This is just a sample of what you would need to detect, But you would need a pretty optimized script and fast script to try and scan a process of assembly bytes and addresses to find a specific array of bytes.

This is a Code Injection Script used by CE Debugger Process name is also very un reliable as again CE Title will change when memory hacking and such.Ī reliable method of detecting CE is by detecting its Debugger, Try to detect when CE Attaches its Debugger to the process and also scanning for unknown libraries that CE Injects and uses.įor detecting CE I suggest you try to detect the Base Address of the CE Debugger, You can also try to detect certain assembly movements like here alloc(newmem,2048) Window Title is also Really not reliable as the CE Title changes a lot when memory hacking and other CE related stuff.

If your working on a project just to detect CE for say a function and your not focusing on stopping cheat engine then you could write up a script to detect the Process Name or PID, For EXE File Hash and EXE Full path those arn't reliable as they can easily change throughout your scripts history and for detecting process by icon file your also out of luck as you need to know the Process Name or PID to get the INFORMATION on the Process and RIP the Icon to read it and then match the image. If your planning to detect it for a Anti-Cheat then your out of luck with your mentioned methods as all said things are easily spoofable, If your beginning development on a Anti-Cheat I recommend detecting something like Code Injection or Hex Modifying. Anyway, if anyone else does have more experience running CE in Wine, I'm all ears.Most of what you say is external scanning, basically just scanning for certain aspects of Cheat Engine to detect it.
So it's seemingly not entirely predictable overall. I've also noted that CE's behavior otherwise isn't always 100% predictable - occasionally while testing this I'll start up CE but it'll not actually start properly, and sometimes rather than an outright crash it might freeze for a bit, leaving a non-updating window in its wake that I have to kill from the command line. One potential culprit which was brought up in IRC when I asked there was that I could potentially be running into weirdness related to address randomization, which might certainly go a long way to explaining the oddity of having it work totally fine for awhile yesterday - I'd be especially loath to turn that off, though. I'd tried it out briefly anyway and it didn't seem to make a difference. I've also read about the possibility of setting /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope to a lower security level, though I wouldn't be fond of that as a long-term solution. One thing that I do still have in place is that I've done a "setcap cap_sys_ptrace=eip wineserver" on the wineserver in question, which I've heard might be required in order to allow CE to peek into other processes' memory, so that's been set up for some time.
When CE crashes, the terminal where I've launched it gets a bunch of these:Ĭode: Select all wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x7fbe9c920008 at address 0x7bc80dab (thread 0168) So clearly it's at least partially working, maybe related somehow to executable size or something? Though I'm still mystified as to why it started working for awhile without warning yesterday. I did try attaching it to some other processes running inside the same WINEPREFIX (such as a running "winecfg" process) and that did work fine - CE attached properly and I was able to browse memory and the like. Rather than continuing to try launching the game constantly, I've taken to trying to attach CE to the EGS process itself, which is crashing CE in the same way, so at the moment I'm not even trying to attach to the game itself. I'd been launching CE with the same environment vars that the game was using, including WINEPREFIX, which presumably works fine because it sees the proper processes and even worked perfectly for awhile yesterday.

I then took a few hours' break to have dinner and run some other errands, though, and when I got back, it was back to the crashing behavior.įor some further details, the game itself was Borderlands 3 (via Epic Games Store), being run via a Protonified Wine install provided by Lutris. I'd been assuming that it just Wasn't Going To Work At All (and was prepared to admit defeat), but for some unknown-to-me reason yesterday, it started working without any obvious changes on my end, for a good hour or so, though multiple launches of the game in question. I've been attempting to use Cheat Engine 7.0 to assist in some modding (namely, to use DLL Injection to enable the ingame console for a game which doesn't otherwise allow it), but I've been having a fairly consistent crash when trying to attach it to the process in question.
