Many players believe Darksiders 3 stopped receiving updates years ago. This is mostly true, but Steam and GoG occasionally push small, invisible updates—usually related to deprecated API calls, cloud save structures, or DRM handshakes with Windows 11. Even a minor 15MB patch can alter the game’s memory heap, which breaks the trainer’s ability to scan for health values.
If you refuse to downgrade or use Wemod, you can “un-patch” the trainer yourself using a HEX editor like HxD.
The short answer: Yes, but only with version 1.0 of the game.
Here is the definitive guide to making the “patched” trainer work again. darksiders 3 trainer fling patched
This works flawlessly on trash mobs and mini-bosses. For story bosses (Envy, Lust, Pride), the trainer intelligently delays the one-hit kill until the boss’s second phase, preventing cutscene soft-locks. This is a brilliant patch-specific addition.
Originally buggy (would send Fury through the floor in Nether areas), the patched Super Jump has been stabilized. You can now:

For months, it worked flawlessly. So, what changed?
Most early trainers for Darksiders III broke after Gunfire Games pushed out patches that revamped enemy AI, fixed memory leaks, and adjusted "Classic Mode." This patched version is rebuilt from the ground up to work with:
Crucially, the patched trainer’s toggles no longer desync during cutscenes or boss phase transitions—a flaw that plagued earlier cheat tables. The short answer: Yes, but only with version 1
Fling trainers work by locating specific memory addresses (e.g., Darksiders3.exe+2F4A1B). Patch 1.11 introduced dynamic memory allocation for critical player stats. Even if you ran the same version of the game, the health pool would shift slightly each time you loaded a save.
The original Fling trainer was hardcoded for pre-1.11 executables. When the address space changed, the trainer’s injections started writing to empty or garbage memory locations, resulting in:
This is what the community began calling “the patched status.” Fling himself moved on to other titles (Remnant: From the Ashes, Darksiders Genesis), and the DS3 trainer was left in a legacy state.
