Help/Support Hacking voids

CodeName9 · July 6, 2020

So i'm trying to add a new feature in my subway surfers modmenu,

and i found the method in dnspy, but its a public void with no arguments.

Here's a screenshot

This hack allows me to press a 'Music Button' in settings to give me 10,000 of coins/keys/tokens, its more like a debug setting.

so im guessing i would need it to be bool? but its not a bool argument.

I know this hack is possible as I've seen it before, but I've had little experience with voids,

but i cant get it to work so far with my attempts.

Also i'm trying to implement this into the ted2 mod menu if that means anything?

Learn about functions first. This should be handled like any other type, the only difference is their prototype and required arguments. You don't actually want to hack those, you want to call these functions. Read Guest's tutorials about Function Pointers etc. it'll serve you for this. If you only want to press the music button to do that you just need to patch and you have no use for a menu. The new assembly would be to branch to one of those functions on click. If you want to execute them all then do two BLs and make sure you branch to the link register at the end of each of the functions you BL to and then do a normal branch.

Thanks for the detailed reply, I was actually able to branch the functions and offsets and got the cheat to work when pressing the music button, of course I want to try to do multiple branches at a time, because; i put these into a modmenu as there’s a lot, but the thing is I can only enable one at a time, like I can’t do ... give 10k coins and give 10k gems ... at the same time so is it possible to branch multiple functions to the same offset (music button) and for them to both work at the same time? Also I’ll read into guest’s topic on function pointers, Thank you bR34Kr

Ah wait no I was wrong. Do a BL for two of the functions so it branches with a link to the function and then for the last call do a regular branch

Just so I’m thinking right, what exactly is a BL?

and thanks
