[Example Source][C#] Player info reader

[-Ryuk-]

Okay, well this is my first C# program!

I've tried to comment on everything within the source to make it as easy as possible for others to learn!

Basically it reads from the World of Warcraft memory.
It reads for:
* Your players name
* Your players level
* Your players coordinates (X/Y/Z)
* Your player health
* Your players mana

Known issues: (Current/Fixed)
* If your player doesn't have mana it crashes!

Download: Clicky!

Anti-Virus: Clicky!

Thanks to all from MMOwned for all the help, and I hope this helps others

Stop dividing by zero already.

Yes, It works for live wow servers(Patch 3.3.0)

Go on msdn and learn about exceptions. It's a quite simple concept that fixes most crashes.

Didn't load this Code, but it sounds that he divide MaxMana through CurMana or the other way round.
Exceptions are one of my favorites, i love them, but another way would be to check if MaxMana is equal zero.

At the end is to say, nice work even if it wasn't very hard.

P.S. My english isn't the best and i knew it.

Its an example for other using C# you can use it but you may need Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express Edition(what I use) Or wait for someone to compile it maybe.

a) It's straight forward 101 tutorial
b) You bothered to do it so +rep. The more of this the better the forums get for those trying to learn. I'm sick of digging through threads that turn up in search results that ask non stop about simple tasks, where this thread answers many of them in one hit.

I must admit that example source (or walkthroughs) were a great tool to learn reversing when I started (still early days for me anyway). Something like this back then would have saved me a lot of time reading pages of in depth information that had gaps with implied knowledge from other sources (posts, books etc). The information on mmowned is excellent, but having someone bring it together rocks. +rep for being bothered.

Thanks for posting it I was looking for something like this to start

I see you're checking for mana to be zero, and if it is, you assume we don't use it. However, you can also check for rage/runic power and rage. This way you can change the text of these labels to reflect these changes, and have it be more accurate.

Other than that, good work, keep it up!
