• Disable checked Hidden
  Executing "Disable checked Hidden" will set the Valid of the checked Hidden sections to Disable, and update the settings written to the Hidden configuration file at the "path to PS4CheaterNeo\sections\[GAME_ID].conf" path. To revert, manual editing of the conf file is required, changing the Valid of the Hidden sections from False to True. Note: The Query window needs to Refresh Processes to incorporate the new Hidden conf settings.

• Added Filter CheckBox in the Min and Max Address fields of the Query window. (1.0.0)
• Whether selected or not, the search will be limited by the input Minimum and Maximum address range for query targets. If selected, it will also filter the SectionView content based on the input Minimum and Maximum address range.

Query window: SlowMotion and Pause

• game process can be pause or resume or SlowMotion in query window (0.9.5.2)
• Pause or resume requires Attach ps4 Debugging when using the original ps4debug payload
• After Attach ps4 Debugging, be sure to close query window before closing the game, otherwise the PS4 will crash.
• Performing SlowMotion will require Enter the SlowMotion pause and resume interval (in milliseconds, larger intervals will be slower, default 100 100)
• Using ctn123's ps4debug payload will use ProcessExt's pause and resume instead of Attach ps4 Debugging (0.9.6.5)

Query window: Undo scan and auto pause

• Support undo scan(revert to the previous scan result), need to enable EnableUndoScan in the options. (0.9.7.0)
• Support automatically pause the game when starting the scan in query, need to enable EnableScanAutoPause in the options. (0.9.7.0)
• Support automatically resume the game when the scan is complete in query, need to enable EnableScanDoneResume in the options. (0.9.7.0)
• Supports undo or redo to any scanned result position. (1.0.1.0)

Query window: format of scan range supports offset

• An offset can be used to enter the scan range in the Query window. (0.9.7.2)
• Range format (hex, "0x" can be omitted):
• Min: 12345678-1000 Max: 12345678+1000
• Min: 0x12345678-0x1000 Max: 0x12345678+0x1000

Query window: Dump Import PS4 section memory block

• You can perform Dump or Import of PS4 section memory block from the right-click menu in the SectionView of the Query window. (0.9.8.7)
• Note that this functionality is experimental; after importing dump files, the game is likely to be abnormal or encounter errors around 99% of the time.

Query window: Compare to first scan

• Added support for comparing to the first scan result in the Query window. (0.9.9.3)
• For scans performed after the initial scan, if the "Compare to first scan" checkbox is enabled, the current result values will be compared to the values from the first scan. (0.9.9.3)

Query window: Detect Hidden Section

• Added support for automatically detecting hidden sections.
  When the "DetectHiddenSection" option is enabled, SectionView will automatically force the display of sections that are hidden due to undefined addresses by the system. This feature is currently experimental. (0.9.9.7)
• Automatically detecting hidden sections is done by arranging the existing sections
  from the smallest Start address to the largest. If the memory addresses of two sections are not contiguous, a new section is automatically added to fill the addresses that are undefined by the system. This detection process is executed when the DetectHiddenSection option is enabled in the settings. (0.9.9.7)
• Changed the format of the LastHiddenSectionLengthHex option from int to ulong,
  so now this option is not limited by the int32 upper limit, and when initializing the last hidden section, it will be automatically processed in segments according to the buffer length (128MB). (0.9.9.8)
• Previously, when detecting hidden sections, there was no segmentation processing for each section.
  Now, each detected hidden section is segmented according to the buffer length (128M), following the standard section processing method. This helps reduce memory usage during Query scanning. (0.9.9.8)
• Added support for setting the starting address of HiddenSection as the end address of the previous section.
  avoiding starting addresses that do not end with an integer 0. You can enable/disable this by setting the HiddenSectionStartAtPreviousEnd option, which is enabled by default. (0.9.9.9)

• Added support for "SCAN for Hidden Sections" in the Query window.
  When executed, it will scan all Hidden Sections and verify the actual start and end addresses of sections in the PS4's memory that contain data. This scan will take a significant amount of time, at least one hour or more. (0.9.9.10)
  The relevant execution steps are as follows:
  1. Enable the "DetectHiddenSection" and "WriteHiddenSectionConf" options in the Options window.
  2. Open the Query window and wait for the Hidden Sections conf file to be generated. Verify if the "path to PS4CheaterNeo\sections\[GAME_ID].conf" file exists.
  3. Once the conf file is confirmed to exist, select the "SCAN for Hidden Sections" scan type and begin the scan, which will take at least one hour.
  4. After completing the scan, you can check if there have been any changes in the conf file's contents and the Prot of executable sections will automatically be set to 7.
  5. When opening a new Query window, it will automatically load the corresponding game ID's conf file and display Hidden Section addresses and whether they should be shown, based on the configuration.
  6. The conf file format is "SID, Start, End, Valid, Prot, Name" with each line recording a local Hidden Section. When "Valid" is false, it means that this section has no data.

