Help/Support Increasing Max Allowed Viewed Ads Using String Method

[CA3LE 316]

Hi all,

 

Using the string method  I came across 1 xref to the max view ads that dropped me to

 

 

The max views seem to load under R2 what I tried was taking the Hex value 

24 20 9F E5 01 10 8F E0

 

converted that to ARM & came up with 

ldr r2, [pc, #0x24]
add r1, pc, r1

 

I then replaced PC with R7, compiled and attempted to load the game. FAIL! Obliviously am going about it the wrong way. Anyone have any suggestions?  Or am I wasting time? Note, the game only allows 1 AD view per set time limit.

 

Thanks

You don't hack strings itself, you hack what sub_x functions are inside them.

See shmoo's strings hacking tutorial

Thanks I'll will look it over. Actually not trying to edit the string itself. The screenshot is the sub function of the string. I guess though by attempting to modify PC I did in effect attempt to mod the string

 

I'll will read the tutorial for sure.
