Hi all,

I have been trying to hack the time in minesweeper for windows 7. I have followed the pointers through using cheat engine and have arrived at minesweeper.exe + AAA38 which seems to be the static pointer for the time address.

My question is how to I go about finding the base address of minesweeper.exe so I can put this hack into code?

Cheers,

Loz.

I'm hoping you'll actually read the description behind the code and not just c+p it, but here goes: (sorry it's in my class format so you'll have to fix that).

You'll need to have CreateToolhelp32Snapshot to get the current processes. Then, you'll create a module snapshot of the process and look for your process name. You can skip the search of the snapshot and just use Process32Next() after Process32First() if you already know the PID from your trainer but doing it this way will let you also get .dlls (ie xlive.dll). You then just loop through and compare the modulenames to your name. The MODULEENTRY32 struct you fill will contain the base address of the module (your game) and you can use that. It also contains a lot of useful things like allocated size, zero terminated string path to file, and a couple other stuff. Look at it Wink

How would I go about controlling which squares are mines... I want to draw pictures with the mine flags and have it be correct.

cheers for the above I ended up coding it in C# as you can do the above in 2 lines and I wanted a pretty GUI Smile
