Console Text Capture

but so far I'm only reading what you're posting here. Good luck!

But you can, if you have CheatEngine and i guess you have the HD2SS server console
(dont have to run any server, just open it, then it will just display the line: "Type 'Help' for keywords list").
You could check if the address I found works.
Problem is that they might not work in other computer.
Finding the correct one can be difficult.
From pointer scan i found many addresses, I selected the ones that had less offsets, I got list of maybe 50 of them, then I restarted server console and most of them didnt hold the data anymore, restarted again and again and then i was left with only three of them that did work every time.
So you can try them all if you want.
"HD2DS_SabreSquadron.exe"+005E7EAC 30,0,8,0
"HD2DS_SabreSquadron.exe"+004EB998 0,30,8,0
"HD2DS_SabreSquadron.exe"+004EB998 8,78,8,0
(Last 4 numbers are offsets)

Okay. I'll get CheatEngine and report here hopefully these days. Too busy

Yes well... try to do it in year 2019 maybe.

Well, for the first and last address it gives me some numbers aka decimal
which I can convert into hex, but the message is not something like "ADMIN..."

Did you set it up somewhere to view as String(54)?

Maybe I'm doing everything wrong.

If it gives some value(other than ?? questionmarks) then i guess you have set it up correctly, but its just in wrong data type.
You can change it from dropdown box named: "Type", set it to be "String" then it will display this data as readable text.
Then Length box will appear and you can set the string size to something longer, 40 or 50 or whatever.
If you never selected it, then its probably set to 4Bytes, this is why it displays numbers.



Addresses in yellow box are different every time, no problem there.

"HD2DS_SabreSquadron.exe"+004EB998 0,30,8,0 This set doesnt work every time for me. so its not usable i guess.


I wonder if toadlife managed to read out something as well...

I somehow passed by that "Type" select yesteday
I'm happy I could help. So here you go
