not (e.g You continued from the breakpoint in your script)


Quote:
Example:

function debugger_onBreakpoint()

local value=EAX
if (value ==0x0C93E004 ) then -- break condition
return 0 --break
else
return 1 -- continue without breaking
end
end

debug_setBreakpoint(0x0040CEA6) -- called if the above condition is true. And it will set breakpoint at 0x0040CEA6


So just store the R?? registry in a variable to use latter.

what does memory protection have to do with debugging?

hwbp = hardware break-point

assuming the developers are using the hwbp in their executable to prevent anyone else putting hwbp, then in this case make sure you have veh debugger enabled and check the page-exceptions option.

by these options you will be able to debug that instruction.

theres mem protectio so no inject.
i need fill rcx by lua not injection

what i want to do is to retrieve rcx when 1408541E2 address is being executed and fill [rcx+54] with 1 every time it is being executed

So some thing like this if you're juct checking "RCX":
Code:

SavedBase = nil
function debugger_onBreakpoint()
   if RCX == 0x1408541E2 then
      SavedBase = RCX
      writeInteger(RCX+0x54, 1)
   end
   return 1
end


If you need to check "RCX+54" then maybe this:
Code:

SavedBase = nil
function debugger_onBreakpoint()
   if RCX+0x54 == 0x1408541E2 then
      SavedBase = RCX
      writeInteger(RCX+0x54, 1)
   end
   return 1
end


If "RCX+54" is a float then just use "writeFloat" instead of "writeInteger".

You just need to use "debug_setBreakpoint" to set the break point.

EDIT: "wrieFloat" to "writeFloat"

I'm not checking it for a certain value.
I just wanna get the rcx+54 every time it gets executed

Is RCX+54 instruction to be "executed" or just an address that some instruction "accesses".

If instruction, then I am not sure what you are trying to do.

If it's just a value then you would need to hook every instruction that accesses it.

But if you mean that you just want to store the address every time the break point is hit, then just cut out the check and store the base + offset.
Code:

SavedAddress = nil
function debugger_onBreakpoint()
    SavedAddress = RCX+0x54
    writeInteger(SavedAddress, 1)
    return 1
end
debug_setBreakpoint({address of intruction to set break point at})


Note that if the address is a symbol it needs to be in single quotes.
Code:
debug_setBreakpoint('someSymbol')
