Cheat Engine

Hello, guys.

First, I want to point out that I'm quite the newbie when it comes to trying to find and modify addresses, as you'll see in this post.

Basically, I've been playing a lot of Mega Man fan games that are made in Game Maker or Multimedia Fusion, for example. They look really nice and I really want to play them. But of course like some of the official Mega Man games, some of these fan games are brutally difficult, so I wanted to try to get some cheats.

I've tried and tried and tried for hours, but have not succeeded in getting infinite health and lives for these fan games using cheat engine. I've tried some google searches for any kind of help, but haven't found much. For one of the fan games, I managed to freeze the health value, but it only works temporarily and then the health again goes down.

It was so much easier to use this program with some console emulators and computer emulators (DOSBox, WinUAE, etc) and some few fan games. But now I'm struggling so much with these Game Maker games.

I know that each game will be different, especially based on their game engine. i was wondering if I can get some help please. If you want, I can list some of the fan games I'm talking about.

One example is the Multimedia Fusion based fan game called Mega Man Revolution. I succeeded in getting infinite health with cheat engine through a 4-byte search. But I've unsuccessfully exhausted a search for the address corresponding to the lives count.

I REALLY appreciate the help.

game engines who uses interpreter like calls/objects/data are not so simple to manipulate, in fact searching for pointers are most of the time futile (thats why your found address was only temporary)

the reason why big companys dont use these engines a lot (except some exceptions and sometimes just a small part of the game) are these engines uses a lot of cpu power and data (in comparison with lowlevel engines), but that info is not necessary here

some things one can do to cheat these engines are editing game files directly if possible, or using assembler

here an example for health:

Thanks very much for replying, UnIoN. I'd like to give this a try, but unfortunately, I'm completely unfamiliar (dumb Razz

) on how to implement this code. Do I open one of the files in the game's folder and modify those values? Or will I need to work with assembler (I'm also not familiar with that).

Also, is there a section where I can request cheats? I'm not going to ask for very difficult things, just simply infinite health and lives.

single player cheat requests go here >> http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewforum.php?f=11

for the cheat, you need to add it manually in your cheat table from CE, or use this table i uploaded to this thread-post, beware that when this cheat is activated, and you fall off from the level (loosing a life) the game stops, you need than to deactivate the cheat, the game than proceeds and after that you can activate the cheat again

Cool! Thanks a lot, I'll try that and will use the cheat request sub-forum.

EDIT: I tried it and it worked. Thanks again! I'll try the the request section for infinite lives, but was wondering. Would you please PM me, I was wondering if I can ask you something related to this game, regarding some cheats. But since I'm a new user and don't have the requirements, I cannot PM you.
