Obtaining WoW Events without unlocker

[ring3]

like the title says would it be possible to get the wow events without unlocking lua just my using internal hooking n stuff?

Hello,

There's no need to unlock Lua, you can simply hook a function to capture all events.
Which version of WoW are you using?

For WotLK 3.3.5a, you can hook the function at address 0x81AA00 and iterate over the Lua stack to retrieve the event name and its arguments. The first argument is a pointer to the Lua event structure.

Hello,

thanks your answer.
Have you hooked that function with version 3.3.5a? I would try it for retail or classic

3.3.5a is a terrible reference for current live/classic game. You cannot patch the text section in current binaries. Well, you can but not easily. You'll need to find another way to catch all the events.

thanks, so it would make more sense to just do an lua unlocker or do you have any hints?

I can patch .text area for hooks and patches. It was very easy

simply by patching the physmem and create a new MDL to bypass protection, i do that too and working fine

Reverse engineer around the lua event pushers like "UNIT_HEALTH" and you'll see.

Thanks for your hint that helped me a lot
so i got my events working but somehow events like SPELL_AURA_APPLIED are not in there and in IDA i cannot find any hints where they could be.
does someone know where they are stored?
