Excited about Ark Survival Ascended too! DMA cheese would definitely give an edge. I've been searching as well. Maybe focusing on memory manipulation techniques initially could yield results? Remembering the early days of "Snow Rider" hacks - simpler times! Anyone with experience in game reversing willing to collaborate?

Hello,

I bought LeetDMA (https://enigma-x1.com/store/product/48-leetdma-v12-incl-11-emulated-firmware/ - retro bowl ).

I would like to purchase your cheat, but before buying, I tested lones-DMA-speed-test.

It crashes with this error:

My setup:

PC 2 (target): AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, Windows 11 laptop

Main PC (host): Windows 10

I have disabled IOMMU in the BIOS

I am unable to disable Kernel Isolation / Core Isolation in Windows 11

 

ChatGPT couldn’t help me solve it.

Interesting! It seems like a DTB/CR3 address issue. I've also had similar problems getting DMA cheats working. Ensure you're using the correct drivers and firmware versions for your LeetDMA. Maybe try an older Windows build on the target PC if disabling Kernel Isolation is impossible?
