Not that Im blaming any of the "better programmers" (Infact Im glad they still want to help the newbies) but most of the tutorials here that are directed at beginners reduce to:
1) go into ida
2) type in a string you're looking for, say "GetMinimapZoneText"
3) find the address
4) read from it
and this is fine for some, but I feel its a bit gimmicky.
How did you know that you needed to search for the text, what else could you do to find it, how did people use to find it?
maybe if they went a bit more in-depth you could get rid of a large amount of script kids from the forum or at least discourage them from copying-pasting the code.
