Objectives:
This tutorial is for beginners who know nothing about game hacking. In this tutorial you will not be making any application of your own in VB6 or VB.NET. You will hack 3D Pinball to modify your score. (Note: You will make an application for it in Part 2)
Requirements:
* TSearch (Download (http://amsterdam1.plunder.com/59235/tsearch.zip))
* 3D Pinball Game (Pre-installed with Windows XP)
Procedure:
1. Run 3D Pinball.
2. Play the game normaly till you achieve a good score of above 20000.
3. Press F3 to pause the game.
4. Open TSearch.
5. Click on the Open Process Button (img. 1.1) and from the dropdown menu select PINBALL.EXE.
6. Click on the Find Button (img. 1.2) and in the dialog box fill the values as: Search = Exact Value ; Value = <Your Current Score> ; Type = 4 Bytes. Click OK.
7. You will see two rows added to the table below the Find Button.
8. Double Click on both the rows. They will be added to the Cheat List (img. 1.3).
9. Edit the Values in the values column to the ones you want. Note that the values you enter in both the columns must be the same. Click somewhere else.
10. There are two values for the score because 1st value is stored in the variable which controls the score and the 2nd value is used to display the score.
11. Now resume your game and the score is updated to the one you set!
Conclusion:
You have successfully hacked 3D Pinball to edit your score! What TSearch does is it opens the process that you select and write the value you enter in the application's appropriate memory location which you searched. In the Part 2 you will be making an application which will read the user's value and write it to the game's memory without the user having to find the bytes which control the score.
Exercise:
Try to find the offset where runs are stored in Cricket 07.
