I'll keep this short.

When you type "hidden test" in Pinball, you can move the ball with your mouse.

I'm making a trainer to get a feel for basic memory editing and wanted to add this as an extra feature.

How can I simulate typing hidden test in pinball with c++?

I have already tried:

Code:
char* SendText = "hidden test";

for( int i = 0; i <= strlen( SendText ); i++ )
PostMessage( HWND, WM_CHAR, SendText[i], 0 );


Code:
PostMessage(hWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, 0, 0x48); //h down 
PostMessage(hWnd, WM_KEYUP, 0, 0x48);   //h up
//used this to type out all the other letters too


Code:
SendMessage(hWnd, WMCHAR, 0 , (long)"hidden test");
//might have typed this wrong..forgot the exact parameter order but you get the idea


Code:
SendString(hWnd, TEXT("hidden test"), 50);

//(This is Irwin's function)
VOID SendString(__in HWND hWnd, __in_z LPCTSTR lpcszMessage, __in_opt UINT uSleep = 0)
{
  for (int i = 0; i < lstrlen(lpcszMessage); i++, Sleep(uSleep))
   SendMessage(hWnd, WM_CHAR, lpcszMessage[i], 0);
}


Running out of idea here. Can I get some input?

Or you can just do it the easy way and find the address in about 4 seconds.

O mighty slovach, how might I do that? Confused

I can find addresses that have logic behind them...like ammo, hp, etc.
But how would I find it?

You can't turn it off without closing the game, so I don't know how to narrow down the addresses in this case.

I'm pretty sure you can disable it if I remember right?

This is also why you have the other search functions in CE. Search unknown, search changed, etc, etc.


Anyway, it's probably just a simple disabled, enabled deal (0 and 1 respectively).

Thanks Holly, that's the right address.

New problem. I believe I have gotten correct privileges to write to pinball's memory but it doesn't seem to be working.

Code:
void __fastcall TForm1&#58;&#58;CheckBox2Click&#40;TObject *Sender&#41;
&#123;

         if&#40; SetDebugPrivileges&#40;&#41; != 0 &#41;
return;
    else &#123;



         HWND hWnd = FindWindow&#40;0, "3D Pinball for Windows - Space Cadet"&#41;;
         HANDLE hProcess = 0;
         DWORD PID = 0;
         GetWindowThreadProcessId&#40; hWnd, &PID &#41;;
         hProcess = OpenProcess&#40; PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, false, PID &#41;;



VirtualProtectEx&#40; hProcess, &#40;LPVOID&#41;&#40;DWORD&#41;0x01000000, 0x5, PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE, NULL &#41;;
BYTE haxOn&#91;2&#93; = &#123; 0x01, 0x00 &#125;;

if&#40;CheckBox3->Checked == true&#41;
WriteProcessMemory&#40; hProcess, &#40;LPVOID&#41;&#40;DWORD&#41;0x01024FF8, &haxOn, 2, NULL &#41;;

&#125; //closes the else

&#125;  //closes the whole functon


Yes, this is Borland C++ Builder. I am starting to think the code is right but the code proprietary to Borland is wrong ( the CheckBox3->Checked == true; part). Can anyone confirm this?

Edit: Ok wtf is it just me or is this code full of random "&#125;"'s and stuff.

I dont know why I cant paste my code without it turning into symbols and stuff...so heres the code at pastebin if anyone has the time. http://pastebin.com/m2dcb416a

1. Step through it in the debugger
2. Throw some GetLastError() after your calls.
