If this is in the wrong section, please help me move it, I thought this was the best place to put my post.
This is meant to be a simple info post about WPE!
Please don't flame! And yes I consider it an essay.
Let me just get this out of the way now. THIS IS NOT A GUIDE TO HACKING WOW! This is simply a post that is meant to be simple and easy to understand and that contains info that some people might find helpful in some strange way.
Who is this post for?
This post is for people who are starting WPE Pro or need Clarification about certain subjects I intend to cover.
This post is NOT for people who are:
Advanced users(unless you need a small refresher)
People who always feel the need to flame others. You are not wanted :P
People who know the difference of client-side and server-side information.

<.1.>I need tools for this? :confused: - What is WPE Pro?
WPE Pro is a packet editor. Packet editors capture and change values of packets,
which carry all the information that comes and goes from the internet(remember
www?) Modifying packets means modifying what the server thinks your doing or
possibly even looting, buying, and/or trading. Everything you do ingame gets sent
to your server in a packet, otherwise you would never be able to use your account
or set a virtual foot ingame. To packet edit is to hack and so if you don't want
or care to be banned by your server mods(if you are a mod or admin thats different
:P ) leave this post right now.
During this portion of the post you don't need to download ANYTHING(we have specail
downloads for you later) so please just hold on until the end of section one, which
is chapter eleven.
{.2.}I just want a hack. - Why & When do we use WPE?
We use WPE because other hacks just don't seem to cut it.
For example WEH(Wow Emu Hacker) can't use a gold hack, so we would use WPE to accomplish
that goal.
We would use WPE when we find somthing harder than we like it. We use WPE to even things
out. Like obstacle courses and duels. We also use it when we want a secret or unreachable
item ingame. There are times when WPE is not to be used on risk of BAN or CHARACTER LOCK.
These times will be elaborated in a later chapter.
<.3.>You mean I can't do that? - What can no longer be done with WPE.
As far as I know the following can no longer be done or can be done but a new way has not
been found yet:
*Purchasing one item as a different item. (ex: Buckler for Frostmourne)
{.4.}Share it or else! - Why share your finds? What is the best way to share?
You should almost always share what you find unless you feel it would be better unshared.
Only share finds you think you should, though it is encouraged that you always share it to
trusted people and players. Remember to not repost or reshare ANY find. Always look thorughly
for a hack before you post it or you could be banned(unless they didn't know it was a repost.)
Almost every hack you find has the possiblity to make it into a larger project like WPC. So
please share so you don't have to suffer at the wrath of others by not sharing. :P
<.5.>Be a real Rogue! - How to not get banned.
Always try your best to hide your hacks from admins and GMs/Mods. Remeber that if you let
them know that you can cheat on their server, then they go onto high alert and no hacker
gets to have fun.
{.6.}I don't see regular people text here... - What is Hex?
Hex stands for Hexidecimal or base 16. Hex is called base 16 because it only uses 0, 1, 2
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F. Hex is useful because it is small and compact,
enabling it to travel across the world wide web faster than other code. Sadly, our friend
hex has some very bad issues with security(I think he was robbed or somthing) and so he
lets us in every time we ask... if you have the key to the door(WPE Pro).
<.7.>Can they just let us win? - Why use Hex?
Like I just explained, Hex is small and so it is fast. It allows your messages in IRCs and
registration forms to go to the server and to other clients almost faster than it takes you
to snap your fingers with a good internet connection. Hex makes using the internet faster
and easier to do, yet it also allows us to break into the very foundations and break down
the walls that make us the clients(therefore making us the server).
{.8.}I can't read that!!! - Hex translation.
Yes, we know that you can't read that! It's in an encoded form right now, *cough* dunce *cough*.
To read code you either need a brain with the capasity to hold large tables of "code" or
you need a hex translator. For most normal people the translator will work. But if you think
that you can handle ALL the hex-code digits and what they mean, go ahead and be my guest.
Ascii Table - ASCII character codes and html, octal, hex and decimal chart conversion - Most codes(or maybe all of them) are there.
<.9.>You said hex though! - Encoded packets(SSL)
As far as I know only trinity core is going to SSL, which is encrypted or encoded packets.
