 Posted: Fri May 01, 2020 12:10 pm Post subject: Array of Bytes - Dropdown Options |
 |
|
Let's say a character's name is: Arnold and it's stored at memory address 00839C60. And let's say the game uses 60 (Hex) = A ... 79 (Hex) = Z, 80 (Hex) = a ... 99 (Hex) = z.
To show these lines (for editting) in cheat engine, I have it showing as such:
| Code: | 00839C60 60
00839C61 91
00839C62 8D
00839C63 8E
00839C64 8B
00839C65 83 |
Using Dropdown options, I can set it to show those hex values as letters as such:
| Code: | 00839C60 A
00839C61 r
00839C62 n
00839C63 o
00839C64 l
00839C65 d |
If I make a field with type 'Array of Bytes', starting at address 00839C60 and continuing for a length of 6, I can get it to show up as such:
| Code: | | 00839C60 60 91 8D 8E 8B 83 |
Is there anyway to use Dropdown options to make it show up as such:
| Code: | | 00839C60 A r n o l d |
I feel like there is, but I'm just overlooking it. Thanks!

Copy paste this to main CE form (right click empty space in bottom part of CE and choose paste).
| Code: | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<CheatTable>
<CheatEntries>
<CheatEntry>
<Description>"Special text (minus31)"</Description>
<LastState/>
<VariableType>Auto Assembler Script</VariableType>
<AssemblerScript>{$Lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
[ENABLE]
-- TMemoryRecord.OnGetDisplayValue
local function OnGetDisplayValue_Minus31Text(memoryrecord,valuestring)
local decodedText = ''
local base=memoryrecord.ShowAsHex and 16 or 10 -- should work for decimalAOB and hexAOB
for c in valuestring:gmatch('%x+') do -- %x matches 0-9 and a-fA-F
local byte = tonumber(c,base)
if (byte-31)<=0 then break end
decodedText=decodedText..string.char(byte-31) -- 0x60 -> 0x41
end
return true,decodedText
end
for i=0,memrec.Count-1 do
if memrec[i].Type==vtByteArray then -- only array of bytes
memrec[i].OnGetDisplayValue = OnGetDisplayValue_Minus31Text
end
end
[DISABLE]
for i=0,memrec.Count-1 do
if memrec[i].Type==vtByteArray then -- only array of bytes
memrec[i].OnGetDisplayValue = nil
end
end
</AssemblerScript>
</CheatEntry>
</CheatEntries>
</CheatTable>
|
Then move your memoryrecord entry (type: array of byte) inside just pasted memoryrecord/script.
Activate "Special text (minus31)" script.
I already have script which allows editing. I can share if you want.

Oh, boy. That looks like a confusing piece of code lol. Thanks! I'll have to implement it next time I'm on that game  .

Here, more confusing code. You can change the text after double clicking value in address list:
(remember that games do not like changing text length).
PS: I assumed space char is 0x3F and string termination is 0x00
| Code: | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<CheatTable>
<CheatEntries>
<CheatEntry>
<Description>"Special text (minus31)"</Description>
<LastState/>
<VariableType>Auto Assembler Script</VariableType>
<AssemblerScript>{$Lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
-- OldOnValueChange_Minus31Text keeps other TAddresslist.OnValueChange
-- tableWithMemrecs_Minus31Text has memoryrecords which OnValueChange should handle, also keeps decoded text
[ENABLE]
-- TMemoryRecord.OnGetDisplayValue
local function OnGetDisplayValue_Minus31Text(memoryrecord,valuestring)
local decodedText = ''
local base=memoryrecord.ShowAsHex and 16 or 10 -- should work for decimalAOB and hexAOB
for c in valuestring:gmatch('%x+') do -- %x matches 0-9 and a-fA-F
local byte = tonumber(c,base)
if (byte-31)<=0 then break end
decodedText=decodedText..string.char(byte-31) -- 0x60 -> 0x41
end
tableWithMemrecs_Minus31Text[userDataToInteger(memoryrecord)] = decodedText
return true,decodedText
end
-- TAddresslist.OnValueChange
local function OnValueChange_Minus31Text(addresslist,memoryrecord)
-- Minus31Text memrec? if decodedText=nil then this is not Minus31Text memrec
local decodedText = tableWithMemrecs_Minus31Text[userDataToInteger(memoryrecord)]
if decodedText~=nil then
local base=memoryrecord.ShowAsHex and '%x ' or '%d '
local newStr = inputQuery('Change Value (Minus31Text)', 'what value to change this to?', decodedText)
if newStr~=nil and newStr~='' then
local aob = ''
newStr:gsub('.', function (c) aob=aob..string.format(base,string.byte(c)+31) end)
memoryrecord.Value = aob..'0' -- zero terminator
end
return true
else
-- deal with other OnValueChange (if exists)
if Old_OnValueChange_Minus31Text~=nil then return Old_OnValueChange_Minus31Text(addresslist,memoryrecord) end
end
return false
end
Old_OnValueChange_Minus31Text = AddressList.OnValueChange
AddressList.OnValueChange = OnValueChange_Minus31Text
tableWithMemrecs_Minus31Text = {}
for i=0,memrec.Count-1 do
if memrec[i].Type==vtByteArray then -- only array of bytes
memrec[i].OnGetDisplayValue = OnGetDisplayValue_Minus31Text
end
end
[DISABLE]
AddressList.OnValueChange=Old_OnValueChange_Minus31Text
for i=0,memrec.Count-1 do
if memrec[i].Type==vtByteArray then -- only array of bytes
memrec[i].OnGetDisplayValue = nil
end
end
tableWithMemrecs_Minus31Text = {}
</AssemblerScript>
</CheatEntry>
</CheatEntries>
</CheatTable>
|
PSS: @DarkByte, too bad OnValueChange is only for AddressList...
