The AOB starting from the selected address is clearly:

Code:
8B 57 4C 8B 7D E8 3B D0 B8 04 00 00 00


But when I search it, I don't get anything?:

What am I doing wrong?

Rick-click over Memory Scan Option and select "all"



Then repeat the AOB-Scan Very Happy

When you are trying to cheat in multiplayer games and you ask something, make sure to not reveal the name of the game or post pictures which makes it obvious what are you trying to hack.

In this case, I am referring to the second picture that you have posted, because CE is attached to the game and it's written on the top that you are trying to hack multiplayergame.exe.

Stay a few seconds your mouse over every checkbox, a tooltiptext will popup and explain.

You can say CE to scan memory region that is "writable", "executable", etc... by default CE scan on writable regions and executable/non-executable. Just select ALL and CE will scan ALL memory. That means that your AoB is located on non-writable region or CopyOnWrite regions.

Hello,

before some minutes, cheat engines created me an array of byte.
I was trying to create a Code Injection which allocates me 4 bytes and writes the base address in there.

Well yeah, i found an address, found out what accesses, went to that function in disassembler -> Opened Auto Assembler -> Generate cheat table framework -> generate aob injection template.

This generated me the AOB to that address. And yeah what to say, the script works fine when i add an offset to it (which i was aware of before) and its pointing to the correct address/value.

Everything fine, but what is really confusing me is, when i copy the AOB of the script cheat engine generated me, and want to search for this aob manually then it doesnt find any results. And yes, preset is like described above. Memory can find ALL addresses.

Very confusing.

PS: I am not a totally retarded newbie, i am coding cheats in total for about more than half a year and actually i know what i am doing but this is still confusing me.

If the cheat using that AOB is activated, then deactivate it and search again. Remember when you inject code the instruction is replaced with a jmp, thus changing the AOB.
