When attaching it's usually memory reading the process. which can take some time if you're on a 35T.
If you just wait it should solve itself (:
I cant even select a process, it doesnt open the process list.
it also states 'Could not get PID from name'

Is there anything in here that could tell me whats wrong ?
You can ignore that first "Could not get PID from name"
Can you make a video for me where you can't select the process / doesnt open process list?
yeah ofcourse, making video now :)
Maybe found a solution , i enabled process list to be shown in main menu in settings , then a 'process' tab appears in the menu bar up top.
To where is the memory map file dumped ?

Did this solve your issue?
Also the MMap is dumped to %temp%/mmap.txt

Unfortunately not, attaching to process still freezes everything up
can you put some debug prints here
https://github.com/Metick/CheatEngine-DMA/blob/Master/plugin/Hooks/process.cpp#L15
and in the function below it, and see what's happening for you?
Here is the output with debug statements , its in the attachment initializing.txt
And it just freezes after it finished reading through all the processes right?
Yes, it iterates through all processes and prints the message that you've reached the end and then cheat engine freezes without actually showing the process list.
Okay i managed to fix things a little bit by not opening the process list window but using the solution i mentioned before and using a revised main.c file, code for the revised main.c file can be found below for you to inspect. So now i am able to succesfully attach to a process by using the cheat engine setting under 'General Settings -> show main menu enabled -> show process list in main menu' and then selecting the process to attach to from there.

managed to complete resolve the issue by disabling icons for the process list window in general settings of cheat engine, closing this issue.
Whenever i try to open/attach to a process , Cheat Engine just freezes over and doesnt respond anymore. I have noticed that im getting the message VMMDLL_ConfigGet ID = 4 VERSION 0.0, should the version not be higher ? And is there any way of updating the version ?
