If you get an "Access denied" Error change

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
execID = GetWindowID("World of Warcraft")
End Sub

to

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Process.EnterDebugMode()
execID = GetWindowID("World of Warcraft")
End Sub

Never Thought of that, but still, I may have a better fix-all to this problem coming as soon as I am done with my latest big update to WoW Auto Login Manager.

Ok, I got around to updating this tutorial, it should hopefully work well now. I havn't been able to test this as I do not know the new Static addresses for 2.4.3. Let me know how it works!

Thanks for fixing the access denied error but now another error has popped up.

[Gothian]

What is the address you are using? I have no real way to test so I can't sit through and debug.

One thing I would try do a break on that function, then check the input variable to see if it even has any data.

Well I tried "Label1.Text = HexToAsc("48454C4C4F", False)" and it didn't get any errors, perhaps I should put a bit more error checking into the function to check to see if it actually holds data.

EDIT:

huh.. I also tried this: "Label1.Text = HexToAsc("", False)" and did not get any errors. What version of the Visual Studio are you using? I am using VB.NET Express 2008 with SP1

[Skull]

Okay, I tried

Label1.Text = HexToAsc("48454C4C4F", False)

that worked.

The address im using is:

PLAYER_DODGE_PERCENTAGE=0x10EC,

(From the 2.4.3 address thread in wow memory editing)
Which would be

Private varAccount As Integer = &H10EC

I think? or am I doing it wrong
I am using Visual basic 2008 express

[Gothian]

when I read that, I am getting nothing but 0s, even with my memory tool:

Odd indeed, but that is probably why the null reference error, I will change up the guide a bit more to add some better error prevention.

Isnt this the Offset?


Try

Private varAccount As Integer = &HD43348

for the Character Name

[Skull]

0x00D43348 Character Name
0x00D43128 Account Name

These two worked in your memory tool (Gave correct Info)
But they won't work in the program for some reason. It still gives me the same error

I found out the problem, fixing the code now.

1814, you can remove the post above mine, also, when posting code, use the [code][/code] tags
