Hi all,
Sorry to bother you with this simple question, but i don't really understand how to script this little thing...
I want to make a trainer for the game "Witch Hunt", and i want to activate a "no reload" function on my weapon.
I found a pointer which is equal to "0" or "1". This pointer is exactly what i need to do the trick (if I freeze the value to "1", then i can shoot without reloading).

Now i want to make my trainer, but I don't know how to bind a script to my button, and I don't know how to do this little script.
I just need to change the value to "1" and freeze it, i think it's not really hard to do but i don't know where to go ^^

Can someone help me ?
Thank you

Sure thing, seems you've done the hard part already.

Add the pointer to the address list and see what sets it to 0 or checks for a 1.
Then, use an AA template to either NOP the instruction or set it to 1.

Note: if enemies use it, they'll benefit from this, too - if that happens, you will need to build in a player check.

You can make a trainer from an AA script, but you can also assign hotkeys in the address list. AA scripts are easier to maintain and edit. Up to you.

Good luck!

Thanks for your reply

So i tried to use my pointer to make my script, here are my steps :
- Right-click on my pointer and choose "Find out what writes to this address"
- Select "Find what writes the address pointed at by this pointer" (the first option didn't find anything)
- In-game, I shot one bullet
- An event was found, so i click on "Show disassembler"
- In "Tools", i select "Auto Assemble"
- Here, i create an AOB Injection template and i replace the line of code which remove my bullet (here that's mov [rax+0000022C],ecx)
- A little code for disabling my script and that's good to go (just a copy of the previous instruction, in red)
- Next "File -> Assign to current cheat table"

Nice, if I activate my script, it works !!!

But if I close the game, disable my script, and restart the game, it doesn't work anymore

What's my problem here ? my pointer is correct but the address in the instruction is wrong ? Or something else ?

First off, congrats!

If you close the game, you need to attach CE to the process again and enable the script as well.

Yep I did this, obviously , but it didn't work :/

[Csimbi]

In that case, I think the code may be at a different location at each game start and you need to turn your script into what we call an AOB script.
It means that rather having an instruction replaced at a fixed address, you do an AOB scan - which will try to find the correct instruction and once found, you replace the instruction at that location.

I'll try to find how to do this thanks

In Auto Assembler window, i found out that the "Injection Point" is not the same when i restart the game.

Ex :

[Csimbi]

Replace "163BDC04" wiith "INJECT", that will take care of the address changes.

Other than that, it should work now every time, as long as the AOB signature is unique and it is found.

Pretty solid work for someone with just 3 posts, congrats!

Here you will find some more templates - including the ones I use. *shameless advertisement*

And this hack here inserts more instructions into the comments - makes future updates somewhat easier, especially in case of dynamically generated code.
