Cheat Engine

[fronin]

Hi People,
I've been using cheat engine 6.2 for a while now, and i've been practicing on a game called Assult Cube. I go through however many pointers there are to find the static address for ammo. When I finally find it the value of the address is always a big intimidating number. When I try to change this value for my ammo it crashes the game. Please help!!!

P.S. The value isn't a hex either. :?

You haven't found the right address.

Here's a simple step by step procedure:

1. Look at your ammo in game, and search that value, 4 bytes, exact
2. Shoot a couple times and search for that value next.
3. Rinse repeat until you find a value that corresponds to ammo, freeze it to make sure.
4. right click addy> find out what accesses this address, go back in game, shoot, should pop up some entries in the debugger.
5. Write down the offsets and search for the value in hex.
6. Add address manually, check "pointer" type in offset, type in address of the corresponding hex value you entered earlier.
7. If the pointer above has the same value as the original ammo addy, you've done it right.
8. Right click> find out what accesses this address, rinse repeat steps 4-7 until you find the static (green) adresses.

Note: this might not be the best way to do it, but it's the way I learned.

Did you try the "pointer scan for this address" option?
