I am following some examples online such as this one: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/ce0cc398-2b96-4688-b8a4-b5f4c9ebc064/memory-searcher-with-virtualqueryex-and-readprocessmemory?forum=vclanguage i think I got most of it right, so this following part is what I would like

Re: [Tutor] How do I scan memory for singles, doubles and so on?

Oh I am trying to write my own memory scanner, because I thought the Cheat Engine is pretty neat and I am just trying make one for myself. Onto the problem, I think what happens with Readprocessmemory is that BOOL WINAPI ReadProcessMemory( _In_ HANDLE hProcess, _In_ LPCVOID lpBaseAddress,

[Tutor] using while loop for read process memory

Hi all: I have the following code, and somehow I must have fed the read process Memory incorrectly. what the code does is to check a region of memory to see whether or not it can be scanned. mbi.Protect == PAGE_READWRITE and mbi.State == MEM_COMMIT If this is true,then it proceeds to scan the

I'll explain better when I get on a pc. On Oct 8, 2017 12:18 PM, "Michael C" wrote: > This is the red part > index = current_address > end = current_address + mbi.RegionSize > > while index < end: > if ReadProcessMemory(Process,

This is the red part index = current_address end = current_address + mbi.RegionSize while index < end: if ReadProcessMemory(Process, index, ctypes.byref(buffer), \ ctypes.sizeof(buffer), ctypes.byref(nread)): ## value

Re: [Tutor] using while loop for read process memory

I have no idea about ctypes or Windows, but it seems to me that you are creating a rod for your own back by using a while loop here. Why use a primitive, low-level looping construct when Python gives you much better tools? My *guess* is that somewhere you are miscalcuating when to stop, and
