For those people that have trouble finding values when they follow stupid youtube videos without having any clue what they are doing:

open your main.lua file (you can open it using your start menu->program->cheat engine 6.0>main.lua)

and then append the following code to the end of it:

Code:

function onOpenProcess(processid)
  --check if the user opened firefox.exe (for next version I should implement a getProcessnameFromID() )
  wrongProcessID=getProcessIDFromProcessName("firefox.exe")
  if (processid==wrongProcessID) then
    --is there a plugin-container.exe?
    correctProcess=getProcessIDFromProcessName("plugin-container.exe");
    if (correctProcess ~=nil) and (correctProcess ~=0) then
      openProcess(correctProcess);
    end;
  end;
end;

don't forget to save it and restart ce if it was open...

Now when you open firefox.exe just like that tutorial says you should you should have a little bit more luck with finding values

Ehm, lol Smile
You should save this as sticky or something somewhere. I will also spread it so people may finally learn this.

Should just include it as part of the CE releases main.lua lol.
There isn't any reason to hack Firefox specifically.
