I just got my usb gecko and I have read the tut and done mario galaxy but I need help finding health in other games like in mario your health is a number what about a game where you have a health bar I have tried searching then getting hit then searching again for lesser than value in 8, 16, 32 bit till I narrow it down then I poke the rest and get nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
hi the_dave
check out Foxx's awesome Wii ram hacking video a couple of times, this is a great video for the basics.

I was just about to ask this! Looks like you beat me to it, the_dave! :lol:
I have Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution and I was going to make an infinite health code, but I don't know how since there are Bars and not numbers... So I also am in need of help about this... :(
sorry if I posted in the wrong place. I have watched the video about ten times he does not cover non number items I put in smg and did it my self but I do not understand how to pin point a non number object. thank you for your replies
Well a health bar will still have a value attached to it in a variable somewhere in ram, however it is an unknown variable. so you will have to start a search as an unknown value. Then you need to make the bar go down, then search for a 'less than' value, then repeat and search for a 'less than' value again.
You should then be able to start pin pointing the variables address from your search results just as you would for number of lives etc.
WiiRD will spot values that have changed and lowered, but as its unknown searching its more time consuming and expect to be poking more results.
Thank You:clap
