Ugh! That is going to be a pain because there are so many addresses in the changed addresses list.

Usually just a few are needed, sort them for address, select like idk 6 others, 2-3 quite close, others at start/end, choose Right mouse "open dissect data .." and it should prob. be enough. At least you don't need to add all of them.

But you may want to (at Structure Dissect) File\Save values, restart the game, attach, change Value Type, aob scan for the instruction to find it fast, and create the structure again. It helps you sort some things out that change at restart.

EDIT: What i forgott: since the main instruction is fst - it might be you can't find s.t. browsing these memory addresses but you rather need to take look at the stack (or if you see instructions including xmm also the FPU).

All of the purple values in the structure dissect list are pointers (other than the lives value located at offset 10). This game is too complicated for a beginner like me. I suppose I will have to keep practicing & come back to this when I have more experience. Crying or Very sad

I took a brief look at it and that game looks like a statically compiled / linked virtual machine (more or less same effect as an emulator). Whoever came up with such a stupid idea should have their hands cut off.

If you're lucky, the pointer scanner is probably the easiest solution. You might be able to do something similar to step 9 of the tutorial. If these don't pan out, give up- you're probably wasting your time.

Ya, been trying to do the pointer scanner for a while without success. I'll probably be giving up on it soon since I just wanted some changes for a single project.

True and yet ..... Best example imo last 2,3? Assassin's Creed games (as being the only ones:) using Denuvo + VM Protect, so a Anti Tamper+VM in a VM. Yet, a quite neat table was possible (creating it wasn't an easy task too, still learning from it)- There are also many reports concerning the drain on cpu from tempering the code. If it's for anti-cracking methods, it at least would be nice to remove anything putting unnecessary load onto our systems once it's not needed anymore (like when when sales go way down or a crack comes out or whatever). Some examples do exist, but many - lazzy or just for the sake of it - wont. While it would make creating cheats, as well as understanding the process way easier.

I mean I do remember ... damn (what name was it?) it was some game promised to allow mods but their lack of own support + obfuscation methods turned to nearly no (like 1,5) mods (0,5 meaning something unfinished/buggy) at all (despite low sales). But that's OT.

Btt: On the screenshot, I at least do see one value for your player and 0 for others (just 2 other examples, but anyway). Some idea: it might be that instruction has on that offset just (I believe starting value is:) 3 in it. Esp 3 might break the game, but worth a try. (else would be just some static pointer on game restart, see edited post, search "What i forgott". If it works, it prob. breaks on game updates but till then ...)
