[20100107] GameConqueror 0.08 -- Linux Hacking Tool
-migrated-
So for a long time there's not been quite a good cheating tool so far, except for a cli one -- scanmem.

Weeks before I decided to make a gui front-end for it, called Game Conqueror, and thanks to Tavis (the original author of scanmem), it's become a part of scanmem.
I also work on scanmem in order to implement more functions, and adjust it to be more suitable for a backend.

The GUI is supposed to be CE-alike, while a great difference between them is that data width is handled automatically in GC/scanmem, this is more convenience but leading to a bad performance -- I'm still working on it.

And another 'weird' thing is even when searching & locking float/double number, you have to type in a integer -- and rounding will be used.

Updated: 2010-01-07
Currently all basic scans on all basic data types have been implemented

searching:exact number, increased(by), decreased(by), greaterthan, lessthan, changed, unchanged
data type:int8/16/32/64, float32/64, or unknown width
locking: exact number

I'm working on memory viewer/editor and byte array searching etc, but I'm afraid I don't have enough time recently. So contributors will be welcomed, please contact me if you're interesting in GC.

And of course, the web page:
http://code.google.com/p/scanmem/

Updated: Now a PPA is available:
https://launchpad.net/~coolwanglu/+archive/scanmem
enjoy!


Updated: Now there's a v0.08 release on the above site, enjoy!

And SVN checkout:
svn checkout http://scanmem.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ scanmem

To build, you need
automake
python
pygtk

./configure && make
and execute 'gui/GameConqueror.py'

Hope it'll be useful for some of you.
So... its not released, but its supposed to be a Cheat Engine for Linux? Basic idea right?

yep

I want to release after implementation of AOB
im gonna post this in the Kongregate section and sticky it to see if we can't get someone with some "know-how" to notice it. I dont think this "programming" section is looked at enough.
it would be great to have a new hacking tool out there. Though honestly, i wasnt aware CE only worked on windows... does it not work on mac either?
you can't download ce on a mac so no it doesn't
I may have a look, but I'm about to decommision my Linux desktop (I'm replacing it with a sheevaplug + external HD to minimise power), so it won't be too in depth.

Holy Shits!!!

I have used scanmem since I started with Ubuntu a few years ago. A GUI for it, though, that's AWESOME!!!




Everything's coming up KongHack!

Feather Linux is a Linux distribution which runs completely off a CD or a USB pendrive and takes up under 128Mb of space. It is a Knoppix remaster (based on Debian), and tries to include software which most people would use every day on their desktop.

As scanmem (the original code behind GameConqueror) works on Unbuntu which is Debian based, it should work fine on Feather.

thanks, I got 'Feature Linux' by Google, but I was not sure if it was what he meant

So here's the dependences:
for scanmem:
/proc filesystem
libreadline

for GameConqueror
Python
PyGTK
I created a PPA for this. See update in the first article.

Please have a try, any feedback will be appreciated.
