Download Cheat Engine

January 30 2011:the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002)
For those that are getting the above error download the Visual C++ 8 redistributable. It is used by the lua dll's that CE makes use of.

32-bit 64-bit


January 10 2011:Cheat Engine 6.0 Released:
It has taken a while but the wait has been worth it: Cheat engine 6.0 has been released
It's not only a new version with some new features, but a complete port from Delphi to Freepascal/Lazarus with support for 64-bit
Of course, some features could not get implemented in this new version just yet, like the directx mess and trainer creator, but they are planned to come back in the next versions. If you need to use them, just use Cheat Engine 5.6.1 instead(Check the download page if you need it). And other features have just been stripped because they where useless (hyperscan)
Of course, new stuff has been added like the VEHDebugger, improved pointerscan speed, ability to compare to the values of a saved scan, advanced scripting, etc...etc...etc...

If you encounter bugs or have suggestions, please do not hesitate to report them. If you don't I can't fix/improve Cheat Engine

January 5 2011:Shortcut to launch Cheat Engine missing:
In case you're noticing that when you start Cheat Engine you get a message that the shortcut isn't valid anymore and Cheat Engine.exe has been deleted from your system then you've become the victim of a really crappy anti virus program. (Really, any anti virus that deletes files without user permission is crap)
This is probably also the cause for the "Error Code 2" message during install

The solution to this problem is uninstall your anti virus(McAfee in particular) and reboot. Then reinstall Cheat Engine and everything should work fine(perhaps installing a different anti virus as well, as long as it isn't McAfee)

And if you feel like it please contact that anti virus vendor (e-mail and/or forum) and let them know they should stop deleting Cheat Engine.exe (Even if their forum already has more than 100 topics about it)

also, Cheat engine 6.0 will be out any day now


Juli 1 2010:Before I forget:
Because I'm getting flooded with e-mails of people that don't check the forum, if you're using firefox and want to use Cheat Engine on a browser game, then open plugin-container.exe instead of the firefox process. (That process will only exist when the game has already been started)


June 30 2010:10 year anniversary and 5.6.1 release
Well, it's been a decade now that the first version of Cheat engine saw the light
To celebrate that fact I've released ce 5.6.1 , which is mainly a bugfix version but also has some small usability improvements, I also wanted to put out a beta version of CE 6 today but since it has an annoying bug that makes the foundlist hard to use I'll spend some more time on that first.

link: Cheat Engine 5.6.1

Fixes:

Fixed bug where ce would crash(close) on XP systems on certain type of games when opening a process

Fixed the error at "Same as first scan" when using the float type

Pointer rescan for value now accepts more than 8 characters

Fixed pointerscan for value not supporting more than 1 thread

Fixed showing the fpu in the kernelmode debugger

Fixed Decreased/Increased by %

Dissect Data now detects non-exact floating point values again

Disabled executing the aobscan when assigning a script to the table

Some disassembler fixes

Again some more DPI fixes

The byte-editor in the hexeditor window is now properly aligned at the proper height

The XMM registers are now shown for kernelmode debugging as well

Implemented the stop button for kernelmode "Find what addresses this code accesses"

Fixed error message when pressing enter and no address is selected in the addresslist

Fixed samememory regions so the last byte is now included as well

Fixed the simple-copy/paste option in settings (it now has effect)

Fixed bug where pressing alt made a lot of controls invisible in vista and later

Fixed the pointerscan bug that caused out of memory problems for the scan (Was already secretly fixed and released for 5.6 one week after the official release, but still mentioning it)


Changes:

Rightclicking on registers(multiple locations) saves them to the clipboard

The values of dissect data can now be saved to disk

Auto Assembler script entries have a small
