Does bytecode hacking work in-game? Because I don't care if you can modify the swf, only if you can modify in-game.

I'm not using _global. (broken image removed)

Basically you can use cheat engine (or equivalent) to modify the swf whilst it is running. (can't have a look at this now as my Windows box's disk has died!)

Like making perfect copy-protection, you cannot make perfect anti-cheat code. You can only put protections in to make it harder to cheat than it is to play the game properly.

*Yawn* Someone's prolly done it already, but I'm gonna tear the .swf apart.

Change _root.each to 120 and freeze it.

That's good for ragnarok, what would you find in cheat engine?

_level0/:each

So, what exactly is this "_root.each" hack? I'm pretty clueless oh hacking, lol.

Code: [Select]

label17:
push 1000, 1, c:6, c:2, c:1, X_PROPERTY
That's the score I believe,

Its not the score, but it does control the incremental value. You can change it with.

96 15 00 07 e8 03 00 00 -> 96 15 00 07 01 00 00 00

Then it only goes up by 1 instead of 1000. However this isn't what the author is looking for. With a real hack you should be able to change the number to whatever you want at any time. The SWF is obscured to hell, so it is hard to figure out what is going on. Zarg would probably have better luck with this since he is so experienced dealing with obscured code.

Code: [Select]

if(_root.each >= 120){
_root.score += 1000;
}

What in the world did you use to get that code? Sothink and flasm are not doing so great. Has some encryption program been used on the game since its first release, and you're looking at clean code?

I made that to illustrate what happens when "_root.each" is equal to or greater than 120. I didn't find it anywhere, and the score variable isn't "_root.score" (broken image removed)
