NFS Undercover - I need $$$

I'm just curious as to whether anyone else has found out how the money is stored in this game. I've tried everything I can think of searching for; short, long, float, exact value, range, unknown, etc. but I just can't find the address.
As always, any help is greatly appreciated. It's driving me crazy. :lol:

Em... Maybe that's client-sided or something ?Hem.. Try to use CheatEngine, it is most easy to hack money for me, I'm not sure of it, I don't have a CheatEngine now but I been used that for hacking "Offline" games' money.


Hope that help you.

No, I play NFS Undercover offline so there's only client side. CE doesn't help any better, I've already tried that. I believe the game is storing it differently to prevent people from making trainers so easily or the address is so dynamic it changes from one menu to the next. I use MHS to hack all my games, online and offline. CE is only used because it supports the only thing MHS doesn't, SSE instructions.

I've been around, here and there. Just been spending my free time hacking offline games, trying to learn how to find correct complex pointers easily. Some games are easier than others and this is the only one that gave me nothing no matter how I searched. Well, I'm just glad it's not the only game I have. :D

Sorry, I don't know where it was released exactly.

I believe that there is no such server-sided/client-sided in Offline (Single Player) Games...

Whoa.. If someone like you can’t found it, could be mean that only mezzo or L. Spiro himself
can help you.. XD

You didn’t include Byte in your post. But, i’m pretty sure you had try byte in your search..
In desperation, i always use Byte - Unknown, followed by Same as Before and/or Different
from Before.. And if it fails, i'll just give up...

:P

Thanks WhiteHat! I didn't actually try doing different from before, only increased and decreased.

I found the money value, it's a short type but the bytes are reversed (ie: if you have 7,000 cash the bytes would be 1B58, or 22,555 and for 9999 it would be 270F, or 3,879.) I knew it was stored differently than usual. :D Now I need to try to find a working complex addy and where the rest is stored.

Nice...

So the money stored using Big Endian, instead of Little Endian (which we meet in most
games today).. The last game uses it that i know of was SimCity 2000...

But the best thing is MHS Converter shows both of them: MHS > TOOLS > CONVERTER