Query window: Clone scan result

• Added a "Clone" button in the Query window, allowing the current scanning state and results to be duplicated into a new Query window. For example, after performing an "Unknown Initial" scan, you can copy the scan results into multiple new Query windows and then execute different scans. (1.0.1.5)

Pointer finder 🔼

• Make the base address of the pointer be in the executable section when FastScan is clicked.
• If there is no result, you can try to click NegativeOffset.
• The finder will skip the filtered section list when the filter checkbox is clicked.
• The preset section filter rules is libSce, libc.prx, SceShell, SceLib, SceNp, SceVoice, SceFios, libkernel, SceVdec, these rules can also be customized.
• Default maximum offset range (MaxRange) changed from 8192 to 0 (unlimited range) in PointerFinder. (0.9.7.1)
• Added support for PointerFinder auto sorting by Base Address field default, and also supports manual sorting. (0.9.8.2)
• PointerFinder now supports stable sorting, maintaining the relative order of the previous sorting during sorting. (0.9.9.8)

Section 🔼

• The memory address of the PS4 game is the start position of the specific section plus the relative offset value.
• The start position of sections is dynamic and will change every time you start the game or load the game save or just go through a scene in the game.
• This program will reload the sections when executes the lock or refresh the cheat codes to ensure that it is correct.

Section ID

• To process memory addresses, the program needs to use SectionID to obtain the corresponding Section.
  The original PS4_Cheater's rule for establishing SectionID is to sort Sections from low to high address, and obtain the count value as SectionsID.
  for example, if the SectionID is 100, the Section in the 100th position will be read.
  What is the problem? When the number of Sections is low, the order will not be wrong,
  but if the number of Sections is from one hundred to more than one thousand, it is easy to obtain the wrong Section,
  because the game is started at different times, the value of Section often changes.

• This program attempts to create a SectionID(abbreviated as SID below) that can correctly correspond to a Section at different times,

• SID v1 version encoding rules are as follows(rules established before 0.9.5.5-beta):

  1. The 1st code is idx used to count multiple Sections generated by the same MemoryEntry
  2. The 3rd to 6th code is sIdx will continue to count until the Prot value changes and will be reset
  3. The 7th to 8th code is ProtCnt will count when the Prot value changes
  4. The 9th code is the TypeCode when the Section has a name it is 1, otherwise it is 2

• SID v2 version encoding rules are as follows(rules established from 0.9.5.5-beta):

  1. The 1st code is idx used to count multiple Sections generated by the same MemoryEntry
  2. The 3rd to 5th code is sIdx will continue to count until the HighBits or TypeCode or Prot changes, it will be reset
  3. The 6th code is ProtCnt which counts when the Prot value changes and resets when the TypeCode changes
  4. The 7th code is the TypeCode when the Section has a name it is 1, otherwise it is 2
  5. The 8th to 10th code is HighBits which will be taken from the high-order bits of the address, such as AB12345678 => 171(AB)

• Saving will automatically update the SID value when loading cht cheat files from older versions.

• For example:

1. If the destination address we found is 3890012345, its Section is 3890000000, and the relative address is 12345
   The current Section table is as follows:

AddrStart　　Prot　count　　　SIDv1　　　　　SID
34E6200000　　3　　1076　　200006300　　522000600
34E7800000　　3　　1077　　200006400　　522000700
3890000000　　3　　1078　　200006500　　562000000 <-- Section of the destination address

2. Each Section does not exist every time, causing the total number of Sections to increase or decrease,
   suppose the next time you start the game, add Section 34EA200000, and its SID will change to the following
   use the "count or SIDv1" of the previous save and you will get the wrong Section

AddrStart　　Prot　count　　　SIDv1　　　　　SID
34E6200000　　3　　1076　　200006300　　522000600
34E7800000　　3　　1077　　200006400　　522000700
34EA200000　　3　　1078　　200006500　　522000800 <-- Suppose this Section is added when the game is started this time, using count or SIDv1 will get the wrong Section
3890000000　　3　　1079　　200006600　　562000000 <-- The actual Section of the destination address
3890200000　　3　　1080　　200006700　　562000100
