unfortunately none of the updates here help me since I'm on the GamePass version - however potentially some of these little "hacks" will help get the script hobbling along just enough for you to do whatever you' need...
I'm currently on version 101.101.63581.0.0 from the Windows store. If you execute the script the "errors" will hint at stuff that is wrong. Unfortunately I have no idea about the cheat engine syntax and the language is way too low level for me (I'm a C# developer), however I was able to get the script working JUST ENOUGH to build massive armies, save, restart and trample through scenarios.
Your miles will vary w/ this approach - it did what I needed though (spam out quick armies, spam research, maybe a small fight w/ God mode). Once again, no clue what I'm doing, just got it far enough so the little checkbox opens up and I can click little cheats and save after.
Here's what I do:
1. Download current version of the CE script -as of today that's 101.101.63482.0 (s3.19)(Steam)
2. Open it up in notepad++ or your favorite editor
3. Since I'm Gamepass, I rename all instances of AoE2DE_s.exe w/ AoE2DE.exe (find/replace)
4. Next I comment out the following lines (or just remove them) since the CE was bitching about them
- 181-202 - all the lines that says assert
- 213 - readmem($process,0x049C0000)
1. Run AOE first
2. Get organized (what do I want to accomplish)
3. SAVE
4. Start the script
5. Enable cheats
6. SPAM for whatever I need (resources, research, millions of Elephants)
7. SAVE
8. At some point the game will crash, probably did several times during the above. This is a combination of version differences, game mismatch, and anti cheat
Here's the scripts "enabled" on current version
Like I said - you aren't running God Mode the entire match, but it sure makes it easier to do a few cheats here and there
I haven't tested this on the Steam version, but I'm sure it's the same principal (see what it screams about and try and see if removing it gets you far enough)
Good gaming my fellow try hards
