Write Float to memory

Hello, so far ive been saving integer to memory like this:

Code:

RtlCopyMemory(           //routine copies the contents of a source memory block to a destination memory block.
			INT POINTER TO ADDRESS,				 //A pointer to the destination memory block to copy the bytes to.
		        INT POINTER WITH NUMBERS,            	 //A pointer to the source memory block to copy the bytes from.
			 sizeof(INT)   //The number of bytes to copy from the source to the destination.
			);

But today i tried to save float to the cheat engine tutorial( the 3rd test from the tutorial, the one that has health as float) and i cant get the float value to save correctly, i always get a -4,-2, etc. Ive tried it like this

Code:

RtlCopyMemory(           //routine copies the contents of a source memory block to a destination memory block.
			INT POINTER TO ADDRESS,				 //A pointer to the destination memory block to copy the bytes to.
		        FLOAT POINTER WITH NUMBERS,            	 //A pointer to the source memory block to copy the bytes from.
			 sizeof(FLOAT)   //The number of bytes to copy from the source to the destination.
			);

Im sending 98.888 as the float number

Why its not working with float but with int works just fine? From a programmer point of view aren't they doing the same thing, copy from a source to a destionation, but instead of int its using float

Your code is extremely messy and hard to understand.

Just define the function:

Code:

VOID RtlCopyMemory( _Out_ VOID UNALIGNED *Destination, _In_ const VOID UNALIGNED *Source, _In_ SIZE_T Length );

We can guess the parameters...

Anyways, try this:

Code:

float = 0.f; const int addr = 0xdeaddead; RtlCopyMemory( &f, PVOID( Address ), 4 );
