Cheat Engine tutorial: finding difficult values using Alignment search

[@MorpheusCh]

You are a legend, I was only able to narrow it down to 17 addresses but by freezing each value one by one I was able to figure out which ones didn't change upon increase. You earned my sub.

[@q7b663]

did you make (or are you planning on making) a video about finding decrypted/encrypted values? i'm having a tough time with this issue

[@crazydescent]

Don't have experience with encryption+cheatengine, which game? You could try asking on forum.cheatengine.org/

[@WhoLivesInAPineappleUnderTheC]

is cheat engine able to change the difficulty of maps?
like i have in my game a map with 6 out of 8 stars and i want to make it 8 out of 8

[@crazydescent]

Probably not..I assume the stars are generated or hand-made based on the map difficulty. Just changing the stars won't change the map

[@TheReaperOfChess]

But how do you find a value you cannot change? hmm?

[@crazydescent]

@@TheReaperOfChess what do you mean?

Hey is there anyway i can contact you ?

[@iDontWannaDieIniraq]

Thank you sir, I'm having trouble finding a diamonds value in the main menu of mission select you know like the mission reward is 50 diamond so i wanna change it to something big, and advice of finding this type of values?

[@crazydescent]

Which game?

[@iDontWannaDieIniraq]

@@crazydescent bounty rush

[@crazydescent]

Multiplayer game right? Values are probably stored/handled on server and not locally

[@iDontWannaDieIniraq]

@@crazydescent
Game name bounty rush I'm 100% sure the value is not server sided the problem is i can't find it because this type of value can't be changed its static number like 50

[@crazydescent]

Well you could scan the total of diamonds you have, and every time you get 50, you can check for the new value. Then you can change your total

[@winterstronghold2197]

What does it mean if the value I change keeps reverting back even after I lock it? I am trying to change how much money I have on a game, and most currencies on the game work except for the premium currency which seems to be protected somehow, I tried looking at what writes/accesses to the address but still no luck and I do different scans, 2 byte, 4 byte, and I change the alignment and I keep getting the same address/value that just reverts back after I change it.

[@crazydescent]

@@winterstronghold2197 could be a value being loaded from a server in case of online/multiplayer game, or a value that's actually a pointer to other address that keeps being reloaded to other addresses.

[@winterstronghold2197]

@@crazydescent How do you work with pointer addresses? This is def not online/server sided,

[@crazydescent]

@@winterstronghold2197 check out the tutorial in Cheat Engine menu

[@winterstronghold2197]

@@crazydescent In the 2nd case, how would I work around it? I know the first scenario can't be worked around but if its a pointer. Is there a video you would recommend on how to work with pointer addresses?

[@randymarsh9488]

I'm playing a game where there's no number value at all, it's just a green bar How do I find that number?
For example morale.....and fuel have no value

[@crazydescent]

Here's a good vid about that sort of stuff: ruclips.net/video/NaGJXChkwGc/видео.html
