Cheat Engine

Hi guys,

first: thanks for your tool... i'm using it for a while and i rly enjoy it.

BUT can you add a new scan type ?

It would be like the changed value but i would be "Changed value only once" so the basic idea is that it filters only the value(s) that change one time since the first scan

This would help a lot.
Tell me if you want more detail but it should be very easy for you to implement that thing

Cheat Engine can't track what has changed only once. What if something has changed and quickly changed back before ce noticed the change ?

Also not really sure where you would use this for

Have you tried making use of saved value states ?
E.g: Unknown initial value scan, changed value, save values of current results as S1, unchanged, unchanged, unchanged, compare to value of S1: Unchanged value

well that's a point. It depends on the frequency that you choose to update your values. But it's usefull for data that changes in time > the frequency that you choosed.

What is it for ? I'm playing a game with 100hp, and i found 1'000'000 addresses with 100 as a value. Now lots of those values might not be my HP field.... and lot's of those values change. The problem is that the value swap back to 100, example of sequence: 100 -> 151 -> 100 (in 1sec).
By have a changed once option/filter, this value can be deprecated ! Cause for sure i don't have 151 hp !

Now let say i do the basic step to found my field
1) 100 HP + First Scan
2) An orc hit me (baby one more time !!!! Oh baby, baby... WHAT ?)
3) Second scan for 69 HP (WHAT ?)
4) Lots of value changed to 69 but we want the value that changed only once between first and second scan

And i'm sure that there will be more usage of that "Scan Type"

Ty Dark Byte for your time.

> Have you tried making use of saved value states ?
Yes but that's not what i need, i need to count the change(s) not to compare values

Ah ok, so you wish to do a non-stop "Unchanged value" scan from the time that you get hit the first time to right before the next time you get hit

What you could do is go to settings and bind a hotkey to "next scan:unchanged value" and press that key as long as you're not losing health (Or write a lua script that constantly does the next scan unchanged value scan)



also, next version there is a new feature that only very few people can use(dbvm feature) that is similar to this. But instead of finding addresses it finds the code that has been executed only once, or twice, and it is accurate (and slow)

Hi Dark, Ty again for your answer. I appreciate.

I might try this and i'm waiting for the new feature (which is better than my idea)

Have a nice X-Mass :p
