To cheat in SurroundedByBoys, you can manually attach Cheat Engine to the game&#8217;s executable and scan for changing numeric values like the specific Affection\/Favorability points of any of the 32 male classmates, or your daily allowance currency used for buying premium gifts. However, because game updates frequently break Cheat Engine tables (.CT files), the safest and easiest alternative is using an auto-updating mod manager like XMODhub, which provides 1-click cheats without requiring any memory scanning.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #12151a; border-left: 4px solid #00e5ff; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 0 8px 8px 0;\">\n<p style=\"color: #e5e7eb; margin: 0;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">[Editor&#8217;s Note]<\/strong> Look, I get it.

How to Use Cheat Engine for SurroundedByBoys (The Manual Way)<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">If you want to go the old-school route and find the memory addresses yourself, here is the basic &#8220;First Scan\/Next Scan&#8221; method tailored for this game.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Because <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/4673900\/SurroundedByBoys\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SurroundedByBoys<\/a> is a heavily story-driven RPG Visual Novel, the most common thing players want to manipulate is the Affection (Favorability) meter for specific male classmates. Unlike traditional action games where health is a clear number, Affection in this game can sometimes be tricky to isolate because it is often represented as a hidden numerical value behind a visual progress bar. Furthermore, managing your daily school life requires high personal stats (like Charm, Intelligence, or Stamina) and plenty of allowance money to trigger specific character events.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Here is the exact, highly detailed 5-step process to manually scan and edit a specific male classmate&#8217;s Affection points in SurroundedByBoys:<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Step 1: Attach to the Correct Executable and Set Your Value Type<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Launch SurroundedByBoys and load into your current school day save file. Once your character is actively in the game world, tab out and open Cheat Engine. Click the glowing PC icon in the top left corner to open the process list. Look for <code style=\"background-color: #1f2937; padding: 2px 6px; border-radius: 3px; color: #fbbf24;\">SurroundedByBoys.exe<\/code> (or the specific shipping executable if the game uses a launcher) and click &#8220;Open&#8221;. Before you scan, change the &#8220;Value Type&#8221; on the right side of the Cheat Engine window. While simple currency is often a &#8220;4 Bytes&#8221; integer, Affection points in Unity or Ren&#8217;Py-based visual novels are frequently stored as a &#8220;Float&#8221; (a decimal value, e.g., 15.5 points). If you aren&#8217;t sure, set the Value Type to &#8220;All&#8221; to cover both bases.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Step 2: Perform the Initial &#8220;Unknown Initial Value&#8221; Scan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Since SurroundedByBoys doesn&#8217;t explicitly tell you the exact numerical value of a classmate&#8217;s affection (it just shows a heart meter or a vague dialogue response), you cannot do an exact value scan. In Cheat Engine, change the &#8220;Scan Type&#8221; to &#8220;Unknown Initial Value&#8221;. Click &#8220;First Scan&#8221;. Cheat Engine will now index millions of memory addresses currently loaded in your RAM. This scan might take a few seconds and will result in a massive list of addresses on the left panel. Do not touch any of them yet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Step 3: Alter the In-Game State by Triggering an Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Return to SurroundedByBoys. You need to force the specific memory value you are tracking to change. Find the male classmate whose affection you want to edit. Interact with him and make a dialogue choice that you know will increase his favorability, or give him a gift from your inventory. Watch for the visual indicator that his affection has gone up (usually a sound effect, a blushing sprite, or a heart icon). As soon as this happens, immediately pause the game and tab back to Cheat Engine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Step 4: Filter the Results with &#8220;Increased Value&#8221; Scans<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Back in Cheat Engine, change the &#8220;Scan Type&#8221; from &#8220;Unknown Initial Value&#8221; to &#8220;Increased Value&#8221; (since the affection went up). Click &#8220;Next Scan&#8221; (DO NOT click First Scan, or you will lose your progress). The millions of addresses will instantly shrink down to a few thousand. Now, return to the game, walk around the school without interacting with that specific classmate, and tab back to Cheat Engine. Change the Scan Type to &#8220;Unchanged Value&#8221; and click &#8220;Next Scan&#8221;. Repeat this process\u2014giving gifts to increase the value, and doing unrelated tasks to keep it unchanged\u2014until you have narrowed the list down to 2 or 3 addresses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Step 5: Isolate, Freeze, and Modify the Address<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Once you have isolated the correct address, double-click it to drop it into the bottom active panel. Double-click the number under the &#8220;Value&#8221; column and change it to something massive, like 9999. To prevent the game from resetting the value during the next loading screen, click the empty box on the far left of the address to place a red &#8220;X&#8221; in it. This &#8220;freezes&#8221; the value, forcing the game to constantly read the max affection. Return to SurroundedByBoys, transition to a new classroom or trigger a dialogue, and you should instantly unlock that classmate&#8217;s specific storyline progression!