hello, I'm new to lua but I manage to make an text and colored background in a dx9 game.

Then I used Lua in cheatengine it auto turned on "Hook Direct3D" because it knew I was using it..
But now then I make my trainer using the same code that worked in CE I get the "Error:The d3dhook object has not been created yet"

Isnt it posible for the trainer to turn that on? How can I use d3d hook in a trainer? Smile

Cheers! Smile

Is it a tiny trainer or a gigantic trainer?
If gigantic, you must add all required dll's to your trainer when building the exe (all d3d related dll's, but you can skip the dx10 and 11)

I have tried gigantic and tiny now. Same thing on both :/

for example using this menu code you made in a trainer:
How to show an ingame menu in d3d games

I get the same error..

Does your lua script contain code to attach to the game ?

When you use it as a ct you might have opened the process manually, but in a trainer you have to code it so it does that.

Also, check http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=553143 , note that there is a delay between opening the process and starting the hook

You mean like this?
"strings_add(getAutoAttachList(), "GAME.exe")"

everything works great if I just put the code in Lua in CE. It just dont work in a trainer because the hook Direct3D function doesnt get enabled..

I cant see anthing in that ingame trainer code that I missed.

But if we just wanted to be able to use this code you posten:
This will work if I just put it in to Lua and run it. But if I then use the "Generate trainer from Lua table".
use gigantic/tiny or whatever settings (I have tried them all)
and then save it as an EXE and try it out. I will still get this error..
And I cant see why this is a problem because I need CE to start the trainer so why would it be a difference to run it as a trainer or just paste the Lua code?

or what am I missing here?
because this down here will work, but not if i make it to a trainer..

Code:

strings_add(getAutoAttachList(), "GAME.exe")

background=createPicture()
bmp=picture_getBitmap(background);

graphic_setHeight(bmp,1)
graphic_setWidth(bmp,1)
c=rasterimage_getCanvas(bmp)

canvas_setPixel(c,0,0,0xff0000)

highlighter=createPicture()
bmp=picture_getBitmap(highlighter);

graphic_setHeight(bmp,1)
graphic_setWidth(bmp,1)
c=rasterimage_getCanvas(bmp)

canvas_setPixel(c,0,0,0x0000ff)



d3dhook_initializeHook()
bgtexture=d3dhook_createTexture(background)

bgsprite=d3dhook_createSprite(bgtexture);
d3dhook_renderobject_setX(bgsprite, -1) --center it horizontally
d3dhook_sprite_setWidth(bgsprite,200)
d3dhook_sprite_setHeight(bgsprite,200)

highlightertexture=d3dhook_createTexture(highlighter)
hlsprite=d3dhook_createSprite(highlightertexture)
d3dhook_renderobject_setVisible(hlsprite, false) --don't show it just yet
d3dhook_renderobject_setX(hlsprite, -1) --center (so matches with the background)
d3dhook_sprite_setWidth(hlsprite,200)



font=createFont()
fontmap=d3dhook_createFontmap(font)

lineheight=d3dhook_texture_getHeight(fontmap) --fontmap inherits from texture so this can be used

d3dhook_sprite_setHeight(hlsprite,lineheight) --make the highlightr the same height as a textline

Option1=d3dhook_createTextContainer(fontmap,-1,50,'Option 1: OFF')
Option2=d3dhook_createTextContainer(fontmap,-1,50+lineheight,'Option 2: OFF')
Option3=d3dhook_createTextContainer(fontmap,-1,50+lineheight*2,'Option 3: OFF')
Option1State=false
Option2State=false
Option3State=false


selectedOption=1

function setHighlighterToSelectedOption()
  d3dhook_renderobject_setY(hlsprite, 50+lineheight*(selectedOption-1))
end


setHighlighterToSelectedOption()
d3dhook_renderobject_setVisible(hlsprite, true)

function ExecuteSelectedOption()
  local onoff="OFF";

  if (selectedOption==1) then
    Option1State=not Option1State
    if (Option1State) then
      onoff="ON"
    else
      onoff="OFF"
    end   
    d3dhook_textcontainer_setText(Option1,'Option 1: '..onoff);
  end

  if (selectedOption==2) then
    Option2State=not Option2State
    if (Option2State) then
      onoff="ON"
    else
      onoff="OFF"
    end
    d3dhook_textcontainer_setText(Option2,'Option 2: '..onoff);
  end

  if (selectedOption==3) then
    Option3State=not Option3State
    if (Option3State) then
      onoff="ON"
    else
      onoff="OFF"
    end
    d3dhook_textcontainer_setText(Option3,'Option 3: '..onoff);
  end

 
end

function objectclick(object, x, y)
  --bla=userDataToInteger(object)
  --print(string.format("click on %x",bla))


  if (object==Option1) then
    selectedOption=1
    ExecuteSelectedOption()
  end

  if (object==Option2) then
    selectedOption=2
    ExecuteSelectedOption()
  end

  if (object==Option3) then
    selectedOption=3
    ExecuteSelectedOption()
  end

  setHighlighterToSelectedOption()
end
d3dhook_onClick(objectclick)

function keydown(virtualkey,char)
  if (virtualkey==VK_DOWN) then
    --down arrow
    if (selectedOption<3) then
      selectedOption=selectedOption+1
    end
  end

  if (virtualkey==VK_UP) then
    --up arrow
    if (selectedOption>1) then
      selectedOption=selectedOption-1
    end
  end

  if (virtualkey==VK_RETURN) then
    ExecuteSelectedOption()
  end

  setHighlighterToSelectedOption()

  return true
end

d3dhook_onKey(keydown)

never use "generate generic lua trainerscript from table", that will add a form and other code to your trainer that you probably do not want

just save as exe

Also, add some debug output using print so you can see where it goes wrong

And obviously, your script will not work because it will try to do the hooking before it has opened the process
Code:

strings_add(getAutoAttachList(), "GAME.exe")

does not attach to the game at once, it just tells ce to attach to the game whenever it feels like
