I gave this tool a try, and it failed me miserably. But I won't do a negative review if the developer is keen on changes because The Cheat does have potential.
I tried iHaxGamez which puts to shame The Cheat !
With iHaxGamez you search for the number in the left, wait for the game to change that number and then pause it and use iHaxGamez lower right search box to with the new number.
So easy that someone even made a video for it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRUs8_tZI4o
iHaxGamez - http://sourceforge.net/projects/ihaxgamez/
So if the developer really wants to make The Cheat worth using, I'd suggest following suit with iHaxGamez and allowing a search to compare the changes, otherwise people will be blindly changing numbers at addresses in memory or crashing their games.
The Cheat
Tool for cheating in computer games.
Version: 1.2.4
Good idea bad implementation - MacInTalk Pro
This poster clearly hasn't used The Cheat much. As noted in the directions for The Cheat, after the initial search, all future searches are on only those values that TC found the first time. If you want to start a new search, you click the "Clear Search" button and type in your new value.I've used both TC and the program this person recommends. They are both free, so it's worth having both in your arsenal, but TC is clearly the better choice.
TC has a more polished and mac-like UI. In addition you can freeze values when you find ones that work, and I've found that TC works with more games. TC also has a real icon. ;-)
The issue with TC is that it is rarely updated. This isn't the author's fault since he made the code free and told everyone he wouldn't be around for a while. Thankfully 1.2.3 works in Leopard, although it asks you to download 1.2.2 as an "update" which is a bit confusing.
