Hi, I'm making a trainer and I have a script for a d3d menu that works fine when I run it in the Lua Engine in CE, but doesn't work if I put it into a button on my trainer. If I create a button and make the script run onclick, when you click the button the trainer crashes. Any help?

Describe the crash? Just close? Message saying access violation?

Does it crash when you press that button in ce when just launching using the table or .cetrainer, or only when you press the button in the generated exe?

If exe only (gigantic ones), keep in mind that you have to add all used dll's to your trainer (the d3d hook dlls) when generating the .exe part

It says the program has stopped working and closes.

I did not include the d3d hook dlls though, how and what should I include?

just all the d3d*.dll files from the cheat engine folder.
If you know which directx version this games uses you can omit the ones that aren't used

Thanks Dark, but now when I click the button nothing happens.
It works fine in the Lua Engine, but when I put it in the button on my trainer when I click it nothing happens.

Does CEButton3Click get called when you click the button ? (use showMessage or print)

Does the button itself work when running the script from the .ct directly ?

and of course, make sure ALL required dll's are added. Not just dxhook.dll, but also ced3dXhook.dll

The button is working in the CT when I click Execute script after scripting the buttons. However, after generated it gives me an Access Violation error in Output and the button fails to work. When I was in the generate trainer menu, I clicked Add Files and added ced3d9hook.dll, d3d10hook.dll, d3d11hook.dll, and d3dhook.dll. That is how you include the files, right?

Add more debug output so you can see where exactly it goes wrong.
Note that your trainer must have attached to the process before you can click the button.
If you forgot to add the attach code, that might explain the crash
