Question A certain game.

  #1  
Nov 7th, 2007
Hi all, i'm new so not sure if this is the right place or not. But none the less i'm hoping someone can put me somewhere in the right direction!
Basically i'm wanting to know is it possible to open ax existing exe? to create further add-ons to its existing file?
I'm playing on a certain computer game, i currently open its exe, then later on afterwards open another exe, obviously to click on the software to make me do things on the game which isn't suppose to be allowed. (Basically a program to make me get through the game alot easier, a cheat.)
Now i'm not sure which software can do this? as i'm looking at Visual C to get in to this swing of things? i've entirely no idea which way to go about this route, but wanting to learn how to desperately. So if i can open the exe and add possible add-ons to it, which software could do that? with later on which software do i use to actually place the add ons to the exe?

I know its a broad question, or atleast it is to me! any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

No, it's not. Look somewhere else to learn how to program cheats and exploits. I won't say good luck - I hope you fail miserably.

Well, it's not imposssible, but that's it. You'll have to look or a decompiler and if your lucky you'll get some usefull assembly-code. But to understand this code you would have to be an expert-assembly-programmer.
My advice is: learn to play without cheating

you're also going to get into loads of trouble if you're caught.
Especially with online games it is NOT considered nice to cheat. And in many cases you can end up in court over breaching the license of the game as well (as they pretty much always tell you that decompiling is NOT allowed).
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

They do care if it gets to be a problem online. When players cheat online to win, then it becomes a huge problem.
