Hi everyone,

I think I'm encountering a bug with the recent version 7 of CE. In trying to find "Find out what accesses this address", v7 shows nothing while v6.8.3 shows at least 40 count as seen in the attached screen shot. Please note that v7 was used first. At first I thought it may have to do something with the mods I'm using, especially the unofficial patch. Then after further consideration, I doubt it. I then download and install v6.8.3. V6.8.3 works like a charm. Is anyone seeing similar bugs to CE v7? The debug options are the same for both versions. In another case of "Find out what writes to this address" in v7, CE didn't show the code(s) that were executed but instead, CE modifies the value itself.

TIA!

Windows debugger interface?
Because if VEH then the dll's are incompatible between 6.8.3 and 7.0

DB, what he's saying is:
- Try with CE 7-> no BP hits
- Try with CE 6.8.3-> BP hits

I've seen this problem, too.
I just always assumed it's me because it's random.

Plus, 7.0 still does clean up some breakpoints (mostly observed during a trace).
Borderlands 3 was particularly painful, but it was not the first.

I mean that if he has two ce builds installed at the same time, VEH will bug out . Perhaps the VEH dll was in use during the install failing to get overwritten(And seeing from the screenshot being the exact same dynamic address, if it is veh debug, that is going to be an issue as the injected veh debug replies to the 6.8.3 one)

edit: Actually, I really hope that those two CE's are just pasted next to eachother in an image editor and it's not a screenshot of both CE's running at the same time attached to the same process, because that is certainly not going to work

Anyhow, is the option to overwrite existing breakpoints enabled in settings?

Did you by any chance suspend cheat engine for longer than 5 seconds (not just the main thread, the whole program)

And see what happens if you click on "attach debugger to process" in the processlist
and only after that do things like find what accesses
