What would a cheat gold trigger look like ???

Post by SearingWolfe »

I suspected that someone put a cheat in this map, but it was protected so i worked the magic and unprotected it. i want to know how i would find the cheat gold trigger, or what it would look like.

you should upload your map here. Then you may get your answer fast.
note: you don't need to deprotect a map to look for the gold cheats.

yeah someone picked kirby in this map and he walks out to the middle and he's level one (obviously) but then he walks back to his base, comes back into the middle and he's level 16. i know that there's tomes in the center shop, but they cost 1250 gold each. anyway here is the map, its called Nintendo Footies. you have to deprotect it too

also, how do you find a gold cheat without deprotecting it to look inside

Open it up in MPQMaster, Extract war3map.j, Open in JASSCraft.

Umm, Since most cheats base off of a command (E.G. -ActivateAdmin), just CTRL + F for PlayerChat or PlayerChatEvent if you don't want to look at substrings, See what you find, Make sure to always look at the function that activates from the event, If you see something like "CustomDefeatBJ", It's for antihack.

EDIT: Went ahead and got your cheats for you;
Spoiler:
-WTF (Red ONLY)
* Resets Mana to 100% And resets Cooldowns

-omfgs010 ( Red / Blue ONLY)
*125% EXP

-dareandtinyrule (Red / Blue ONLY)
*Adds 1 hero level

-haveyoueverseentherain? (Red / Blue ONLY)
*Seems to give some kid of unit and 3 items, Subtracts 1400 gold.

Wouldn't it be more effective to search for SetPLayerState? That should find all triggered cheats, even unconventional ones, as long as the map isn't heavily obfuscated.

Since most 'cheat' triggers are done by 'TriggerRegisterPlayerChatEvent()', It's more wise to do that.

What if there was a command to add a secret item? Or spawn a certain unit, GetPlayerState() wouldn't find that.

But if you're looking for straight gold cheats, it's best to search for gold modification events directly

If you're looking for just any kind of cheats, then chat events would be the best way to start
