Cheat Engine

[SevenRechlin]

I have a problem trying to make cheats for the old original UT. I can get into the game and make a cheat for unlimited ammo, etc. But every time I load to a new game I have to make a new cheat.

I tried some things in the tutorial and did the replace line thing (second to last tutorial) which worked, but made the enemy invulnerable as well.

So then I tried to make a pointer, but when it came to searching for the hex string I would get no results. Tried many times and different things and always nothing. Anyone else have this game that may know something of what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

i tryed to do what you said and i ran into the same thing, so sorry, cant help ya.

Make a table with several addresses like health and ammo

my gues is that ammo is easier to find so just shoot a few times till you've found your ammo, and then use that to recalculate the address for health (and other addresses as well)

[wuncap]

yes, but when you open it back up it changes, and i cant get pointers to work for it

[Leonidas]

As I said, when you open it back up, just search for ammo, and then just recalculate the other addresses (rightclick ammo, and choose recalculate all addresses)
it saves time in searching the other addresses.
but if you know a bit assembler you could write a auto assemble script that does a check if the current health or ammo belongs to the player or not, and in the case of the player dont decrease. (kinda like the dungeon siege 2 auto assemble script posted in the tables/trainers section on this forum)

And regarding pointers, if you can't find it with the hex scan you may need to look at the assembler code and see what and how the register is changed, or try the static address scanner in the memory view window

i dont know asm =/, i have enough trouble reading it
hell im still learing C++

you need to use ---> find out what accesses your found health address,,, not what writes to it,,

you should get some code line like mov eax,[esi+00000314],,
this code writes to yours and the bots health,,

add it to the code list , you can use this to find the health pointer,,,


ok start a new game ,

and in the advanced options window, right click on the code line that accesess ours and the bots health, and choose .. FIND OUT WHAT ADDRESSES THIS CODE READS FROM.....

your health and the bots will appear in the window as you all take your hits,

so for instance there is only you and one bot in the oblivion level,, so you get 2 addresses come up,,
you double click on them to add them to the address list,,

put 200 in one address and 300 in the other,, go back into the game, if your health shows 200 or 300 use that address,,

lets say its the 300 address and that address is 23E1714,,

so we right click on this address and find out what accesses this address,,
we look to see when our code line -->> mov eax,[esi00000314]
appears in the window,,,

select that code line, hit the MORE INFO button and see what is in the ESI register.....I found 2F93C00
select the hex box and put that into the value field, and hit the next scan button...
you'll get plenty of addresses,,
start a new game and if you like a new level, and see what --> mov eax,[esi+00000314] writes to this time,,,

do another hex search on the address held in ESI, without the offset remember,,
till you get one address left I got 0310DC30
,,
you can add this to the address list and see what writes to it,,--- I got------>> mov eax,[edx+30] which gives us 0310DC00.. just to see the code behind our pointer,,

anyway if you click the pointer check box and enter ------>> 0310DC30 as the address of the pointer and 314 in the offset box, this should do the trick,,

,.,.,.. if your pointer is different from mine you should still find yours by this method,,

and as a postscript, see how useful it is to have the code that writes to your addresses handy,, you can find your health and ammo addresses, without screwing up your pointer search,{ saves you having two instances of cheat engine open,, that can get confusing}

usually the more info button does the job for you , it finds your pointer and shows the offset,,

oh and it makes it easier while your searching to play the game in windowed mode,,
you can click on the minimize button in the game or change the UnrealTournament.ini
in the [WinDrv.WindowsClient] part change startupfullscreen
to
startupfullscreen=false
so you can flick your mouse between the game and cheat engine.....
you can change it back when you finished messing about with the game..


heres a few pics in no particular order
the main window shows where I went further back than I needed...
the health pointer is holding 999 (3e7 in hex but you just put in 999)
the temp health and ammo pointer is a general pointer I just had a peek at,,

oh and if your wondering why I'm using cheat engine 4.4,,
it's because I have got cheat engine 5 on the slave drive and it takes a while to spin up, as I let it turn of to save juice most of the time(eco friendly me), when I get round to reformatting I can use it all the time then

... and it´s not for cheating!! I want to make Ut99 fully Oculus Rift compatible!!

I´m trying to learn about CheatEngine because of Vireio Perception Drivers, i need to create a vrboost "ut99.MTBS".......

More information about this on mtbs3d vireio perception forums (i can´t post web links, but download is public and it comes with documentation about Vrboost profile creation)

BTW, it works nearly perfect simply by adding a line like this in:
