I've started playing HW2 again and so I've decided to start hacking it (maybe this time I'll make a trainer) ...

I've managed to find out that actually 1RU = 1024 thus if you have 1000 RU you'd have to search for 1024000 (4 Byte search)
The trick is that after you burn some RU the value is stored in a float 955.931640625, but the game only displays 955. So when you try to do a filter search you do 955*1024 = 977920 and that's wrong because the actual value is 955.931640625*1024 = 978874.

So basically here's wot you do:

1)Start the game and get the RU value I'll take 1000 as a example.
2)1000*1024 = 1024000
3)In CE(CoSMOS.org) do a 4 byte search for 1024000
4)Go ingame and burn some RU
5)In CoSMOS do a "Changed value" search you should come up with 1 entry, if not continue using "Change value" or "Unchanged value" search.

I usually find it very easy as there are only a few entry's left even after the first search, freaze the value and your good to go ( unlike the trainers you well be the only one with Unl RU and the AI will be significantly weaker )

Thank you so much mate, got this from metaboli.co.uk so none of the trainers work on it (lost the original CD years ago!).

what would the Ru be if it was 10000?????
