Hi all,
I used strstr before in AA scripts successfully with x86 mode games.
I am working on an x64 title and when I call strstr from my AA script, CE will assemble there a far call to ntoskrnl.strsrt - except the memory execution is supposed to be passed to is uninitialized; it's full of ?? marks.

Is this a bug because the assembled call points to the wrong address?
If not a bug, should CE drop an error in this case? (why does it put there something that's invalid?)

Any ideas how to do a case (in)sensitive substring search in x64 mode in an AA script (without LUA)?

Thank you!

When CE encounters a symbol in an AA script, it uses the first occurrence of that symbol it happens to find. If you want a specific one, define it in your script manually. (labels local to the script seem to be preferred during symbol lookup)

Thanks for the tip!
I'll try your CCODE method next and get back.

I can't seem to get the value back in the asm code to action it ('result' is lost?) and I get a crash.

I assume I am doing it wrong, so I posted that question in DB's example thread here.

Thank you!

Edit
This works in AA, no crash.

I replied in the other thread, just make sure you declare the function else there will be issues

as for it prefering ntoskrnl.strsrt is because you may have ticked kernelmode symbols in memview->view , and most usermode apps have no access to that memory. Do as ParkourPenguin mentions, and define it using a local symbol first
