Microsoft's new Minecraft Education Edition - written in C++ - will outrun the Java version

Speaking on the behalf of playing Minecraft locally, the move to a C++ code base should make hacking the game infinitely easier. No matter how much I've learned about hacking games, to this day, I still can't figure out how to give myself infinite health in Java-based Minecraft...

Different branch, won't affect people or servers who currently play the main branch, the main branch is still in development by the main programmers and will continue as it always has in Java.

With interpreted code that updates libraries and junk, it's generally far easier (and more stable) to either modify the base code (in this case the .jar itself like mods do) or use built-in commands like creative mode.

actually, java is easier. ce has an jvmti interface you can use to change java classes (much like mono)
it's just that java by default doesn't jit everything, but you can use an commandline option to make it do that (just like turning of compressed pointers)

Got an example on how to use it so I can see if that's actually reliable or not?

Have you tried finding health in Minecraft, Rydian? A few years ago, it was simple to find, but after they changed it to whatever's going on now, I can't find it for shit, no matter what I try.

I always find my way to the same values, but no matter what I've tried to modify in code, actual health remains elusive.

I've tried scanning for all value types and doing changed/unchanged, including trying it using just half a heart (losing only half a heart, then gaining it back, then losing half again, then gaining it back), thinking that maybe each heart container works like containers for items do...but that doesn't seem to be it, either.

I've tried placing values in what seems to be referenced addresses just before related read instructions, searching around seemingly related addresses, attempting group scans, and other stuff. I couldn't care less about actually using a cheat, because you can just do it natively; it's the elusive puzzle aspect of it that keeps me coming back every so often to try again...

Is there any tutorial or example to show how CE jvmti can be used?

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
