Memory Scanning & Resource Hacking with Cheat Engine [Game Hacking 101]

Learn to influence how Age of Empires works by directly finding and modifying data in the process memory by making use of Cheat Engine.

If we can find a pointer to the base address of the player object in memory, we can then dereference and follow that pointer, then once we have the dynamic location, we can follow offsets from that dynamic base address to find and modify the player’s resources – an infinite resource cheat.
