Question Getting motion values from games

Hi guys

I tried to get some usable values for forces out of the game Vector 36.
The game is really cool and it would be so crazy to get some motion out of it
Unfortunately, the developer of this game wasn't very helpful, when I asked about some help.
I asked, if there is a way to show debugging values as ingame overlay or even better, to code an output in "outsim"-protocol style. He only wants to, if he finds an easy plugin for unity. I think he don't want to code his own.

So I looked myself to get the values from the game with "cheat engine".

The only pointer I got, is "speed" as there is a display in the ingame cockpit.

Does anyone know, if there is a tool to get the needed values "automatically"?
Or is there another clever method to get it?

Regards
Tom

Find a number you want and search for it in cheat engine. Then search more and more until you narrow it down to a few results. Then find out the base address for that location and do a pointer scan for that address and remember any +- any offset. Then when you have your result you need to restart the game shut down the PC restart lots and lots of times and rescan everytime until the pointer list has a few results. You then use these results and put them into a plugin, the guides are here in the FAQ how to do that and how to find pointers.

If its a Matrix you find need to do the calculations to create the values that we need for motion.

Sounds simple and it is........................................ not lol

p.s. Finding speed is a very simple scan finding matrx's and other values can be very tiresome especially when you have no idea what your looking for

Thanks for your answer.
And that's exactly the point, where I'm stuck...
I already have found the correct pointer for the speed, as this was easy to find...
But the other ones are really hard.

What do you think about this method?

What we can do, if there are NO displayed forces ?
This is the hardest way to find some movement. Therefore the cheat engine and Artmoney can search for unknown values (drop boxes) or changed values. You then can drive your car hard left and pause the game. Now the cheat engine make a virtual backup of the memory. Unpause the game and drive hard right. Pause again and the cheat engine will compare the memory to find the changes. You have to do this very often. The found values will get less with each search you do. It is very difficult, because you have to insure, that you really drive HARD left or right, because if the force is not really defined you loose your search result with one bad search. You can find longitudinal and lateral forces with this procedure, vertical forces are not really to get.

Yep thats kinda what you need to do depends what type of game

damn, this will be a lot of work

I have had a go getting the pointers in Vector36 I got what i wanted got the full 6DOF working but could not get a stable pointers at all for a rotation matrix and velocity. Good luck with trying to get them.

If you manage to get stable pointers let me know them and i will see what I can do but I wasted 3 hours trying

I totally forgot about that I'm just having a look at his work now see if I can understand it lol

Thanks, buddies.
I looked in to the concept of the plugin. Unfortunately, I'm not yet an Unity programmer.
Not yet

But I sent the link to the game developer. Maybe he's able to extend it.

woow looks like a grate game, send a mail to the guy that makes the plugins in the forum (i forgot his name)

?