If they succede we may have to deploy people into their code to work out what is what,
but for now lets stick to regular packets untill it is confirmed.
{.10.}WTF are these? - Cache files
You wow cache files are writen when you exit wow and contain each and every item and spell
(also npcs) that you see or come in contact with ingame. These can be edited carefuly with
hex-editors sometimes to allow for no colldown effects or other things, but that has been
mostly fixed.
<.11.>I can read that! - Not hex?
Thats right! That is Utf-8. Utf-8 stands for Unicode Transformation Format, which contains
most international text characters(a, b, c, 0, 2, 9, along with other languages). This is what
WoW/Blizzard uses, since it is an international game, to communicate between the server(them) and the client(you).
{.12.}WPE Pro
After all of that I think you're ready to attempt to use WPE. I will only provide a download
for the modified version because it's just so much better than the normal version.
(Thank you Devlina!)
DownLoad Link: http://filebeam.com/...847ff0909927457
<.13.>A GOOD Hex translator
If you have that table memorized you can skip this, but if you don't try to choose a good,
and easy hex-translator or else you won't be able to do much.
{.14.}Optionals
You can download these files if you want, but, I will not describe them or help you with them.
Cheat Engine: http://cheatengine.o...atEngine561.exe
The Cheat(MacOSX): http://www.versiontr...fo/macosx/20790
<.15.>Easy-Paste
Most people make a great show of typing in the entire peice of hex code in WPE filters when there
is a much easier way. When you want to paste a line of hex code into seprate boxes on a WPE filter
right-click the top of the box you want to start the code at and click paste.
(ex: click box 000 in advanced to start from there.)
{.16.}Viewing only THAT stuff
THAT Stuff is stuff that goes from you computer. To veiw only that, click view then click options.
Unclick anything with the word Recieve in it.
This can make the packet list much easier to read if you want to SEND data to the server only.
<.17.>Viewing only THIS stuff
THIS Stuff is stuff that comes from the server. To veiw only that, click view then click options.
Unclick anything with the word Send in it.
This can make the packet list much easier to read if you want to change data from the server only.
{.18.}Using 1.1 and 2.0 search
Using both types of search/logging lets you see both new and old version packets.
Sometimes the server might use 2.0 and not 1.1 or visa versa. To make life easier just record both.
<.19.>Benefits of limiting or expanding the packet-maximum
Limiting or expanding you packet-max can help you capture things in timeframes of seconds or minutes.
It could also let you take massive packet samples or get you disconnected.
{.20.}Modify ONLY that
THAT from chapter 16 is what the server gets from you, basically making it you gateway into it.
Using THAT only can help in times when you need to change spell, item, or npc values.
<.21.>Making a new packet because the old one was BS - No explanation :s
When you use advanced mode you have two options. The default option will rewrite the entire packet if
you tell it to. Be careful with what you do with this.
{.22.}Making a help post
When you make a help post be sure o give not only what you want, but what you think should be going on.
You should also give anything that might help, including any packet logs(with IPs hidden) you can manage.
If you can give possibly what you think would be involved with what you want(chat, shops, npcs, vote system)
you may get help sooner.
<.23.>Urgent help!
Right now I am getting a small meebo chatroom setup since I can't be online 24/7 for you. :P
Hopefully senior packet editors will choose to go to the chatroom to help you out sometime.
Otherwise put a post in on the forums, who's stopping you?
{.24.}What can you give to let us help you?
What can you give us? Packet logs? Char names? Mail IDs? The number in your head?
Give use what you think might be useful! We need details or we really can't help you.
<.25.>Requests
If you have a request, post it with as much detail(and grammar) as you possibly can!
If we have nothing you have nothing.
{.26.}Expand your range!
Remember that their sites are also potential goldmines for hacks. Don't limit yourself to WoW!
<.27.>Things you shouldn't share publicly
Don't share What hacks work on what server. - or the owner will patch it O.o
Don't share your char name.
Don't share your level.
Keep you IP secret from other hackers.
Don't share your account.
Don't share things you think you shouldn't share.
{.28.}Use whispers
When hacking, if you know someone ingame always try to hide hacking related chats you are having.
Keep anything hack related in your chats to whispers and prevent invisible GMs from getting the jump
on you.
