 |
|
Hi.
I want to open/read a file and do a AOB scan with wildcards like a Hex-Editor(not for show, only to edit) or Patch.
This is my code
| Code: |
local dialog=createOpenDialog()
dialog.Filename='WET'
dialog.DefaultExt=".EXE"
dialog.Filter="WET (*.EXE)|*.EXE"
dialog.FilterIndex=1
dialog.Options = '[ofEnableSizing]'
if dialog.execute() then
local sFName = dialog.Filename
local file = assert(io.open(sFName, "r+b"))
local data = file:read("*all")
print(data:find(string.format("%c%c%c",0x0d,0x0a,0x24))) --"08 0A 24" only for test
file:close()
end
|
The AOB "08 0A 24" exist in WET.EXE but i get an error if i try to find the ABO with 0x24. Without it works. Whats wrong?
If i search for other AOB i get sometimes strange results. Sometimes i get the correct Offset and if i use a other AOB i get the correct Offset+1?
How can i read a file and edit it like a hexedito or patchr?

From ce menu 'file'->'open file', you can load a file content like a running process. Memory address 0 is the beginning of the file. The ce act like a hex-editor now.
Warned that any memory write will alternate the file content on disk immediately, better make a backup before doing this.
Also the ce may behave a bit abnormal after loading a file as process (situation encountered on my previous ce version, may be just me...), close ce if need.

Hi.
I know about 'file'->'open file' but I need to open it with a lua funktion like openProcess().
I found out why i get nil when I search with string.find to string.char(0x0A)..string.char(0x24). I now add every punctuation character a "%". It works fine but i dont know how i get nil if i try to search for "6a 01 6a ?? 6a 01 50 2e". If i use "6a ?? 6a ?? 6a 01 50 2e" i get the Offset.
| Code: | function _bla()
local sFixedData
local sExeNameZusatz = ""
local dialog=createOpenDialog()
dialog.Filename='WET'
dialog.DefaultExt=".EXE"
dialog.Filter="WET (*.EXE)|*.EXE"
dialog.FilterIndex=1
dialog.Options = '[ofEnableSizing]'
-- dialog.InitialDir = "F:\\WET"
if dialog.execute() then
sWetExePfad = dialog.Filename
local file = assert(io.open(sWetExePfad, "rb"))
sWetExeData = file:read("*all")
file:close()
local iTimeFixOffset, iLvl2ZielOffset
local sWetName = (sWetExeData:find("WET THE SEXY EMPIRE") ~= nil)
if sWetName then
iTimeFixOffset = sWetExeData:find(_AOB2String("6a ?? 6a ?? 6a 01 50 2e"))--ff 15
if iTimeFixOffset then iTimeFixOffset = iTimeFixOffset +2 end
iLvl2ZielOffset = sWetExeData:find(_AOB2String("81 3D ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? 0F 8C"))
if iLvl2ZielOffset then iLvl2ZielOffset = iLvl2ZielOffset +5 end
end
if iTimeFixOffset and iLvl2ZielOffset and sWetName then
showMessage("Data loaded!")
else
showMessage("Data not loaded!")
end
end
end
function _AOB2String(cString)
local myTable = {}
local i=1
local hNumber, iIfCharP
cString = string.gsub(cString, "%s" , "")
for v in string.gfind(cString, "..") do
hNumber = tonumber(v,16)
if hNumber then
myTable[i] = string.char(hNumber)
iIfCharP = string.find(myTable[i],"%p")
if iIfCharP then
myTable[i] = "%"..myTable[i]
end
else
myTable[i] = "."
end
i= i+1
end
return table.concat(myTable)
end |
Edit:
By the way. Is it possible to change the textcolor of the selectet row in a listviewitem?
