hi,

I'm hacking this game for health points. I found the visual address and the actual value address. But when I change the actual value it keeps resetting.

So I'm doing, "what writes to this address", continue the game, value changes yet no opcode appears in the screen.

What makes you sure that this is the real address and not just another copy of the actual real address?

That probably was a copy.
Now I've found an address which is static and holds the value.
But every new game I need to redo this process as the address changes.

Pointerscans for this address does not give results.
I think it might be a setting problem?

Info: The game is an .apk
The Process that cheatengine is assigned to is VBoxHeadless (virtual box)
Debugger options:
V Send Debugger options: Use kernelmode debugger
V Override existing breakpoint
V Replace incomplete opcode...
V Ask for replace with nop

You can't really debug emulators. Even if it would work the code you'll find is most likely part of the emulator instead of the target game

You'll need to run a debugger from inside virtual box to get anywhere

Omg thanks for making that clear... prevents me from wasting more and more time.

So would it be possible if a future update of cheatengine could have such an option, to attach a debugger inside the emulator?

Or what would be the most easiest thing to do for me now?
