i'm hacking a flash browser-based game.
and i'm trying to make a trainer in VB.NET. well the problem is that by setting the process name to "Chrome" or "Firefox" it will not find the actual flash player process.

Edit: sometimes it finds the process. and most of the time it doesn't.
how does that work?

can anyone help please?
icould'nt really find a method for that yet? :\
anything would be useful RazzP

Edit : i found that chrome uses "pepflashplayer" and firefox uses"plugin-contrainer" for flash player process. the problem is that i still can't hook to those. by hooking to plugin-contrainer it will not find the address and change it (since its not there.)

and "pepflashplayer" is a DLL. i can't hook to that too =(

From a little trial and error, I think chrome spins up a new chrome.exe process.

Assuming you don't have a bunch of resource hogging tabs open, the process you need to find would be the one with the largest Memory usage. (Most likely) There's definitely better ways to do it, but currently I'm in class so I can't dig into it for you.

Firefox spun up a couple of processes both with flash-player in the name when I tried there. That's where I would look for your trainer.

Best way to check if this is even right is to open it up in CheatEngine. Last time I did any Flash Hacking was like 10 years ago, and IE was a single process.

What browser you are targeting at?
For Chrome
1. Run the flash game
2. Go to chrome://memory-redirect/
3. Look for a process called Pepper Plugin
The PID is on the left
Unfortunately, accessing chrome://memory-redirect/ outside Chrome browser is not possible.
You can't automate finding the PID.

For Firefox,
it probably in the Plugin container for Firefox (plugin-container.exe) or the Firefox process itself.
Try typing about:memory in URL to see how Firefox allocate memory to its components.

For IE,
It probably is the process with highest CPU and memory usage.

IMO, your trainer might not work for long because Flash player and browser updates quite often.
