Cheat Engine

[Programz]

Could somebody describe exactly how the Toggle Visible option in Cheat engine works? I'm just interested in what it modifies in the memory. Also, does anybody know how I might code something like this in Visual Basic. I mean after I get, for example, 000C07CC-Example Window: - (ThunderRT6Frame) (Invis) How I might code something in Visual Basic that could make it visible? Thanks in advance.

I see no one has ever answered this post, but I am also trying to make a program that can make visible a specific window. How can Cheat Engine help me do this?

Is the number to the left in the dissasemble window view the address of the object? Would I just need to change a flag somehwere in the objects memory?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

the number on the left is the window handle

Anyhow, you just use the findwindow api to find that window, and then call ShowWindow

Thanks for the reply. Now when you say use the findwindow api, will that work for a control in the process i am trying to manipulate.

Here is what i am trying to do, there is a program, that when registered gives more options, (via enabling buttons that are invisible in the unregistered version)

Using the 'dissect windows' tool in CheatEngine, i can 'turn on' these buttons, making them visible.

However, I would like to code my own program that I can run and it will automatically turn on the buttons.

So... I know how to find a process, and I know how to read and write memory in the process' memory block. I just dont know what to do to enable the buttons.

buttons are windows too

Just find the window handle of the button (e.g findwindow) and then call ShowWindow on the handle of the button and set it to SW_SHOW
