If you get an error during build, specifically something about Extension File Name, you need to uninstall Lazarus and install version 2.2.2 and build it with that version.
For those having an error of "ExtractFileNameWithoutExt", make sure to select the Lazarus 2.2.2 version instead, don't click the "Download Latest Version" as it will download the 3.2 version instead which causes the error
after i click build it went exactly like his but when i go to the bin forlder the cheat engine thing isnt there and i had cheat engine downloaded before but my computer messed up and i had to restore it and when i did a lot of my stuff wouldnt work properly cheat engine being one of them and i dont remember exactly how i did it before but when i downloaded cheat engine last time i didnt have to build it i just hit download but i cant get it off main site this time i keep getting this site cant provide a secure connection but i think thats how i did it last time
When I click run I keep getting a error saying Error: Identifier not found "ExtractFileNameWitoutExt". I tried reinstalling Cheat Engine but no matter what I do I keep getting the error.
@@mbloody991 I was able to get it to work after deleting all the errors in the text editor, I had to run and delete like 5 or 6 times, but after that I was able to find it in the bin file and install it
I can't thank you enough. Unless I come back here and rage, everything installed smooth. I don't have a lot of time for trivial stuff, so CE helps me along. I didn't want to get a virus (Trojon) from this damn program. I'd be happy to donate to them if they just asked and didn't have their garbage in the file. Norton didn't have a problem with it at all. Thanks again. GJ ***Update - Norton did find a "risk" file not long after I installed. Coupld have been nothing and the AV just flagged it to be removed. Just a heads up I guess
Before 7.3/7.2, I never had this much of a problem and kind of trusted what I read in the forums. It triggers my NORTON to not even allow for an install. YMMV. Take precautions, but otherwise ok "so far".
Thank you! I checked answers from different forums and it all leads to an error. I cleaned everything to start fresh, I used your links and followed the video, it worked the first time exactly as it was shown in the video. Thank you so much! It's just that, I didn't click on this video at first because the title and Image is too clickbait for me.
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing. BTW, about the black screen at 7:30, you may make it right by turning down the UAC level before recording the screen. 😀
thank you so much bro you are the only one to explain the 32 bit message, I was getting so mad whenever they didn't explain that issue, you have earned a sub my guy!
Thank you! Also heads up, if anyone gets an error while trying to run the .exe after compiling and it says that windows cannot find the file, rename it. For some reason the name of the files makes it glitch out otherwise
So easy and smooth ! Man, this was perfect, I just had 100% everything the same as you (although slower, so you probs have a fairly good processor I imagine, at least better than mine) and a very successful easy go ! Thank you very much for your time and effort putting this together.
Bro after I clicked on the button, as you've tested it, mine says that Debug Error..Failed to start process "C:\Users\MercifulBug\Documents\Cheat Engine\cheat-engine-7.5\Cheat Engine\bin\cheatengine-x86_64.exe". Error message: 740 'Failed to execute : 740". Please help me bro.
you explained it really well mate. no need for some questions and sht. on point. thank you very much really appreciate it. just for that ima sub and like
Hey, thanks for the tutorial. Just wondering if anyone else has an issue with the source code (zip) file. I definitely downloaded the right one but it doesn't wanna extract or open. I tried deleting and re-downloading as well.
that happened to me too,in my case, 7zip was able to extract it normally, just make sure you have 7zip downloaded, right click the zip file-> more options-> 7zip->open archive and it'll work.
When it got to the Release 64-Bit and Release 32-Bit, it stopped working for me. I don't know what really happened, but the CheatEngine file didn't start off as a zip either.
I'm always really skeptical of tech tutorials since every computer is different, but..damn. I was completely unable to download the installer due to firewalls i couldn't disable, and this worked like a charm. Time to go mess around with some game files.
God you're amazing, thank you so much. Couldn't even get past the install doing the regular method, even with all of my antivirus turned off. Thank you so much!!
O_O IT WORKS!! My Anti-virus didn't trigger too, while previously it went all-Trojan Virus alert, malware alert, etc when I attempted to install CE7.5 dl-ed from the main webpage. THANKS !!
thanks it worked edit: to specify so I don't seem like a bot, I just wanted Cheat Engine for single player Elden Ring. after 400 hours some things get tedious. everything worked fine so I'd trust this tutorial if you're still on the fence. especially since the creator said in a different comment you can delete lazarus after you're finished.
Man i spent my entire friday afternoon trying to compile this build of cheat engine coz i know this is the only way to get no viruses and boom. found your video and done in 9 minutes. amazing tutorial.
