I haven't used Cheat Engine since 6.5 so it's probable things have changed since.
What I've tried to do worked with CE 6.5.

I'm trying to rearrange an instruction in memory view.
mov [some addr],ecx
to
mov a_specific_number_in_hex, ecx
(mov 18C, ecx in this case)


I know CE will need to do some padding for lacking bytes but It doesn't allow me to set it to any number:
"I don't know what you mean by: mov 18c,ecx"

Does anyone know how to replace this address with a number for the mov instruction?

Code:
mov [address],ecx
ecx is the source and [address] is the destination.
Code:
mov 18c,ecx
18c is a literal. It makes no sense as a destination. You might want to reverse it, but if you thought the original instruction was a read, that instruction might not be relevant at all.

oh duh
I always get confused which side is src and destination
I meant to do: mov [addr],18c
Thanks for the help
