[Help Request] Find Cloud Objects in memory

[boomingranny]

Hi,

I am wanting to find the locations of nearby Gas Clouds,
i figured (incorrectly) that they would be in the object list, as a GameObject,
but i cannot find any gameobjects matching the name.

Any help or hints would be appreciated.

Cinder Cloud is the name of the wintergrasp fire clouds.

Dump everything and check manually. There's a chance that they are Units and not GameObjects (another example of this are the BG portals in dalaran, they are also unit's)

Clouds are not gameobjects, they are units.

                Dictionary<int, string> cloud_names = new Dictionary<int, string>();

                cloud_names.Add(17407, "Felmist");         // <Mote of Shadow> 
                cloud_names.Add(17378, "Swamp Gas");       // <Mote of Water> 
                cloud_names.Add(17408, "Arcane Vortex");   // <Mote of Mana> 
                cloud_names.Add(24222, "Windy Cloud");     // <Mote of Air> 
                cloud_names.Add(32544, "Steam Cloud");     // <Crystalized Fire> and <Crystalized Water> 
                cloud_names.Add(32522, "Cinder Cloud");    // <Crystalized Fire> 
                cloud_names.Add(24879, "Arctic Cloud");    // <Crystalized Air> and <Crystalized Water> 


                foreach (KeyValuePair<int, string> cloud in cloud_names)
                {
                    if (cloud.Key == targetObj.EntryId)
                    {
                        IsCloud = true;
                        break;
                    }
                }

There's another (simpler) way.
On the same structure that holds the pointer to the mob name, offset 0x10 holds the type of mob (Beast, Humanoid, Critter, etc). Mob type 13 is cloud.
Which means (as of 3.1.2) that if [[currobj + 0x968] + 0x10] == 13, the mob is a cloud.

Any clues on hostility? There's got to be a better way than how shynd did it Only askin because it seems like that struct has a lot of nice little values.
