Ok so you want to code ..... or do you want to copy and paste and call it your own...


Firstly I want to say if you guys are interested in "developing" then I'm more than willing to share what I know. But if you just want us to write a step by step on how to make a game hack I suggest you take out a 50k loan and gotto school ... while your there take a Computer Science class or two

ALSO while were at my Firstly's still.... I just want everyone to know that I by NO MEANS consider myself a good coder/hacker. I am at a intermediate begginer / intermediate level.

Ok so there are a few things your gonna need to obtain in order to "develop" Game cheats.

Software:

Visual Studio C++ .NET 2003 (seems to be the one that everyone uses)
Direct3D SDK (also know as DirectX , D3D, DX9 ect...)
Half Life SDK (if your interested in Half life moding)
Cheat Engine (mostly for BF2)
OllyDBG (A debugger)
IDA PRo (This is a usful tool when SDK is not availble."Like with BF2"wink wink)
SoftICE (another reverse engineering tool)


Some "Starter" Software Kits:

D3D Starter Kit (Created by:Azorbix)
2142 Starter Kit (Not sure who the Creator is. Found it on Game-Deception.net)


You will need to Know and Understand:


C++ I suggest just sitting down and learning this b4 you start on anything eles.
This is the heart and soul to 90% of everything done coding wise with Game hacks.

ASM You need to have a good understanding of what ASM is and how to obtain what you need out of it.


Youll need to understand Functions and how there are used.


I have also put together a little .rar that has a few books to get you started. Included are C++ Books and a few others on Development.

Deluxe Development Books.rar

Ill try and think of some other things that I can put together to show you just how difficult software development really is. For those of you that are looking for some1 to just tell you step by step how to hook/inject/wrap/compile please do us all a favor and just READ b4 posting such threads.

The e-book link is giving me a 404 - repost

Other than that, is it C++ or VC++ that we need to know? I know quite a bit of C++ but when I look at CS hacks source, I get lost... And I think they use D3D anyway - good post on how to get them started though. I started C++ with a dummies book and it works quite well, but it gets too internet based after a while...

Yes sorry I hit submit b4 it was fully uploaded to my server... Should be good to go now....

Visual C++ is the Microsoft program that you use to Edit C++/C/C# and compile.

C++ is the Language.

And what you said about internet based this is true.. C++ for dummies gives you allot of references about certain topics. There are several C++ Beginners books. I have included 1 in my rar I believe. Just Start from the beginning and work your way through. Making notes of key terms as you go along!

Do we have to use the Microsoft VC++ program because it supports DX or can we use something more traditional, like Bloodshed?

Either way, I am interested in coding a game hack - something I have not done yet - I have made servers that run ASP, login pages, java (basic databases) and coding, mostly C++, some javascript, and I tried ASM (lol - hurt my brain)

WHOA THAT CHEAT ENGINE BLEW MY MIND I am downloading your rar file to read 1rst lol

Hack?

As long as its a valid c++ IDE, your good to go. Do remember though that some IDE's have diffferent syntax so code that might work in one IDE, might give you errors when complied with a different one. I perfer the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005...just my opinion though. As far what sumo was saying, you need to learn some ASM as well. It will come in handy when debugging the game as its all in assembly then. Then you can get some serious hacking done. I'm in the process right now of reversing the pbcl.dll and let me tell you, being able to know what is going on, makes it so much easier.

Cool - Alright, Since I have a really good understanding of C++ (I have known it for a while, not just learning it now) I should get into the ASM, since last time I tried it, it hurt my head...

Thanks for the post sumodeluxe ... it really helps those of programmers (even in real life) that want to help this community by coding.

Bloodshed C++ would work but there are some functions and library's that are not included, idk if vector math (vector.h) or that stuff is included either.... I know that some conversions will be need in some source codes and I'm pretty sure when you DL it it doesn't support d3d or OpenGL. I'm sure on there website they will have a updater to add the software development kits...


There are few real coders left in the community, like sumo said its mostly just copy pasting and editing of existing code. But I reccomend reading the whole books first and not starting with game or cheat programming, rater start with simple programming like shit...