<\/p>\n<div style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; background-color: #12151a; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\">In-Game Stat \/ Resource<\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\">Common CE Value Type<\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\">Memory Stability<\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\">Typical Use Case in SurroundedByBoys<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Allowance \/ Money<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">4 Bytes (Integer)<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">High<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Buying premium gifts, snacks, or event tickets.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Affection \/ Favorability<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Float or Double<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Low (Shifts often)<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Unlocking secret endings for the 32 male classmates.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Personal Stats (Charm\/Int)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">4 Bytes (Integer)<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Medium<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Passing daily school life skill checks and exams.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Gift Inventory Quantity<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">2 Bytes or 4 Bytes<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">High<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Duplicating rare gifts to spam to your favorite character.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Stamina \/ Stress Level<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Float<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Low<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Preventing the &#8220;Exhausted&#8221; bad ending during the school week.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"2-common-ce-errors-pointers-breaking-not-attaching\" style=\"color: #00e5ff; border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 40px; font-size: 24px;\">2. Common CE Errors: Pointers Breaking &amp; Not Attaching<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">If you are pulling your hair out because CE isn&#8217;t working for SurroundedByBoys, you aren&#8217;t alone. Modding a modern PC game is rarely as simple as a basic memory scan anymore. Here is what&#8217;s probably happening and why your game might be crashing to the desktop.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Error: &#8220;Cannot attach to process&#8221; \/ Game Crashes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">SurroundedByBoys might be using specific engine protections or memory obfuscation techniques. Modern indie games, especially those built on updated versions of Unity or Unreal Engine, often implement basic anti-tamper measures or memory integrity checks that detect when external software like Cheat Engine attempts to read or inject code into the executable. When Cheat Engine uses its standard Windows API debugging methods, the game engine detects the intrusion and immediately terminates the process, resulting in a hard crash. To bypass this, you need to configure Cheat Engine to use the VEH (Vectored Exception Handling) Debugger. Go to Cheat Engine&#8217;s settings, navigate to the &#8220;Debugger Options&#8221; tab, and switch the debugger method from &#8220;Windows Debugger&#8221; to &#8220;Use VEH Debugger&#8221;. This method hooks into the game&#8217;s exception handling routine rather than directly attaching a traditional debugger, making it significantly harder for SurroundedByBoys to detect the intrusion. Additionally, ensure you are running Cheat Engine as an Administrator, as standard user privileges are often insufficient to read the protected memory sectors where the game&#8217;s core logic resides.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">The Pointer Problem:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Perhaps the most infuriating experience for any manual cheater is the dreaded &#8220;Pointer Problem.&#8221; You spend 30 minutes carefully isolating the exact memory address for your daily allowance or a classmate&#8217;s affection. You change the value, buy your items, save your game, and go to sleep. The next day, you launch SurroundedByBoys, load your save, and your cheats are completely broken. The address you found now points to a random texture file or just displays &#8220;??&#8221;. This happens because of dynamic memory allocation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Modern game engines do not store variables in static, permanent locations on your RAM. Every time you transition through a loading screen, start a new school day, or reboot SurroundedByBoys, the engine&#8217;s garbage collector sweeps the memory and reassigns all variables to completely new, randomized addresses. To fix this manually, you have to perform complex &#8220;Pointer Scanning.&#8221; This involves finding the base address of the game&#8217;s executable and tracing the multi-level offsets (the logical path the game takes to find the variable) through assembly scripts. Writing custom ASM (Assembly) scripts to inject your own code and intercept these dynamic allocations requires a deep understanding of computer science and reverse engineering. For a casual indie RPG visual novel, spending hours writing assembly scripts just to get unlimited gift money is an exercise in pure frustration.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"3-the-better-alternative-1-click-cheats-with-xmodhub\" style=\"color: #00e5ff; border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 40px; font-size: 24px;\">3.

