Cheat Engine

[JMC17]

I've been hacking using ASM injections and it's a lot of fun, but lately I've been running into functions that processes a lot of important variables.
I made myself an ASM script to lay them into a codecave so I can point to them but it's tedious. I would much rather be able to inject one of my c# DLLs and reference it in the auto-assembler.

Is that possible with CE? Referencing a c# DLL in the auto-assembler to simplify the coding aspect?
I understand I can just do it all in Visual Studio but I really like using Cheat Engine's tools. If I could hug DarkByte I would.

Does the target process use .net ? That would make it easier to inject that dll into the target process and then reference the method

Yes I believe so. The game I'm having fun with is Icarus. It's using Unreal Engine 4.

Do I reference the method using lua or asm?

If the target is running .net then you can use injectDotNetDLL(path) to inject the .net dll

Then use the normal .net functions to find the image of the dll and the method address

but I don't think unreal engine 4 uses .net so that likely won't work.

Perhaps you could make it load .net I'll look into that

You can use https://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?p=5777686#5777686



and then use injectDotNetDLL to inject your c# dll

you'll have to jit the target method first, so launch the invasive dotnet data collector : LaunchDotNetInterface() and then you can use
dotnet_findDotNetMethodAddress(namespace, classname, methodname, modulename) to get the address of your method

Thank you, you're the best.
