Posted: Fri Aug 29, 2014 4:15 pm Post subject: String Searching Start to End |
|
|
If I have a string:
"Hello my name is bob. Nice to meet you!"
I can search that whole string, and Cheat Engine will find it. However, say I search "Hello my name" -- it will find "Hello my name", but not the whole string, which is expected.
How can I tell Cheat Engine to
Search for "Hello my name is" and go all the way to "Nice to meet you!"
Basically, have a start/end and find everything in between. I have a long string that I would like to just copy out of Cheat Engine, and I know the first and last part of the string, but what is in between can vary.

CE searches for what you tell it to. Simply search for the first part of the string, add the results to your cheat table, then change your text length to see the entire string. Alternatively, to search in blocks, you can use an array of byte search...but that won't do you much good if you don't know what the middle part is...because you have to know how long the middle part is to determine how many wildcard variables to use. There may be a way around this limitation via LUA.
