Cheat Engine

Some games are tricky. For example, I'm looking at a game right now where most of the values are (display value) + (display value+1). So, if money in game is $50, you would need to search for $101.

Lame...

so does anyone have any advice for the renpy game?

I didn't spend much time with this. You can try one of these pointers. Depending on your game version, they may or may not work. Once in game, try freezing one of the pointers (if they look valid), and see if your money goes down after buying something.

It's possible to find and alter values in this game, but they're encrypted and there are checks in place, which is lame, but there are always workarounds. Very Happy

thanks
one worked but its only the money not the other numbers.
plus I would like to do it on other renpy games but I don't know how to use pointer or any other of the things that involve coding and encryption

Obviously, I only provided the money value because you didn't specify. If you want to make a request, create a thread in the request sub-forum and someone might be willing to do the work for you.

Regarding pointers, I never use them, but this was a lazy workaround for me since I didn't want to spend time on this. Injection is better.

Removing encryption is not really necessary at this point. Removing the checks will be necessary if you intend on altering the value to anything worthwhile...but that may not be easy for a beginner.

Pointers are easy, as CE does most of the work for you. You can follow videos and guides on how to use the pointer scanner by reading this forum and/or browsing youtube. Complete the CE tutorial for a better, overall understanding of what you are doing.

Regarding the money value, it's a factor of 12 and is inverted. So, if you have 50 and you want to have 90, you'll need to subtract 480 from your cash value.

As far as other python games, the values in those may or may not be encrypted, nor have any checks. Finding values like this requires patience. Use changed/unchanged scans and do not assume anything.
