Cheat Engine

[nvz]

EDIT: ok, it just happened again. The autoAssemble fails and the cheat doesnt load correctly. I opened the program with "cheat engine" and i can confirm that there is no injection, even if i used "if autoAssemble([[]])==true".

As far as i know it should try to use the autoAssemble every 10ms until
it returns true, but it doenst.

ORIGINAL POST:
hi, i need some help with initizializing the hack program i'm writing. Sorry
if the post is long but it's easy to understand.

I need to inject code as soon as the program starts (i think i can wait one second max before injecting). However sometimes the autoAssemble scripts fails (probably is used too soon). This is the code i use:

function CETimer1Timer(sender)

if (HackWaitingLaunch==true) then
if getProcessIDFromProcessName("game.exe") ~= nil then
openProcess("game.exe")
HackWaitingLaunch=false
HackLoadInit=true


end

end


if (HackLoadInit==true) then

if (autoAssemble([[

alloc(HackInitMem,2048)
alloc(ScriptsPointerArray,1024000)
alloc(InitVariables,2048)
registersymbol(InitVariables)
registersymbol(ScriptsPointerArray)

//blah blah blah

mov [InitVariables+10], 1

]])==true) then

HackLoadInit=false
HackGameFound=true

end

end


if (HackGameFound==true) then

a=ReadBytes(GetAddress("InitVariables")+0x10,1,false)

if (a==1) then
WriteBytes(GetAddress("InitVariables")+0x10,0)
HackMainInjection()
HackGameFound=false
end

end

end

The timer is created in the Form Designer and set to 10ms. After the first
injection, the code will set the variables [InitVariables+10] to allow
the code to execute the "next" part of the loading.

The problem that i was having was that the autoAssemble would fail and so the InitVariables symbol was not registered, so the final part of the code couldnt work. So i added the check (if autoAssemble=true) etc.
Do you think the code is correct? I ask because i cannot replicate the bug,
on my computer it seem to work but on other people computer it may
have problems.

Nowhere in the code do I see you set

EDIT:
hi, i'm testing your code right now, and it's interesting that if i launch
the script in CE with "execute script" button it works, but when i make
an executable it doenst work. Any idea why? maybe my settings arent
right, but i never had any problem with them before.
I tested it with an empty executable, i just created a form.



hi, thanks. The hackwaitinglaunch variable is initialized in another place.

I tested your code with calc.exe, and works well, i noticed that it uses more
CPU than mine (if i drag the CE window it lags, with my code it doenst lag).
Maybe because your code is safer than mine?

however, just to explain what the code is doing: after attaching the process,
it does a first injection, so it can retrieve all the pointers that i need, when
it has all the pointers it sets [InitVariables+10] to 1, so it can do the rest
of the injection (which requires the pointers that were found).

I will use your code in my program and see if it solves. Thanks.