I literally can't install it anymore. I disable my antivirus, but it goes to 'not responding' on details in task manager after running it as administrator or normally. Windows 11, not sure what to do other than give up. Is there a way to FORCE it to install?
Thanks a lot man, you;re a God. I just loved it when you said "We dont have any errors...except that one". That's the most computer person thing you can say :D
when I open the Cheatengine file with the paw through Lazarus and get the Error "does not support target i386-win32, I click OK, but then instead of opening up like yours does mine comes up with "unable to read file" Error.... please help
The problem is, that the CE devs are really very smart people. I wouldn't be hundred percent sure if this simple enough method eliminates all the problems.. Hackers community is very clever, resourceful and crafty. CE is a piece of art, IMHO.
Ok uhhh if it says lazarus cant open cheatengine due to "blah blah blah not compliable with 32 bit" what do i do? did i just install the wrong version? i clicked install newest version. However i said to quarantine threats for cheat engine. Which one is the problem?
Thanks dude your tutorial has helped me followed everything and it works fine without no errors, so again thank you so much. Do need to have lazurus installed to make cheat engine work?
Seems to be different now, there is only the "Default" option listed when clicking on the gear and it doesn't work. Edit: You mentioned you 'fiddled with yours' - that means changes made you didn't list and could be the problem here.
Umm... I got warning when I downloaded the CE 7.5 file. It said something like "Win32Pua" and it scared me. Anyone know if its safe? I'm just a little bit scared :(
It just happened to me as well, not sure. I told my antivirus to delete it, but the cheat engine file stayed in my download folder soo, i will still try i guess?
@@Thevaleivan Hmmm... I deleted it manually after I clicked the "start actions" button. But the guy says you don't have to turn off your antivirus... Maybe it's because he has a different antivirus? I just don't want to accidentaly download a virus on my computer... What do you think I should do?
hi! when i try to download the cheat engine file, i cant download it because it says it includes a virus. Did that happen to anyone else and how did u fix it?
Thanks for this video. I just thought I would say that because the cheat engine does not infect your computer!!! Also the video is really easy to understand so like thank you.
i get an error message when trying to open a sctript in cheat engine saying that "luaclient-x64.dll is not present in cheat engine folder" it goes on to say "reinstall cheat engine" i cant figure out what to do here.
Every time I try to install Cheat engine it freezes up my PC. I have tried it on all three of my PCs and it does the same thing. It just brings up the loading icon in place of my mouse pointer and all I can do is bring up Task Manager and restart my system. Downloaded it from the source site though.
last time I tried building CE myself I ended up with a build that did not allow me to use speedhack and had to build that myself too through a lot of hoops (i think i even had to download a separate program). are you sure this doesnt create the same issue?
I had an issue compiling CE 7.5 with lazarus 3.0. For those who want the fix to that, downgrade lazarus to a previous version like 2.X and it should compile correctly.
I got no option to uncheck those 2 things and got no page to add a Lazarus shortcut on the desktop. When I double click I can't find Lazarus to open the cheat engine file with even after restarting the computer. I also moved the folder from c to program files
Great video. My old anti virus never complained about Cheat Engine, but my new one won't even let me download it. The problem is, I think the virus was installed prior to my new antivirus and it does not seem to be able to detect it. Anyone know how to remove the Cheat Engine virus once you have it?
Hey, when I press run it says “Fatal: Synax error, “BEGIN” excepted but “end of file” found” how do I fix this? Even restarting didn’t work (Edit) now it just says “Compilation raised exceptionally” and “Fatal: No memory left”
Honestly, the first ever tutorial video where everything went exactly as on the screen. Thanks for the job well done.
Same lmao. I cant believe it worked that perfectly.
I was getting warnings when I initially Extracted the files, but after running it through Lazarus, absolutely clean. Amazing Tutorial
If you get an error during build, specifically something about Extension File Name, you need to uninstall Lazarus and install version 2.2.2 and build it with that version.
This comment right here needs to be pinned. Thanks for the save!
That's what I had to do to get this to work. It didn't work with the latest version of Lazarus
thank you man
yep i clicked on the top link for the latest version and it didn't work. thank you
Ahh, great. So why doesn't the new version work?
For those having an error of "ExtractFileNameWithoutExt", make sure to select the Lazarus 2.2.2 version instead, don't click the "Download Latest Version" as it will download the 3.2 version instead which causes the error
I tested and it worked, thank you random internet man
