Hello,

Let's say I have a c++ program and it has the following code in it:
Code:

if (number > 0.3) ...

How can I find 0.3? How is it stored? As a float?
Is it like this: cmp eax,02355444? (suppose 02355444 is 0.3)

When I scan in cheat engine for 0.3 as float I get loads of results.
But I only want to scan in the .text section or wherever 0.3 is stored.

Ty

It depends on the compiler, often it uses fld [00801234] and 00801234 contains 0.3

Check if the address is green, if it's green it's part of the module
