Cheat Engine

[chtmod]

I've got a game in which I want to freeze the hero's life.
I found the address (in fact I found 5 of them, no less no matter what I've tried). Then I found what wrote to the address:

mov [eax+04],edi

I created a code injection (BTW I finished the code injection part of the tutorial) and got this:

originalcode:
mov [eax+04],edi
jle ordinal10771+14b

Now I got some questions:
-first, could you comment on what exactly does each of the above 2 lines do? I can't understand 'em.
-then, where could I go from here? Mind that I've already tried to NOP the first instruction (mov [eax+04 etc.) and I've obtained godmode- but
me and all the enemies moved much slower (why?) - so *that* is no good.

I am no expert, but this is what I think.

mov [eax+04],edi = the "container" with the address [eax+04] will be given the value edi contains.

jle ordinal10771+14b = this is a conditional jump. It will jump if it is less then or equal to a value. In this case ordinal10771+14b.

I am not really sure why your game is slowing, probably your "conditional jump" part don't like NOP. So try something like;

mov [eax+04],#100 or whatever value you find good. Maybe your "conditional jump"-thingy will act more normal.

do a "find out what writes to this address" and when cheat engine finds mov [eax+04],edi. Chose the button "More information", and you will get your edi

And about your jle ordinal10771+14b .. I think it will jump to that location in your game. Use "show disassembler" and try to find your cmp, some lines above.

mov [eax+04],edi
jle ordinal10771+14b

Something there has to set a "flag" which jle is checking.

mov [eax+04],edi
Fyi this controls stamina mana life gold and maybe more i havent bothered to check but if you do some simple code injection you can achieve a one hit kill godmode infinte stamina infinite mana maybe more...
