Cheat Engine

You just introduced the engine to me, but there seems to be a problem with it. Whenever I try to use the if-else loop, it only executes the code in the if loop. Is it just me?

check the condition of the if statement. (e.g. used a = instead of == tends to return true if the value isn't 0)
Also, perhaps some extra typecasting might be needed in case the c-scripter might have a problem figuring out what you meant and then just chooses true

I used a < operator, but I'll check again and report back to you.

Edit:

that is because 0x02423FC4 = 37896132
and yes, that actually IS bigger than 50

try
if(*(int *)0x02423FC4 > 50)

It stays the same value. It's as if the call wasn't even there. Any ideas to why (I'm trying to use it for step 1 of the CE Tutorial)?

Edit:

Random question, but do you have a Facebook?

change your script to:
if (*(int *)0x02423FC4 > 50)
{
(*(int *)0x02423FC4)--;
} else {
*(int *)0x02423FC4 = 100;
}

it doesn't like pointer math without braces

also, looks like there is an initialization problem with the ce script parser if you just click execute(so has nothing to do with injecting into a process). To get by that open and close the c-script console

and no, I don't have a facebook

The parenthesis worked. Thanks for the help. If only using WPM was as simple as this...
