I'm an AutoHotkey scripter right now. I'm trying to get better with CE but... lol. Anyways I've noticed the forum is set up in the exact same formate and that cheat engine uses some basic commaneds possible from AutoHotkey. I was just wondering if CE was Wrighten in AHK or made by the same people?

Cheat Engine was made by Dark Byte (Eric Heinjen), and I doubt he made AutoHotkey because it would be on his website (most likely).

Not so much that he made AHK more that did he use it and the Forum setup is Identical... even the URL written adress' aare almost mirrored, just different values at the end.

Most likely both Cheatengine's forum and AHK' forum use the same forum hoster. And the "values at the end" are because forums are built dynamically (.php files). That way you can read the page data from a database so you can build the page differently each time, and accurately, without having to update your html files every five seconds (literally).
