Copy entire memory region - How to do That?

Post by marek1957 »

Hi, i want to copy the entire memory region and paste it into text
however selecting it manually is very slow
is there a way to select the entire memory region?

i want to copy the original memory region and then compare it with the changed memory region (because i dont know what address is changed).
making use of winmerge, i will be able to know which is the address being changed and what are the changes.

saving it as memory region (CEM file) does not allow me to compare

Why not just change the start/stop addresses (under the value type) to the start/end of the memory region and do an unknown initial value scan and then a changed scan?

However you can use a little lua code to select it:

Code: Select all

getMemoryViewForm().DisassemblerView.SelectedAddress = 0x20000
getMemoryViewForm().DisassemblerView.SelectedAddress2 = 0x21002
alternatively

Code: Select all

local start = 0x20000
local size = 0x1002

getMemoryViewForm().DisassemblerView.SelectedAddress = start
getMemoryViewForm().DisassemblerView.SelectedAddress2 = start+size
just change the address(es)/size and run the code in the lua engine.

Note that getMemoryViewForm returns the main form that you get when clicking the "Memory view" button in CE.

A simple ctrl+c and then ctrl+v in notepad works for me... of course make sure the memory viewer is selected before copying

HAHAHAHAH I am so stupid.... I was trying to use CTRL+ALT+C but it wasn't working .... I don't know why I want always to choose the hard way...

I have last question - I need plugin to cheat engine 6.7 which will be showing me the changes in memory region after activating scripts. Can stealth edit plugin v2.4 can do that?

I've never used stealth edit but as far as I know it doesn't, not sure of any other plugin either.
