Hi Dark-byte i did some searching and i noticed that

1-Cheat Engine is in C++
2-You use Open Process to create a long memory list
My question is can you provide a C++ code and explain how the Open Process works so i can better understand it and use it in Auto-it, Possibly create a UDF for it

if you use auto-it then you ll understand when i say i think that open procces is like _Memory Open in Autoit

Sorry kid, Cheat Engine is in Delphi.

To use API's like that in AutoIt, read this: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/DllCall.htm

Ehh, kid - Felling Destryor right their....21
Ehh i know what Dllcall is i know what _Memory open is haha all i need is soem explanation of how it works in Delphi so i can make a UDF for it and use it in autoit, ahah

heres the thing in Autoit, we can only find processes in the Reg(Short) list, so i decided to try and do what CE does, and find it in the Long List

processlist long tries to open every single processid including the ones that have hidden themself from the processlist. Once it's opened ce will try to find the first module of the process and then assumes that is the name of the process

Also,windows has process id's have the first 2 bits set to 0
If you try to open a processid where those 2 bits aren't set to 0 windows will make them 0 for you and open the process
Some hooks don't take that into account and only check for the processid with the 2 bits set to 0
