[Question] Trying to find object names

[kingviper]

Hey so I'm working on a basic fisher bot piece. Now I am trying to find the bobber with this:

string ObjGUIDName = wow.ReadASCIIString((uint)wow.ReadUInt64(wow.ReadUInt(CurrentObjectPtr + 0x + 0x254),250);

I am not sure what I am doing wrong but I get just a bunch of random characters. Any pointers in the right direction would be great.

thanks

I'm use this construction for read wowobject name:

VFT_GetObjectName = 57;
uint codecave = MyObjectManager.Memory.AllocateMemory();
//MyObjectManager.SuspendMainThread();
uint VMT = MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadUInt((uint)ObjectPointer);

MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.Clear();
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("fs mov eax, [0x2C]");
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("mov eax, [eax]");
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("add eax, 10");
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("mov dword [eax], {0}", MyObjectManager.CurrentMgr);
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("mov ecx, {0}", ObjectPointer);
//read pointer to GetName method
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("call {0}",
MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadUInt(VMT + (WoWOffsets.Instance.VFT_GetObjectName * 4)));
MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.AddLine("retn");
uint pCurName = MyObjectManager.Memory.Asm.InjectAndExecute(codecave);

if (pCurName != uint.MaxValue)
name = Encode(MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadASCIIString(pCurName, 100));

But after last patch it not working Maybe someone know another way to read wow object name?

Oh that's different, haven't seen it done like that before. Thanks for the snippet though. If I find anything i'll post it here for you as well.

You can to try this code:

public uint
ObjectNamePtr = 0x1B8,
ObjectNameOffs = 0xB4,
UnitNamePtr = 0x968,
UnitNameOffs = 0x64;

try
{
if (this.Type == eObjectType.GameObject || this.Type == eObjectType.Item)
{
uint name1 = MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadUInt((uint)ObjectPointer + WoWOffsets.Instance.ObjectNamePtr);
uint name2 = MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadUInt(name1 + WoWOffsets.Instance.ObjectNameOffs);
resname = Encode(MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadASCIIString(name2, 100));
}
else if (this.Type == eObjectType.Unit)
{
uint name1 = MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadUInt((uint)ObjectPointer + WoWOffsets.Instance.UnitNamePtr);
uint name2 = MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadUInt(name1 + WoWOffsets.Instance.UnitNameOffs);
resname = Encode(MyObjectManager.Memory.ReadASCIIString(name2, 100));
}
}
catch { }
return resname;

It working with last patch, but not for items

You should post this in memory editing section + you will find all the codes there.
Sry for offtopic :P

Wow that's great, I have been trying to find the offset for the object name for a while with no luck. Also has the type separator there too. Now just to find the offsets.

I wasn't sure if it should go in there because I thought I saw a no question here below the title. So I just posted in the question section of the memory editing sub forum. Thanks though!
