Cheat Engine

[shakib187]

I'm wondering if anyone has some knowledge on this. In games any game, I'll use kingdoms of amalur for example, there is a system in which if you block within 500 milliseconds or lower of an enemy attack you will parry it not just block. Where as if you just hold block the "parry" does not occur, is there any way to search this value so that even when its a regular block the game thinks its a parry? I have tried using changed/unchanged but I am getting no results. So I am wondering if anyone on cheat engine has any idea on how its programmed and can shed some light on this..

What about with c++ if its not possible with CE, I am guessing I will have to find the base entity and distance to the mob closest to me to check if its attacking or not? and block depending on it

I'm not sure about this game, but the first approach I would take is this:

1. Reduce the game speed

2. Search for changed / unchanged value for enemy attack
-Search for unknown initial value (4 byte might work)
-As soon as the enemy attacks, search for changed value
-Wait, and after you are attacked and the value resets, search for changed value (may require trial and error, depending on how long the attack value stays at true)
-Repeat as necessary, include unchanged value searches if you get impatient

3. Once you have found the value (for example, let's say that when the enemy attacks, the value at a particular address changes from 0 to 1 and vice versa), you can move on to finding the the value for your block/parry button
-Change game speed to normal for this if you want
-Search for unknown initial value of 4 byte (it may only be 2 byte or 1 byte)
-Press and hold the button/key for block/parry, search for changed value
-Let go of button/key and search for changed value
-Search for unchanged value
-Repeat steps until you have found the button for block/parry (for example, let's say that when you press the key or button to block, the value at a particular address changes from 0 to 1 and vice versa).

4. Once you have both addresses and values, you can inject code anywhere you want (for example, at the instruction that accesses the attack value). Simply inject code that checks if the value at the attack is equal to 1 or not...if it is, force the value of the key/button to be 1, so that the game automatically performs the parry for you.

This is only one of many ways to approach this. You may have to do something similar to this:

Injection at attack address:

Thanks for the posts guys

Gniarf I don't have the source code to the game, but I think what methos said was better instead of using c++, just comparing enemy attack then moving block to it instead using asm. Although I am trying to figure out why enemy attack instead of hero taking damage maybe because you can take damage from multiple instances, falling/poison etc?, I will post the code if any exists on my game.
