DOSBox Cheat Engine vs ReClass.NET

DOSBox Cheat Engine is a single-page web application for scanning, editing, and freezing emulated memory in DOSBox Staging. Search for values, narrow the results, and add memory addresses to a Cheat Table; values in the table can be changed by double-clicking or frozen so they do not decrease. Live memory polling can be paused during CPU-heavy game segments. Cheat tables can be exported and loaded as JSON files, and Shift-click or Ctrl-click supports range selection. The application connects to DOSBox Staging through its Web Server API, which must be enabled in the emulator configuration. It requires DOSBox Staging 0.83 or newer; the API web server's default local address is http://127.0.0.1:8086. Precompiled executables are offered for Windows and Linux, and the Python source can be run directly using only the standard library, without a pip installation. The project is MIT licensed and free. Closing the browser tab sends a signal for the Python server to shut down gracefully.

ReClass.NET is a free .NET port of ReClass with additional features for examining process memory. It supports x86 and x64 and includes a memory viewer and scanner, automatic node dissection and highlighting for changed memory. Memory nodes can represent numeric values, text, vectors, matrices, virtual tables, functions and unions. For debugging, it displays PDB symbols and RTTI and includes a debugger to find what writes to or accesses an address. Users can start, stop or kill remote processes and filter the process selection dialog. The scanner can import files from Cheat Engine and CrySearch; project files from ReClass 2007–2016 and ReClass QT can also be imported. Plugins written in C++, C++/CLI or C# can add process-access methods, node information and custom nodes. The app generates C++ and C# code. The project lists Windows and Linux support, and says Linux support was tested on Ubuntu 18.04. It is released under the MIT License, free of charge and supplied without warranty.
