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;

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

Is this function called by default, or do we get to send extra arguments?

just means cheat engine checks if the process your opening is firefox.exe and if it is, it opens plugin-container.exe instead.

if you want to send extra arguments you have to do some tutorial reading.

Your post confuses me, but I do understand that it's a callback now, and so I cannot send an extra argument.

Thank you for attempting to answer my question.
