in this code ECX can read a 4 byte int
that show a map size in B
E.g : A map is 1 MB it will show 1,048,576 (B) [1024 x 1024]

But it is hard to read the size in B
so I am trying to make it show it in KB

MapInKB = ECX / 1024
and round it up

MapInKBRoundup =math.floor(MapInKB+1)

Code:

addresslist=getAddressList()

ECX=readInteger("[Game.dll+D7D000]+134")
if ECX~=nil then
MapInKB = ECX / 1024
MapInKBRoundup =math.floor(MapInKB+1)
mr=addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(addresslist, "Map size in KB")
memoryrecord_setAddress(mr,MapInKBRoundup)
end

print(MapInKBRoundup)

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<CheatTable>
<CheatEntries>
<CheatEntry>
<ID>7345</ID>
<Description>"Map size in B"</Description>
<LastState Value="27437" RealAddress="0265103C"/>
<ShowAsSigned>0</ShowAsSigned>
<VariableType>4 Bytes</VariableType>
<Address>Game.dll+D7D000</Address>
<Offsets>
<Offset>134</Offset>
</Offsets>
</CheatEntry>
<CheatEntry>
<ID>7343</ID>
<Description>"Map size in KB"</Description>
<ShowAsSigned>0</ShowAsSigned>
<VariableType>4 Bytes</VariableType>
<Address>27</Address>
</CheatEntry>
</CheatEntries>
</CheatTable>

this code can show MapInKBRoundup in Lua engine
but fail to show the variable (MapInKBRoundup) in address list

I have been google a lot I guess it is

getMemoryRecordByDescription

memoryrecord_setAddress

but it did change the address but it change the value as a address not value as value

I use a dumb way to fix it

Code:

function getMapsize()
ECX=readInteger("[Game.dll+D7D000]+134")
if ECX~=nil then
MapInKB = ECX / 1024
MapInKBRoundup = math.floor(MapInKB + 1)
writeInteger("70002000",MapInKBRoundup)
end
end

getMapsize()

there is a timer looping getMapsize()

Try this

Code:

addresslist=getAddressList()

ECX=readInteger("[Game.dll+D7D000]+134")
if ECX~=nil then
MapInKB = ECX / 1024
MapInKBRoundup =math.floor(MapInKB+1)
mr=addresslist_getMemoryRecordByDescription(addresslist, "Map size in KB")
memoryrecord_setValue(mr,MapInKBRoundup)
end

print(MapInKBRoundup)

i think this should work gl
