Cheat Engine

[davethewave_83]

What's the oldest CE code available? I want to make a UCE and since I never have I think maybe using the oldest code would be the easiest way to learn? Since there's a lot less of the code to change etc.

Or I will just pay someone $50 to run me through the steps of making CE6 a UCE (I tried to run it in Lazarus but it has memory read errors upon opening.) I have not the brains for this

Stream = TMemoryBrowser:Root= blablablabla Read errors
continue loading, cancel loading or stop all loading are the options.

The oldest source code easily available is probably revision 2 of the SVN. Not sure if that will be any easier to make a UCE out of, though.

for ce 6 you need the daily snapshot of lazarus

also, earlier ce versions most likely have more code as it's less optimized.
and versions before 5 wouldn't be able to bypass anti-cheat routines (no kernel modification ability)

Oh alright, Thanks for letting me know! Saved me a lot of headache

Quick question: When you say comment out all the code do you mean this literally, comment every line of code in every file out? Or is there a quick way to do this, since I'm not programming savy is there a way to do this to save time/make it easier on my self?

[Dark Byte]

yes, everything.
Of course it's mainly mainunit.pas and some of the direct child units.

e.g when mainunit.pas has been commented out (including all the uses it has) and then compiled only the form and code of mainunit.pas is compiled in and none of the rest.
Then go from there, add one unit at a time. If detected, comment out the added unit. (e.g perhaps it loaded another unit that is detected or some of it's own code is detected)

also, you can most likely skip the synedit and other external libraries ce uses as it would be incredibly stupid if anti cheats look for that (common code used in other applications)

[davethewave_83]

Alright thanks, no idea what Synedit is.
Mainunit has 5884 lines of code, i have to add // to each one?

Holy smokes! this will be a while

also when I try to build/compile it straight from SVN it says Fatal: Can't find unit interfaces used by cheatengine (before any mods)

[Dark Byte]

tip: use (* *) comments as I don't use them and it can comment out whole blocks

as for the interfaces thing you have to delete c:\Users\username\appdata\local\lazarus and then reinstall lazarus
