So here's a problem I've been having for a while now, but since there appears to be only one possible table for the game I'm currently playing it's become absolutely frustrating.

Lua scripts never work for me and I don't know why. The box never checks in and they never activate. I've tried updating Cheat Engine, I've tried saying Yes if it wants to run the script. I've tried everything the searches on these forums have turned up. Nothing. Can anyone help me out?

can you give more information than "I've tried everything and it doesn't work"? Like, an actual example of the simplest scripts you've tried that don't work? And maybe the name of the game (assuming you're not withholding it because it's an online game)

Also, in an AA script you have to use {$lua} before you can write lua code, eg.

Code:
[ENABLE]
{$lua}
print('you enabled me!')
{$asm}
// ^ ends lua section
[DISABLE]
{$lua}
print('Aw, try me again sometime!')
{$asm}


or
Code:
{$lua}
[ENABLE]
print('you enabled me!')
[DISABLE]
print('Aw, try me again sometime!')



Of course if you didn't create the scripts then it's possible they're out of date and aren't going to work just like AOB scripts would fail.
