[masm32] YAWR (+src) - Yet another WoW radar

[KcDan]

Here is ths src and binary to the wow radar I made after studying docs and **** and poking around in wow.

Written in masm, project file == RadASM.


Credits go to you guys at MMOwned for your great dev sources.




Since I cant upload stuff (I guess since I'm still in 'leecher' status) heres a link to the zip

If there already is a radar out there called YAWR, sorry =P.

nice, i dont have MASM on this computer to take a look at the source tho, +rep lets try to get you out of leecher status

Thanks for the share.

Lol....

Looks good, checking it out now. +rep out of your gray place.

While I don't code in pure ASM (I'm not a masochist), props to you for making it work.

Has anyone figured out how to overlay the object list (radar) on the zone bitmaps? That would be orsome. I have been too lazy to figure out what coordinate system the object locations are using (is it just yards from 0,0,0?)

[KcDan]

Thats my next project, getting it to display the terrain. I have no clue what I'm diving into (well I have a clue just not a good one) so we'll find out =D.

I believe there is a map dbc file in the data files that has data about where all of the minimap blp files begin and their size in real-world, float coordinates. I cannot, for the life of me, remember the name of it, but a little bit of searching around these forums should turn it up (pretty sure I remember seeing it here).

[schlumpf]

The file with the minimaps is called md5translate.trs or something like that and is in the same folder as the .BLPs.

The files are then ordered by ADT-coodrinates like "Kalimdor_51_1.BLP". To get those coordinates to the ones you need:
mapname..format("%3.f",floor(32-(py/533.33))).."_"..format("%3.f",floor(32-(px/533.33)));

[KcDan]

Thanks for a starting point schlumpf, I'll take a look into it.

[peppiiii]

that seems awsome

[KcDan]

Jesus, for the scope of what I'm trying to do rendering the minimap tiles seems a little too much. I'll probably go an easier route, lulz..

[barthen]

Nice asm voodoo

[KcDan]

Some screenshots I took =)

[schlumpf]

Ooooooooooooooooold.

Hey, its new to me and I'm having fun =D.

Your tip was just what I needed.

I extracted all the .blps that Im going to be using (azeroth, kalimdor, northrend, and expansion01) converted them and compressed them so its all about 5mb.

Much easier than having to extract anything at runtime, or read mass amounts of data from wows process. Now all I gotta do is just load up the jpgs and raster at will.
