asked on

changing value in RAM->program ->games

Hi,
I once had a little program which was able to change values in RAM memory for a certain process.
The main aim of the program was to adapt the values in really old games (e.g. commander keen1,...) to change your ammo,... since there aren't "cheatcodes" for such games.

I restarted to play keen 4, and am stuck, so I need this program again, but can't find it anymore.

Does anyone knows the name of such a program??

Thanks in advance.

Hey.

> "...in really old games..."
I'm guessing that you used to use this application on an old machine? If so, then have you bought a new machine since?

You may be wondering what this has to do with anything, well, with the modern, 32-bit machines, one of the features of it, is Protected Mode -- which prevents other programs from accessing/altering memory that's already allocated to another program.

So, unless you've got the same machine that you used to use for this, then I'm quite sure that you can no longer do it  :-(

thanks for your replie...
"same machine that you used to use for this"... It's still my "old" computer on which I used it before, so it should still work.
Okay.. In that case, I'll leave this to the others..

If you don't get some suggestions to software soon, then I think that you'd be best of having this question moved into the "Applications" TA (Thread Area) - or the Miscellaneous.

Best of luck,
