Cheat Engine

Hello everybody,

I try to make it clear and easy to understand what I am trying to do:

Goal:
Patch an OpCode in a Flash Game in Firefox.

What I've done:

1. with CE i search for an AoB, add the adress to the cheat table and edit the OpCode directly in the table (Value). Problem is, that I've to search everytime I reload the page/restart firefox.

so I went to the Pointer

2. seeking an offset from the Basepointer of the plugin-container.exe from firefox, when...
a) reload the page
b) restart firefox
c) open other swf's like YouTube or anything else

Result: no chance to find an Offset as it depence on how many Flash's are currently open.

so I've always to search the AoB by myself with the CE Searchtool, and that's annoying.

Question: is there a solution to make an AA-Script or C/C++ Script to achieve my goal or to automate the search of the AoB?

thank you in advance

edit I've found this one:

Pointers and stuff like that are usually useless in flash games. At least if You want to find a pointer for a code.

You can write Your script in AA and use AOBscan as described.

Thank you for your template. the patching works but I've got a new problem:

from the address of the AoB add 22 bytes (eg. [somelabel+16]) I want to toggle the Value (Type Double) -> (mov [somelabel+16],VALUE). I can't do it with Enable/Disable becuase i don't want to repatch to the original AoB -> ergo: the script won't run after re-enabling

You can use * as a wildcard for aobscan.

Like

aobscan(somename, 16 78 96 * * * * 24 46)

will find every array where * could be any byte. Use * on the code that You have changed and aobscan will find it again.
