Cheat Engine

Hi there, I'm new to all this so I don't know if this is the right place for this, if it's been asked and answered answered before, etc, but I was wondering if someone could help me.

I was wondering if it's possible for the Cheat Engine to do a multi-line serial repeater code akin to the ones used on Gamesharks for PS1 games in the old days.

For example the following code:

50000802 0001
80077EBC 6401

would be the same as

80077EBC 6401
80077EBE 6402
80077EC0 6403
80077EC2 6404
80077EC4 6405
80077EC6 6406
80077EC8 6407
80077ECA 6408

without having to right all those lines out, made even more effective with even more instances of the code. So, is there a way for the cheat engine to do the same (start at an address and add to the address and value by a set amount for a set number of times)? It might be something simple, like I said I'm new to all this so please be patient with me Razz

Cheers

This lua script would do what you want

Thanks for that,

I get all that pretty much - the only thing I don't get is where you got the 0x00400500 part from (I'm guessing that's the base address or something). Once I have that sused I should be able to sort out these codes as and when I need them myself.

Cheers

EDIT: Did some testing of my own and it complains about ' attempt to call global 'wordToByteTable' (a nil value)'

Are you using Cheat Engine 6.3? (I'm not sure wordToByteTable is a 6.3 or a 6.3+ function)

(The 00400500 is just an example base address I usually use to write random data to as it's generally unused)

Got it to work, was simply because I was still running on 6.2 rather than 6.3. Worked a treat, thank you Very Happy
