Ok, well I've done my fair share of leeching, and I've decided to learn how to develop my own hacks and such (I play Maplestory ftw), and we all have to start somewhere, right?

I've completed the CE Tutorial (Last step took a guide, but I fully understand it.), and I have decided to create a script for Minesweeper.

Code:

[enable]
alloc(waffles,512)
registersymbol(waffles)

0100579C:
mov eax, [waffles]
mov [0100579C], eax

[disable]
dealloc(waffles)
unregistersymbol(waffles)

0100579C:
inc [0100579C]


This works, but not how I want it to. What happens is as follows:

1. Search untill the address for time is gotten (0100579C)
2. Find out what write to the address (01002FFS: inc [0100579C] )
3. Add script to CT
4. Tick AA Script
5. Add Address Manually (Address: waffles)
6. Change "waffles" value to w/e
7. The first address (0100579C) changes to w/e I put for "waffles"

However, I have to minimize the Minesweeper program in order for the time to change to what I put for "waffles".

It will carry out the simple opcode such as "dec [0100579C]", without me having to minimize, but not this. Is there a reason?

p.s. I'm going to try changing the opcode to a "mov" instruction, and see how that turns out.

Edit: Ok, I think that it's just what I'm trying to do. I changed the opcode to a "mov" instruction, and the time froze (as before), and I had to minimize, and bring back up in order to see the desired time.

Is the address you found that writes this address a green (static) address?

Go here and look how DarkByte wrote the script for Pinball.
