Cheat Engine

Hello ! I have an offline game in my PC. A racing game. Now, i want to change the clock, that tells how much time you did, to go to the finish line. but the time is strange writen. Its like that for example: 0:14:39


0 : 14 : 39

stands for minutes | stands for seconds | stands for microseconds


How i have to look for it on the cheat engine ??

Some standard ways to store time are:
As a float/double representing the number of seconds (sometimes milliseconds).
As a 4-byte/8-byte representing the number of milliseconds.

I'm not sure you understand what microsecond means.
Does that number count up to 1,000,000 before changing that 14 to a 15?
Or does it only count to 1,000 (milliseconds)?
Or, worse, do you only see it count up to 100?

Anyway, convert that time into a single value.

For total seconds, calculate: minutes * 60 + seconds
Then, tell CE to search for a range between +/- 1 of that value

For total milliseconds, calculate: (minutes * 60 + seconds) * 1000 + milliseconds
For this, best to tell CE to search for a range between +/- 1000 of that value.

So in your example:

Seconds = 0 * 60 + 14 = 14
Search for a float between 13 and 15

Milliseconds = (0 * 60 + 14) * 1000 + 39 = 14039
Search for a 4-byte between 13000 and 15000
