The Cheat [Fixes]

Post by nil » Tue Nov 04, 2008 11:09 am

I decided to build up a new version of The Cheat which now runs on Leopard and on Intel machines without the need of running The Cheat as root, or turning off the kernel policy which allows any application to hack away.

This also contains a couple of crash fixes, the more important one being when performing multiple searches to narrow down results.

It will ask for an administrator password on every launch.

In this download, a sample cheat is included that changes everyone's walking speed on your own server in Halo Demo. This cheat modifies values at the same memory locations as sword's speed hack does. If you want to know how to use The Cheat, consult to its manual under the "Help" menu.

Download

Source code

[EDIT (july 12, 2009)]:
The original author of The Cheat noticed my build and posted it on his website. One small problem exists though. Recently, another user besides me contributed a build of The Cheat (1.2.2 unofficial), however, that build does not actually work correctly and is intel only. You may be alerted of a "new" update when launching my version of The Cheat. As a temporary solution to get rid of this notice, go to The Cheat's preferences -> update tab -> and uncheck "Check for new versions when The Cheat launches."

Like Seabees4 said, did you take the app out of the disc image >_<? If so, does it say "invalid password" or does it just quit after you enter in the password?

You are wonderful in 5,000 different ways. To the power of 900. Times 3,000,000. Plus 50. Make that 55.

Edit: You are absolutely horrible in 1 way. It won't accept my password.

Double edit: Nevermind. It accepts my password, and then immediately quits, and then when I open it again it still asks for the password again and then quits. No matter where I put it in my hard drive. You are horrible in 500+ ways.

Triple Edit: I extended ownership permissions to myself as well as everyone else possibly using my computer. Now when I enter my password, it automatically quits and then opens the cheat back up again immediately. You're now horrible in an infinite number of ways, or infinite until I restart my computer.

Perhaps you need the root password?

To destroy the confusion of the dmg thing, I just re-uploaded it as a zip (I thought I had a legitimate reason using dmg, but perhaps not...ah well)

That is actually suppose to happen and would be a sign of it working (as long as it didn't ask for password again when it relaunched). A sign of it not working is if it just quits on you after entering in the password and does not relaunch. If this happens, I suggest to try downloading it again. (May sound silly, but try it.)

Oh, and if it doesn't work for you, specify your operating system version (leopard or tiger) and type of computer (intel or powerpc) so I can see if it has any meaning.
