Game Trainers Explained And Demystified For The Noobies

One of the biggest misconceptions is that game trainers are just malware. To be honest some are and some aren't, in fact some are even clean (when released) but end up infected later, simply just because the way they where packed and compiled.

Game trainers aren't soullessly made just for cheating, us more imaginative people use them for filming, getting more control over the game or its environment. Begs the question though.. how is it done?. Well most games (the EXE file) has what's known as a hook, memory address, an available intercept point (layman's terms? one man in a truck unloading boxes to a middle man on the floor, who in turn, passes it to the 3rd guy who puts it on the trolley) Legally you cant speak to the guy in the truck or the guy on the end. But as a sound card developer or direct x driver coder, you need access to solve customers problems playing that game on "your hardware"
This break point is an optional space on a conveyor belt of code where the ends are locked and legally cant be changed without permission.. that letterbox is open access.

Most game developers often close any open handles when securing the final EXE file with their digital signature. Yet most games also have to leave an open handle for a specific DLL file that allows the games Audio engine to be handled by various sound cards (yes go figure lol) Most of us understand that games use DirectX for visual communication between your graphics card and your version of windows, and some audio aspects are handled by Dx aswell. But many systems require a game to include this dll file Mss32.dll, a program/plug-in of sorts with no real user interface, so its only loaded as a plugin rather than a main program at the point you run the games shortcut and the exe hooks the dll (that helps windows communicate with the game & the sound card)
It's a big reason why a lot of GTA users who use the Fairlight release have no sound on any weapons or vehicles.

With this break point accessible, you can now look at common cheats that users type in on certain screens. GTA vice city for example (on the pc) you can type in betterthanwalking and the game will do what's technically known as spawn a vehicle (a golf car in this case) So what if you could just hold 1 key (to override game control keys, and give the Trainer access to Keyboard input commands instead of the game) and then press another key while the trainer is in control (and it tells the trainer to spawn a specific vehicle per key when its in control?)
Well you can once you find the break points and the hex value of what has to be typed & sent through the trainers hook into the memory, but hey.. this ain't a code lesson so lets skip the memory hacking and continue with this SAFETY and INFORMATIVE Legal Guide on Game Trainers.

Health and Ammunition is just a numbered factor, Health in operation flashpoint resistance for example can be as simple as 0 Your Ok.. 1 Your dead (its all zeros and ones in these regards)
Healthy being 0, so 0.99 would be 99% damage, 0.01 would = 1% damage
so 0.01 to 0.99 is alive, 1.0 AKA 1 is dead.
The irony of binary.. where nothing means your alive, having something means your dead or dying lol

It can be as simple as (the game you play) when you press F1 it opens your radio, or Inventory, yet when you hold say CTRL or the Right SHIFT and press F1 (the game is told to ignore your F1 by the trainer) because holding that CTRL told the trainer to send a fk you command to the game so the trainer could then replenish your ammo or life when you pressed F1 (rather than just opening your inventory) All games work differently between memory, game engine, code format but all can be manipulated in real time by a game trainer. At this point i hope you no at least understand they are real and do what their meant to yes? To which If you learnt something here you should leave me a comment or follow the blog as a thanks.

So.. check back, this specific post is a work in progress and will also help with testing and problem solving as well.. i am good at what i do ;)

Windows 8 Tips, Tricks, Advice And Warnings

Wow windows 8 and 8.1.. Ooooops says someone in a dark corner at microsoft. So what have we got here, well its a scary operating system, especially for those who despised windows xp's "network sharing and login basis in the home os" Windows 8 takes that one level further and begins its walk in the realms of iOS and Android... yes that's right.. windows 8 has a store.. no more are you offered out the box to just simply create a User name and password ON YOUR MACHINE...

You CAN create a "Local Account" if you stick in an email and the wrong password twice (don't click try again, just click create local account)

Here's some Advise (Before you even turn on that New PC or New LapTop)

Hit the net on a different system and create a brand new Hotmail OR Live mail account
On Its "Profile Information" what ever NAME (first and 2nd) will become Your Windows Log On Name AND the PATH to your Documents & Settings..
you may remember these paths on windows XP as simply
C:\Documents and Settings\Users\Your Windows User Name\.. Private Personal Stuff....

Using Your own personal Email to set up windows 8 will make that path your FULL NAME
Now this is something Websites can Read from your machine...
User Name, Operating System, Browser Type and other info like IP and what not...
So that is why i recommend a NEW hotmail or live account for setting it up.

For the noobs i shall go into more detail about why not to use your normal email or an email anyone has in their book.. and this may scare some of the not so noob'ish too. Once you log on, you get a folder on the top left of the desk top view, this folder is ALL the storage upon your email account, as you no on windows live you can store around 10gb of stuff, be it photos videos or even EXE files (anyone accesses your email and it happens to many) they can upload a file, that is something you will inadvertently access when opening your "My Documents" so you NEVER give anyone this email OR use it to mail ANYONE, you don't even add it to your other address books, you just use it to log onto the machine and nothing more (under login options you can log in with a pin) i think the log in with photo is the most pathetic thing ive ever seen so don't use that or even set that up.

Other really bad ideas (network wise) is the fact you can share these SUB Folders with anyone with a windows live account, so your my documents "with a little malware in your system" can make all your personal stuff public (windows gets updates for vulnerabilities ALL the time) Even more oddly you can Share other folders "right over the net like an FTP of sorts" using the hotmail.com live .com websites as an interface to access them folders. SO considering how vulnerable we became moving from windows 98 and Windows Millennium to Windows XP, this shift from XP, Vista or Win7 up to Win8 is a risky business unless your on a "hardware firewall" then it certainly isn't an operating system i would recommend, that said wont be long until you don't have a choice... hence this blog post to try and help.

Note, I don't recommend these 3rd party "Start Menus" because just like windows XP, certain updates like the shell32.dll or even implementations to the UAC system can stop you using your system. BUT what you can do is change the start menu you get with windows 8 to better suit what you need.

You can right click on the "Tiles Start Menu" and select open "location" you'll see your essentially inside the folder view of the classic start menus of yesteryear. Renaming and moving stuff around in their will change what's shown on the tiles menu, then you can also right click the tiles and re-size them. So you can organise the start menu "Old School" in the folder, just like always (remember though some are under "Your Login Name" and others are under the path of "All Users" just in case you get lost trying remove something that appears to be gone, yet shows up, easy mistake in this new environment. Windows 8 Internet Explorer comes with Flash built in, doesn't include java or shockwave.

What ever the OEM virus killer is, i advise you Don't even open that, and if it opens just hit close, go to control panel, programs and features, and Uninstall the virus killer (be it mcafee, norton, panda or what ever) once installed, reboot, go back into control panel and open "Windows Defender" Updated it, now you have a FREE virus killer.

To avoid confusion here, microsoft past and present had its own antimalware, antivirus and a duel package.

IE...
Windows XP = Microsoft Security Essentials <--this is virus killer & anti malware
Windows Vista = Windows Defender <--this is only anti malware

Windows 7 = Windows Defender <--this is virus killer & anti malware
Windows 8 = Windows Defender <--this is virus killer & anti malware

So the misconception that Windows Defender is not a virus killer is only true within Windows Vista and not the others :)

I WILL UPDATE THIS MORE WHEN I HAVE TIME
BUT I WANTED TO POST THIS NOW SO PEOPLE STOP ENDING UP WITH BAD MY DOCUMENTS PATHS AND WACKY WINDOWS USERS NAMES
