Stupid question, but how to create hacks

lordyo97, you DO know what a CPU is, right? And a hard-drive? and a bit of how the mainboard works, right? and a bit of how the memory works and how programs interact with software? and the drivers for the HARDWARE, right?

Those are the things I meant as hardware. Not how to remove an IHS and to lap a heatsink.

They do help to make you a better programmer. BUT, this is not coming from me, this is coming from a friend that actually knows to program in C++ and java and some other thingie I can't remember now. (L.E.-I think it's Oracle, I dunno) He said at some point you need to know how the computer works.

Me? I got no clue on HOW it would help you learn C++, because I don't know C++.

So... If you learned C++ with ZERO, nada, no hardware knowledge, congratulations! You are good. But if you're just expressing an outsider's point of view, sure, let's express opinions and chit-chat. I'm an outsider regarding C++ stuff.

its not important to know a program language if you wanna make a hack for a game,all you need to do is to use cheat engine or something like that,you must be able to search the address and the pointer,and then you can google some modules for writting memory or reading memory,you even dont need to know how does the modules work,you can just replace the address and pointers to let the hack run.but if you wanna be to real coder,you have to learn at least one program language to improve yourself.for some games' anticheat,you got to know some ASM.

I meant same thing when i said hardware as you did, i still dont see how it can help you?
i know abouth those things too, but they dont help you in anyway if you want to learn C++
IF you dont know ay program languages so far, better go learn some easier 1st, i learned C++ 2 years ago, i was 13 and a half then :D
and i will need it for school in 2 years :D

I'm 32, and never will learn C++. Too much time needed for it. Good for you on learning though, and congratz on going to college! I sure loved those times.
