Cheat Engine is an open source tool designed to help you with modifying games so you can make them harder or easier depending on your preference(e.g: Find that 100hp is too easy, try playing a game with a max of 1 HP), but also contains other usefull tools to help debugging games and even normal applications.

It comes with a Memory Scanner to quickly scan for variables used within a game and allow you to change them, but it also comes with a debugger, disassembler, assembler, speedhack, trainer maker, direct 3D manipulation tools, system inspection tools and more.

For new users it is recommended to go through the tutorial(The one that comes with Cheat Engine, you can find it in your programs list after installing) and at least reach step 5 for basic understanding of the usage of Cheat Engine.

It searches for values input by the user with a wide variety of options such as "Unknown Initial Value" and "Decreased Value" scans. Cheat Engine can also create standalone trainers which function on their own without Cheat Engine. Cheat Engine can also view the disassembled memory of a process and make alterations to give the user advantages such as infinite health, time or ammunition. It also has some Direct3D manipulation tools, allowing you to see through walls, zoom in/out and with some advanced configuration allows Cheat Engine to move the mouse for you to get a certain texture into the center of the screen.

Changes:

# added 'short' and 'far' override to the jump instructions. (Mainly usefull for auto assembler scripts that by default pick the far one)
# copied the "Find out what addresses this code accesses" from advanced options to memory view
# Made the above function display the current value so you don't have to add them first
# And made it non-modal so you can do other stuff while it's working.
# Improved custom scan so it can now also display the results
# New speedhack implementation
# New AutoAssembler window
# Removed the question if you want a new scan. (You must now click on new scan yourself)
# Added GlobalAlloc to the autoassembler
# The dissect structure window can now be opened multiple times (for comparison)
# Structures are now saved in the cheat table
# The main ce window now has a menu (can be disabled in settings if you don't like it)
# The processlist can now show process icons. (could be slow, so can be disabled in settings)
# The settings window has been changed from tabs to a list
# Added a tools menu so people can add quicklaunch apps. (e.g: calc)
# Added the option to save and load tables as XML
# Changed copy/pasting of entries to XML
# Helpfile changed from .HLP to .CHM , also incorporated the plugin documentaion in the helpfile instead of a seperate .RTF
# Added a few new functions to the plugin system and made the examples easier to understand (Mainly for helping with assembly scripts)
# Added ...
