EasyEdit

 

This library makes it easy to hook into the San Andreas process and manipulate it's memory values using the C# programming language (any .NET language should be ok though). It has various read/write functions along with a few other helpfull ones such as capturing key presses or editing files, they are all explained using intellisense and are pretty straight forward.

 

The zip contains a readme, the xml file with the explinations for the functions and the EasyEdit library itself, the readme explains how to use the library but I've also provided an example below.

Example

 

An example console application which changes the players money value when pressing the keys or stops San Andreas:

 

 

using System;                   using System.Threading;         using System.Windows.Forms;     using EasyEdit;namespace z{   class Program   {       static void Main(string[] args)       {           Easy ee = new Easy();           int money = Easy.ADDRESS_PLAYER_MONEY;           while (true)           {               if (ee.GetPlayerPointer() != 0)               {                   if (ee.IsKeyPressed(Keys.F5)) ee.WriteInt(money, 55555);                   else if (ee.IsKeyPressed(Keys.F6)) ee.WriteInt(money, 1);                   else if (ee.IsKeyPressed(Keys.F7))                   {                       if (ee.StopSanAndreas())                       {                           Thread.Sleep(6000);                           break;                       }                   }               }               Thread.Sleep(1000);           }                   }   }}

 

 

The above is a standard console appliation I made in Microsoft Visual C# 2010 Express, the references were like so:

Please feel free to leave a comment, report any issues you come across, give feedback or suggest a feature etc.

 

Enjoy.

 

Edit:

 

@Mods and anyone wondering:

 

I've attempted to block EasyEdit while in multiplayer, I don't support cheating incase you wonder, this is aimed at singleplayer.

This looks really interesting.

 

I recommend you to upload this to GTAGarage.com, under Tools section. That link will never expire, and you can check how many downloads it has. Its also a rule in this forum.

 

And for better feedback this could be moved to Tools section or III Coding in III Era Modding.

I've just uploaded it to GTAGarage under the tools section (didn't know that rule, my bad), was a good idea that for sure. I didn't know where to upload it here so I chose coding as it's used for that but I agree tools would of been a choice also.

 

Thanks for your input.

I'll certainly play around with this, great work.

Thanks.

 

@All:

 

I've just had a thought about my title, it's a little misleading as the dll should be useable in any .NET language as it's written in one but I've only tested it with C#.

[uNi]

I've just approved it at GTAGarage so is available there now.

[Donny78]

Thanks for that dude, I apreciate it.

[Donny78]

Bump.

 

It's version 1.2 now, I added the changes in the first post but this version without internal stuff is really just the constants, access them by using "Easy.ADDRESS*******".

 

Again any features or addresses you would like to have just let me know and I'll do my best to add them.

 

Edit:

 

Now version 1.3, changes are listed again in the first post.
