cool :3
never checked out the tutorial that much. i should give it a try. btw i have found a method to dump the memory of PC games. but you can only dump little parts (that have at least write-permission). but still useful

I been recently tring to find a way to program Gameboy roms to use gameboy color or super game boy features on VC, So i guess that could come in handy. :)

For some reason CE can't find what accesses the address of step 6.

Your doing the cheat engine tutorial? I was stuck on step 6 for 15 minutes. :3

yup. however, since i know how pointers work its fine. i could find them on my own way :p

But won't the tutorial teach you new ways instead of one you already know?
LawnMeower
LawnMeower
yes. cheat engine's method is way simpler. you cant simply dump the ram and search for pointers since the readable memory is split into a lot of parts. cheat engine checks out what access the address in order to get the right pointer

Oh, okay, sounds good right? Wait why you doing tutorial? You already know how to use cheat engine don't you?

You supposed to change the value when you open the "What access this" Window
LawnMeower
LawnMeower
i did
Sonic Angel Knight
Sonic Angel Knight
Find the address of the value in the tutorial
Then find what writes access address
Then change value again, then use the information inside the window box
LawnMeower
LawnMeower
i did but the box stays the same. nothing listed. it coudlnt even find what writes to this address there

Maybe you got to find the value again. I did it myself 20 minutes ago, and it worked.

Also your suppoed find what "Access" this address For pointer not what "Writes"
LawnMeower
LawnMeower
i know. just stated that the other option doesnt work too

You tried reloading the program? Maybe somehow the memory got messed up
