I've used these for years to fuck around/experiment with games I've played to excess (single player games with no ranking/etc/etc where my screwing around could give me any kind of advantage, to be clear), and had no problem getting it running/doing what I want..

Until recently... The only thing that changed was that my OS (Nobara, Fedora based) updated from 42 to 43, and now suddenly Cheat Engine (used via steamtinkerlaunch) and PINCE (Native linux cheat engine-alike) stopped working. Even on old games I successfully used them to screw around with in the past. Yes I select the proper process.

Memory View shows nothing but question marks, value searches that used to work fine don't return anything anymore. Like, it can see the process, but has no access to muck around in the memory itself.. Since it happened with an OS update, I can only assume that something changed in the backend thats interfering with these things running, but I'm not a Sysadmin/IT specialist, I'm just a random user, so I've tried to figure this out myself via internet searches and the like, but I've come up blank on everything I've tried.

Anyone else out there with a similar experience who could provide some aid on the issue?

Thank you for reading.

I don't blame you for thinking it was native, with how well it ran since launch day.

Well, well as in no proton related issues, game related issues is a whole nother matter, lol.

I think it was the first time I got a AAA gam day 1 and played it without having to wait for proton patches or Proton GE to make it usable.

    Nah, scanmem seems to work here on it. I can search for, find, and modify the value for "Resolve" during character creation using exact value searches. It doesn't print any errors about ranges of memory or anything, assuming that that was a relevant factor.

    shrugs

    Sorry; whatever you're running into isn't something that repros here. I hope that you can get it worked out, though.

    Mind if I ask what distro and version of it you're running?
