I wrote this tool because I hated exiting a game just to run Cheat Engine.
What it does is run Cheat Engine with a different title. A lot of these new multiplayer games just check for a title/process name. So this allows you to change the title without going through all sorts of trouble just to do a simple task.

Download: Here

Open Prefs.cfg, you'll see a few things options here. Look below for a detailed explanation.
Prefs.cfg wrote:
[Preferences]
Old Title = Cheat Engine 5.6 <-- This should always be Cheat Engine x.x, x.x is the version number.
New Title = My Awesome New title 5.6 <-- Your new title.
Path = C:\Program Files\Cheat Engine\ <-- This should ALWAYS end with a backslash.
Executable Name = cheat Engine.exe <-- Change "cheat Engine.exe" to whatever your executable is called. It's good to rename it if the game searches process names.
Load Speed = 250 <-- Change the "250" value to a higher number if the title isn't changed, lower if you have a faster machine


If you find a bug, please report back here.
Edit 1; edited the download link. Old one got changed around o\

This just changes the title of the Cheat Engine window. Shouldn't it change the process name, too?
When I go into task manager, or Cheat Engine process list, it still says Cheat Engine.exe

perhaps that's why there's the executable name in the cfg which you have to rename yourself

Yes if you rename the Cheat Engine.exe to something else make sure you add that into the cfg. It doesn't make the change itself. I believe Anti-Virus's would tag it as malicious if it did that.
So, in order to get it to not say "Cheat Engine.exe" in task manager, just click on the Cheat Engine.exe and press F2 to rename it Smile

I made a minor change to the code. Apparently, sometimes it wouldn't launch anything. Confused

I couldn't find a place to download the previously posted files either so I recreated the functionality using an AutoHotKey script.

Should function the same as previously posted version (i.e. if you want a new process name you need to rename the executable).
If it doesn't work, let me know, I'll see what I can do, no promises.

My version of the files (executable, config, and source) can be found here: files.node0.org/pub/ce_launcher (you'll have to make that into a http url, I'm apparently not allowed to post urls).

I've made a modified version of the AutoHotKey script that doesn't use a config file, config is in variables in the script, same location as above, CELauncher_NoConfig.ahk, just the .ahk so as to not scare anyone with a potentially malicious executable.

If you have AutoHotKey installed it is just a right click on the .ahk file and selecting "edit script" to change the variables you want, save, right click .ahk file again and select "compile script" and you get an .exe

Same thing, different syntax, doesn't really matter.
I happened to have AHK available.
I rarely use either, this just seemed too lightweight and would have been too inaccessible if I'd done it in a real programming language.

I've converted the no config file to AutoIt for those that prefer that, same place, CELauncher_NoConfig.au3
