FearLess Cheat Engine

Hi, all.

I have been using cheat engine for quite a while now in very basic instances like editing money in a game. I was playing Riptide Renegade GP and wanted to edit the cash. Excuse me beforehand because I have a very basic understanding of how CE works. Usually I'd just search for the current cash amount, then spend a little and narrow down the address until I found it and then I can edit it. Most of the time that works perfectly.

But with Riptide Renegade, I search for the cash and it finds many entries on the first scan. I then spend some cash and do a second scan but the all the addresses disappear.

What should I be searching for instead? I don't know the technical terms as you can see I don't get super in depth in the games, I usually just edit the cash most of the time. Thank you!

What type are you searching for? 4 byte? Float? Double? or All?

For starters, Money can be many different types of values. Secondly, it could be that the value you see on the screen is not the true value.

Hi Rhark!

I normally use Scan Type: Exact Value and Value Type : 4 bytes. That setting works quite a lot of the time. But when I use it for this game, I see the value pop up several times on the first scan. Then I spend some of the money, put the new amount in the Value field and perform a Next Scan and nothing comes up.

It's worth trying other data types to ensure you have ruled them out as the potential cause. Rhark has given solid advice.

Thank you very much, I'll keep playing with it and see what I find, thank you.