Where to Find Safe SurroundedByBoys Cheat Tables (.CT)?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">If you absolutely insist on using CE, you&#8217;ll want a pre-made Cheat Table (.CT file). However, you must navigate this space with extreme caution. The internet is flooded with shady forums, unmoderated Discord servers, and sketchy YouTube descriptions promising the &#8220;Ultimate SurroundedByBoys Cheat Table 2026 Working.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Downloading random .CT files is a massive cybersecurity risk. What many casual gamers do not realize is that Cheat Engine is not just a passive memory scanner; it features a fully functional, highly powerful Lua scripting engine. When you open a downloaded .CT file, you aren&#8217;t just loading a list of memory addresses. You are potentially executing arbitrary code directly onto your machine with administrative privileges. Malicious actors frequently exploit this by hiding sophisticated Lua scripts within seemingly innocent cheat tables. Once you click &#8220;Execute Script&#8221; or check the box to activate a cheat, the hidden payload deploys.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">These payloads can range from silent crypto-miners that hijack your GPU resources in the background, significantly degrading your PC&#8217;s performance and shortening its lifespan, to devastating info-stealing trojans. These trojans can scrape your browser cookies, steal your saved passwords, hijack your Steam and Discord session tokens, and even access your cryptocurrency wallets. Because Cheat Engine requires administrative rights to function and is often whitelisted by antivirus software to prevent false positives during legitimate memory scanning, these malicious scripts bypass your PC&#8217;s primary defenses completely undetected.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">This is exactly why relying on a verified, digitally signed application like XMODhub is the safe choice. XMODhub&#8217;s engineering team professionally develops, tests, and secures every single cheat module. You get all the power of advanced memory manipulation without risking your personal data, your hardware, or your Steam account to a random file found on an obscure modding forum.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"5-advanced-cheat-engine-tactics-manipulating-hidden-game-mechanics\" style=\"color: #00e5ff; border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 40px; font-size: 24px;\">5. Advanced Cheat Engine Tactics: Manipulating Hidden Game Mechanics<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">If you manage to track down a legitimate <code style=\"background-color: #1f2937; padding: 2px 6px; border-radius: 3px; color: #fbbf24;\">SurroundedByBoys cheat engine table<\/code> or decide to build your own from scratch, you will quickly realize that basic value freezing isn&#8217;t enough for the late-game content. Advanced cheat tables utilize custom Lua scripts and ASM (Assembly) injections to fundamentally alter how the game&#8217;s core logic functions, rather than just forcing a static number to stay high.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">For example, instead of manually scanning for the affection points of all 32 classmates individually (which would take hours), an advanced <code style=\"background-color: #1f2937; padding: 2px 6px; border-radius: 3px; color: #fbbf24;\">.CT<\/code> file might contain a &#8220;Global Affection Multiplier&#8221; script. This script intercepts the game&#8217;s code right when an affection-gaining event occurs and multiplies the incoming value by 10 or 100, saving you immense amounts of time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Here is a breakdown of the most sought-after script features you should look for in a comprehensive cheat table, and how they impact your gameplay:<\/p>\n<div style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; background-color: #12151a; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Cheat Script Category<\/strong><\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Specific Script \/ Node Function<\/strong><\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Optimal In-Game Use Case<\/strong><\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #00e5ff; color: #00e5ff;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Stability \/ Crash Risk<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Progression Modifiers<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Global Affection Multiplier (x10\/x50)<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Rapidly maxing out favorability for multiple male classmates without endless grinding.<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Medium<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Economy Hacks<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Infinite Daily Allowance Bypass<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Purchasing all premium gifts, snacks, and event tickets on day one.