In order to be able to carry out these manipulations, Cheat Engine reads the temporary files stored by games in the RAM and offers them to the user to change in a comfortable user interface.
More features of Cheat Engine
In addition to implementing cheats, Cheat Engine can also be used to find and fix bugs and glitches. To do this, the integrated debugger places breakpoints to check variables and change them if necessary.
The program also contains an assembler/disassembler and a tool for creating your own cheat patches. However, caution is advised when using the assembler/disassembler, as the game files can be damaged if used improperly.
There is also a speed hack integrated into Cheat Engine, which allows you to make games run slower or faster. There is also a trainer maker with which you can create trainers for other players so that they can easily cheat in their game. If you understand the Lua programming language, you can even create your own extensions for Cheat Engine.
