Help needed.

[Skilinium]

I guess someone here has experience with "Cheat engine".

My question was, how do i let AutoIt read a "text" value from cheat engine's address list.

I dont got any clue on what to do

[Skilinium]

The address im trying to read is 00740EB8 (text value)

Could someone help me?

[sandman]

WinGetText() may do the trick, but if it's in a table.. I don't know if that will work.

But I would give it a try

[Skilinium]

Yes, but the thing is, im scanning for a certain text value.

Example.

Im in town. (Town1.)

I get teleported to (Town2.)

I want to scann for "Town2." And execute a function once that text piece is found.. my question i dont know how to do that

[alex OF DEATH]

Well I know you probably don't want to do this, but AutoIt does have some memory UDF's (somewhere...) which would let you scan/edit memory values, all in the script itself.

That's all I can really contribute to this topic. Sorry.

[Skilinium]

Well, this is what i have so far.. but it's bugged like hell and i cant solve it

#include <Memory.au3>

$ProcessID = WinGetProcess("Mythwar - PlayerID 188469")

$compare1 = _MemoryRead(0x00740EB8,,char[8])

$Handle = _MemoryOpen($ProcessID)

_MemoryClose($Handle)

MsgBox(4096, "Returned", "Town = " & $compare1)

Anyone ?

[alex OF DEATH]

Is "_MemoryRead(0x00740EB8,,char[8]" Supposed to have two commas?

[Skilinium]

Well, between the comma's is a function that i dont know how to use.. ^^

If anyone would be freely to help me or provide me with a quick sample

[Zephir]

what memory func do u include? the one from Nomad?

[Zephir]

If so, this would be the code of _MemoryRead():

Func _MemoryRead($iv_Address, $ah_Handle, $sv_Type = 'dword')
    
    If Not IsArray($ah_Handle) Then
        SetError(1)
        Return 0
    EndIf
    
    Local $v_Buffer = DllStructCreate($sv_Type)
    
    If @Error Then
        SetError(@Error + 1)
        Return 0
    EndIf
    
    DllCall($ah_Handle[0], 'int', 'ReadProcessMemory', 'int', $ah_Handle[1], 'int', $iv_Address, 'ptr', DllStructGetPtr($v_Buffer), 'int', DllStructGetSize($v_Buffer), 'int', '')
    
    If Not @Error Then
        Local $v_Value = DllStructGetData($v_Buffer, 1)
        Return $v_Value
    Else
        SetError(6)
        Return 0
    EndIf
    
EndFuncoÝ÷ Ù«2¢ë{*.綩j¶¦z׫±«­¢+ØÀÌØí¥Ù}ÉÍÌ°ÀÌØí¡}!¹±°ÀÌØíÍÙ}QåÁôÌäíݽÉÌä

$sv_Type is the type of value you are going to read from Memory --> 'Town2' would be a Sting so char[8] is fine

[Zephir]

Well, this is what i have so far.. but it's bugged like hell and i cant solve it

#include <Memory.au3>

$ProcessID = WinGetProcess("Mythwar - PlayerID 188469")

$compare1 = _MemoryRead(0x00740EB8,,char[8])

$Handle = _MemoryOpen($ProcessID)

_MemoryClose($Handle)

MsgBox(4096, "Returned", "Town = " & $compare1)

You always open the memory FIRST, then you read/write it, then you close it IN THE END! Works like a book

To fix your example, try this:

#include <Memory.au3>

$ProcessID = WinGetProcess("Mythwar - PlayerID 188469")

$Handle = _MemoryOpen($ProcessID)

$compare1 = _MemoryRead(0x00740EB8,$Handle,char[8])

_MemoryClose($Handle)

MsgBox(4096, "Returned", "Town = " & $compare1)

What i did:

1. swapped _MemoryOpen and _MemoryRead lines

2. inserted $Handle as second parameter in _MemoryRead()

i found your problem!!!

In line 7: put "" around the expression char[8]

that sould do it