<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Low<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Stat Manipulation<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Instant Max Charm &amp; Intelligence<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Passing every brutal stat-check during mid-term school exams effortlessly.<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Low<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Time Management<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Freeze School Day Clock<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Triggering every single character interaction and event before the day ends.<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">High<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937;\">\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Inventory Control<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Force Item Drop \/ Gift Duplication<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">Stockpiling rare Platinum Promise Rings to secure secret confession endings.<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 15px; color: #e5e7eb;\">High<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"color: #ffffff; margin-top: 30px; font-size: 20px;\">How to Update a Broken .CT File After a Game Patch<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">When SurroundedByBoys receives a new content update on Steam, the memory offsets shift, immediately rendering your downloaded cheat table useless. To manually fix a broken table, you must right-click the broken script in Cheat Engine, select &#8220;Find out what accesses this address,&#8221; and trace the new assembly instructions. You then need to update the AOB (Array of Bytes) scan within the Lua script to match the new game version&#8217;s architecture. If reverse-engineering assembly code sounds like reading a foreign language, that is exactly why the auto-updating architecture of XMODhub is universally preferred by the modern modding community.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"6-frequently-asked-questions-faq\" style=\"color: #00e5ff; border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 40px; font-size: 24px;\">6.

Game Pass uses strict UWP (Universal Windows Platform) file encryption and restricted folder permissions that actively block Cheat Engine from attaching to the executable or reading the memory sectors. Attempting to force it often results in immediate access denial errors. However, XMODhub is specifically engineered to bypass these restrictions seamlessly, allowing you to cheat on Game Pass versions just as easily as Steam.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Q: Is it illegal to use Cheat Engine?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">A: Modifying data on your own PC for a single-player experience like SurroundedByBoys is completely legal. There are no laws against altering the code running locally on your machine for personal enjoyment. Just never bring memory editors into a multiplayer server, as that violates Terms of Service and will result in permanent account bans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong style=\"color: #fbbf24;\">Q: Will using Cheat Engine drop my FPS or slow down my PC?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">A: It depends heavily on how you use it. During a &#8220;First Scan&#8221; using the &#8220;Unknown Initial Value&#8221; method, Cheat Engine dumps gigabytes of your active RAM into a temporary file to index every single variable. This process heavily taxes your CPU and disk I\/O, which will cause massive FPS drops or temporary game freezes. Furthermore, if you write a poorly optimized Assembly script or use the &#8220;Active Freezing&#8221; feature (clicking the red &#8216;X&#8217; box) on hundreds of addresses simultaneously, Cheat Engine forces your CPU to rewrite those memory values every few milliseconds. This constant polling and writing cycle consumes significant CPU cycles, inevitably leading to stuttering, input lag, and lowered frame rates in SurroundedByBoys. XMODhub avoids this by using optimized memory hooks that only inject code when necessary, maintaining your game&#8217;s native performance.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion-work-smarter-not-harder\" style=\"color: #00e5ff; border-bottom: 1px solid #1f2937; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 40px; font-size: 24px;\">Conclusion: Work Smarter, Not Harder<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Learning how memory manipulation works in Cheat Engine is a cool flex. But let\u2019s be real\u2014when you come home from a long day at work or school, you just want to spawn in that legendary Platinum Promise Ring, max out your stats, and experience the hilarious and heartwarming storylines of SurroundedByBoys without taking a computer science class.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Why spend 45 minutes digging through hex codes, filtering float values, and fighting dynamic memory pointers when you can click one button and instantly get God Mode and infinite allowance?
