The Python programming language has been a solid choice for all the developers and enthusiasts looking for a way to write effective and simple, mostly external, cheats for video games.
Apart from the industry-standard usage of Python, which has been mostly machine learning, data analytics, and web development for the last couple of years, we have certainly seen a rise in Python usage in the hacking scene as well, and definitely for a good reason. Python definitely offers one of the best experiences when it comes to cheating in games, for multiple reasons.
First of all, in most cases, most free cheats written in Python—which you can find many of on our website—are simple text scripts, meaning that they are open-source and completely safe-to-use, as anyone can peek into the code and make sure it is safe-to-use. Moreover, because of Python's nature, many Python hacks you will find will also be external, meaning that they usually do not do any sort of dll injection memory writing, making them safe than many other internal ones out there.
How to Install Python
Installing Python is extremely easy as all you have to do simple navigate to their official site, Python.org, and download it. Downloading the latest version is usually recommended, unless the cheat you are using requires a specific version of Python, in which case you should download that from the website instead.
After downloading, run the installer and go through the installation. If you are installing one of the older versions, you may see an option to add Python to the PATH during the installation process. Make sure to tick that box and enable it as this will allow you to run Python from any directory via the terminal or CMD.
Now you are ready to run the script that you want to run, be it a cheat or any other Python script!
How to Run Python Scripts
- Now that you have Python installed, make sure you have downloaded the script you want to run as well
- Either run Terminal or CMD in the same directory as your script by right clicking in the Explorer, or navigate to the directory with the command "
cd path\to\your\directory\" - Once you are there, you will probably have to install the Python packages required for the cheat to run. You can do the following to install the packages via pip (package installer for Python, which comes bundled with your Python installation):
- If the script you downloaded also came with a file called "requirements.txt", you can simply run this command in the same directory as your script "
pip install -r requirements.txt". This file contains the name of the packages that are needed to be installed for the script - If there is no such file, open the Python script with the .py file extension using a text editor and look at the beginning of the file. You should see multiple lines that start with "
import". These lines import the packages that the script needs. These packages may not be installed for you yet, so you can usually install the packages you see there with the command "pip install packagename" for each package you see there. Though some packages are included in Python by itself, don't worry when you try to install already included Python packages,, such as "pip install os" which will give you an error because it already exists within Python
- If the script you downloaded also came with a file called "requirements.txt", you can simply run this command in the same directory as your script "
- Now you can run your script with the command "
python scriptfilename.py" (again, make sure you are in the same directory as the script) - While trying to run the script, if you see an error that says a package couldn't be found, it means that one of the necessary Python packages is missing and you need to install it. Again, you can do this with the command "
pip install packagename" - And that's it! Now you know how to use Python cheats and run Python scripts!
