It looks there much diffrences . I write a custom scan script in 6.1 .it cannot run in 5.6.1.

And seems the custom scan of 5.6.1 is more powerful.

I made modifications to ce6.2Alpha3 (cheatengine-i386.exe)

I added:
- alloc(fastScanAlignSize,4) [[an old alloc(fastscanstepsize,4) known from ce561]]

- alloc(treatAsFloat,1) (it makes cast: 4-bytes-integer to 4-bytes-Float) (3F800000 to 1.0)

but, they are not verified by Dark Byte. And only for AA Custom Type.

a 6.1 custom scan script has added support for 64-bit in the same script so it will not work in 5.6.1 unless you remove that

Not sure what you mean with custom scan of 5.6.1 is more powerful, you can't even do value to type conversions there

Thanks a lot.

I write AA like this. I wanna search some datas encoded.

6.1 also supports dll's like 5.6.1

loadlibrary and just calling the functions as described. 6.1 even has the function template required for C written in the comments. Of course, if your dll is 32 bit, use the 32-bit version of ce. Remember: The custom type code is executed inside Cheat Engine, not inside the game

Thk u very much. Dark Byte.
I'll rewrite the script.

I found that the only way for call game internal routine with AA is that Creating a thread in the game process.

Maybe It is hard to call game internal routine with AA,so as to It's not easy for scan data enctryped by a little complex arithmetic.

I think out a way is copying the game codes to memory of CE and call it.
but I consider put the copy process in ConvertRoutine is not well,where to place it?

You'll have to put the decryption routine inside CE and let it function on the data the aa gives it

Another method that is way to slow to even bother:
Inject a dll that starts a thread and waits for communication
An the custom scan type write the code that sends a message to that thread (e.g pipe or events) and wait for it to finish processing and then read the result out
