I've tried rly hard to find my answer with no success.

So how can i, for example, convert this integer: 1008466724768 to be a string or vise versa? I only need this to compare an address containing the 8 bytes value.

looks like a pointer, so you'll have to read the memory at the address is points to and try to interpret that

1008466724768 was just an example, and no what i am trying to compare is not a pointer.

I have an address which contain 1008466724768 as hex decimal (aka EACD4D07A0)

and an address which will contain at some point 1008466724768 as a string

I need to convert one or the other so i can cmp them.

Update:

Considering cheat engine itself already does that, i figured i could probably just search to find the OpCode that does the job.

I was able to find what i was looking for. For those looking for the same thing:
My current CE version is 7.4

Use a 2nd CE window to hook on the other one and in memory viewer, Search > Find Memory.

The AOB should be: 48 83 C6 01 48 89 CA 48 B8 CD CC CC CC CC CC CC CC 48 F7 E2 48 C1 EA 03 48 89 D7 48 6B D7 0A 48 89 C8 48 29 D0 48 83 C0 30 88 06 48 89 F9 48 85 FF 75 CD
(rcx initially contain 000000EACD4D07A0)

The OpCode above convert Hex 000000EACD4D07A0 to string 8674276648001 then just flip the string to 1008466724768.

Calling a library function like `strtoll` would be the easiest option. If you don't know all the details of calling conventions to call the function yourself in assembly, use {$ccode}:

1. Find Browser Tab PID
Open Cheat Engine → click Select Process → pick your browser.

Or in Chrome, press Shift + Esc → find the PID → match it in Cheat Engine.

2. Convert HEX ↔ Decimal in ASM
Hex to decimal:

asm
Copy
Edit
mov eax, 0x10 // hex 10 = decimal 16
Decimal to hex:

asm
Copy
Edit
mov eax, 16 // decimal 16 = hex 0x10
CPU sees them the same!

3. Make Text (String) in ASM
Example:

asm
Copy
Edit
db 'Hello',0
(db writes the text directly in memory.)

Short Notes:
0x10 = hex

16 = decimal

'A' = 0x41 (ASCII letter A)
