Level up as you learn how to: Scan and modify memory with Cheat Engine; Explore program structure and execution flow with OllyDbg; Log processes and pinpoint useful data files with Process Monitor; Manipulate control flow through NOPing, hooking, and more Locate and dissect common game memory structures You'll even discover the secrets behind common game bots, including: Extrasensory perception hacks, such as wallhacks and heads-up displays Responsive hacks, such as auto healers and combo bots; Bots with artificial intelligence, such as cave walkers and automatic looters Game hacking might seem like black magic, but it doesn't have to be.
