 |
|
I'm writing a lua server and require sockets. when I require("socket") I get:
Error:error loading module 'socket.core' from file 'C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\clibs64\socket\core.dll':
%1 is not a valid Win32 application.
I've checked every relevant post on this topic I could find. I was able to fix it for a much older version of CE, but that version has a bunch of other problems. What do I need to get sockets working with cheat engine 7.1?

No, I haven't. Does this require building CE from the source on git? Little new to this area, is there a link I can follow?

You are need check and synchronize both CE and Socket are same bit version.
Of CE is 64 bit then use Socket 64 bit, same if 32 bit.
Check CE Lua path.
Example on my machine:
| Code: | | print(package.path) |
C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\lua\?.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\lua\?\init.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\?.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\?\init.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\..\share\lua\5.3\?.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\..\share\lua\5.3\?\init.lua;.\?.lua;.\?\init.lua;?.lua;C:\Users\VCLBro\Documents\My Cheat Tables\?.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\autorun\xml\?.lua;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\autorun\ceshare\?.lua
| Code: | | print(package.cpath) |
C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\?.dll;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\..\lib\lua\5.3\?.dll;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\loadall.dll;.\?.dllC:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\?53.dll;.\?53.dll;C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\clibs64\?.dll;.\clibs64\?.dll
From the 'path' result : 'C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine 7.1\' and '...\clibs64\'; I know my CE Lua is 64 bit version
If CE Lua and Socket have different bit version, this won't work; the two architectures cannot be mixed in one process.
Or in short : You need Socket 64 bit version for Lua 5.3

no need to recompile CE
you just NEED to compile the luasockets core dll yourself. You may need to use the lua53-64.lib file that comes with CE as a reference if it uses static linking, else you have to edit the modulename if it uses loadlibrary
tip1: Use the ce plugin folder for lua header files
tip2: compile as c++
