is it usable for window 7 64?

If you open 32-bit processes.

Hey L.,
If I make my own ultra-simple console version of a memory hacker (just searching and changing values).
What would I have to change in the compile options / what would I have to take care of in the program to make it able to hack x64 processes ??
Is there some compiler switch?
Do I have to use other Windows APIs ?

Write a 64-bit application.
I believe I have seen 64-bit functions for traversing the process list but for some reason I cannot find them right now.

So simply recompiling a software as 64bit would allow it to open 64bit processes?
Could you make a second compile of MHS in 64bit mode?
It wouldn't take that much time if the only thing to do is setting the compiler flag to 64bit...

I didn’t say that. Making a 64-bit application also requires 64-bit coding practices, which MHS does not have.
And since MHS is based around the very thing that changes on 64-bit platforms (memory), non-64-bit coding practices ruin any chance of MHS to be 64-bit native without a complete rewrite.

One example is using DWORD for addresses instead of UINT_PTR, which is discussed in the Knowledge Base. MHS does not do this; it uses 64-bit addresses even for 32-bit processes simply to be compatible, but there are plenty of other things does not do correctly. Mistakes that will be fixed in the rewrite.

Ah ok, thanks for clearing that!
By the way: Is there something like a MHS2 (rewrite) wish-list? :lol:

There is no harm in one.
