Cheat Engine

Dark Byte · Posted: Wed Apr 02, 2008 3:57 pm Post subject: Port to mac

If anyone is bored enough and has the time to do it, go port ce's source to freepascal (best use lazarus's mac version) and then make it work on a mac.
You'll have to write stub api's for the currently used windows api's (openprocess, read/write processmemory api's for one, and stubs for a few virtualalloc's) and fix lots of bugs caused by porting to freepascal.

I myself will not do this because
1: I don't have a mac
2: I don't have time to get into mac programming

So, if you're willing to do this I can provide you with a separate branch in the svn to work with.

Hello, I have had a mac for 2 years and I could do this, could you provide me with a separate branch in the svn to work with?

Get the Cheat Engine 6 project from the svn. That's the current port to lazarus. See how far you can get to make it work on a mac and let me know.

If you need help, let me know

Just wondering if there has been any progress on this. Im sure they will be a big demand for this now that Steam has come out for mac.

Unfortunate I was really looking forward to this. My programing knowledge is extremely limited unfortunately.

Yeah, each time when we try to stick wings into pigs it just ends up in a bloody mess.

Perhaps someday though...

As for the accessing and modifying memory (and the needed root permissions), as well as an initial app as a basis, I would suggest those interested look a "iHaxGamez", the name bugs the hell outta me, but it does work.

Combine this with what Dark Byte has done with CE and I think we could create a great open-source Mac cheat engine, hopefully with Dark Byte's blessings.

iHaxGamez can be found on SourceForge (I can't post URLs yet, forum rule), just do a search there.

Currently it just opens search windows and allows you to search in the results. Lacking in features, but functional.

it is easy to port ce to a mac (especially ce 6 where there is even a compiler for mac)
but problem 1 and 2 are still there. I don't want to buy a mac

Don't know much, but I would love the svn to try to get it working.
