Hello guys.

Im new to gamehacking / coding etc and do have a question. I downloaded a trainer which is already compiled to an .exe file. But it is targeting the wrong process so the adresses of the game itself wont getting read by the trainer.

My thought now was to edit the process name in the .exe file (with some sort of reverse engineering), to get the trainer working correctly again, but i do not know how to do it properly, or rather if its possible at all.

It looks like the trainer is build up with .NET, and i dont think that its protected on any ways.

Would be great if you could answer my question, thanks!

(I could also link the URL of the trainer if you guys want to check urself!)

Change the name of the game.exe to what the trainer is expecting?

Not working since the game runs through a launcher which will not accept a renamed .exe

Contact the author of the trainer. The author will be more than happy to help you, at least i have done this a bazillion times for people. There is a possibility that the trainer also has scripts that target a different game exe name so even if you make it inject right, it still won't work...so yeah ask the author.

If that fails, change the exe name through a hex editor or if its unprotected .net through .net reflactor.

Well since the Trainer is like 5 years old and didnt got updated till today, theres also no way to contact the creator because all related sites are down.
Added to this the game is pretty old so most ppl dont care about it anymore.
You could probably know the game, its called Phanty Star Online Blue Burst. (PSOBB)

Open the trainer in a hex editor and search for the old EXE name, see if it can be changed to the new one. Since it was .NET the string is most likely in unicode so make sure your hex editor can search for unicode strings.
