Hello, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how CE searches out different memory values within a process, I have actually DLed the source but I don't know delphi and I also don't know where that function is located within the source,

I am pretty sure it uses either the win32 function ReadProccesMemmory() or the kernel level equivalent but again I am not sure because I don't know where that function is within the source code.

It would be great if someone could give me this information or direct me to right place containing it, I am interested in making my own CE for educational purposes and this would be a great help to me.

Thank you

the scanning is done in memscan.pas

more information about it can be found in the wiki detailing how the scanner is setup

and yes, it uses ReadProcessMemory and VirtualQueryEx

oh wow thanks, geeze I had no idea how much code it took to do that Shocked - but its cool, it will defiantly take me some time to look over it.

Thanks for the help.

One last thing, I noticed I had DLed a older version of the full source code, I was wondering if you have released 5.4 and where to DL it.

Thanks again

check the main page for a link to the sourcecode.
Also, on the wiki main page you can find a link to the latest sourcecode in the svn. (It's basicaly the same since I havn't added anything to ce since 5.4 came out.)
