Strings not found

[trialusert]

First of all I'm sorry for creating too many threads... To topic:
I'm trying to find strings that appear in a game-console, but none seem to be found. The console strings usually look like:
"[name1] was killed by [name2]'s [weapon]."
I ran all types of string searches (I also disalbed the following options: "Match case", "Match Whole Word Only", "Alinged") but still found nothing.

(Important to say that there's no extra process for the console, only the game process).

What am I doing wrong?

Do not include the name of the players in the search.

Search for “ was killed by ”.
Do not used Aligned searches.
Use ASCII and Unicode.

I just tried to search for " was killed by ", but again nothing was found...

[L. Spiro]

Do the rest I mentioned.

I did, I tried all types of searches (not only ASCII / Unicode) without the "Alinged" option. Couldn't find " was killed by ".

Looking deeper into this issue, I found out that only parts of the console-strings are being found. For example, I can find: "by Mike's MP40", which is the ending part of the string "Arik was killed by Mike's MP40".

Use Wildcards.
“* was killed by *'s *”.

Disable Whole Words Only.

Using it makes the search stuck and disconnects me from the game-server

Then shorten the search range. You do not need to scan system modules.

I realized that the console strings start in different locations each time... From now on I'll use scripts to retrieve what's needed.
But I got a question: MHS updates the current value of all found addresses 10-times per second (by default). Is it accomplished by calling ReadProcessMemory() 10-times per second for all addresses, or is there a more efficient way to update the addresses values?

[L. Spiro]

10 times per second for all addresses.
