ok guys, ive taken the time to find the addresses of X, Y, Z using cheat engine:

• X Pos = 277FF9D4
• Y Pos = 277FF9D0
• Z Pos = 277FF9D8

Check your offset...

Tip: I never accessed the localplayer by the more or less static address, but I think PlayerPointer in DrakeFish's dump will do the job for you.

[rhilor]

PlayerPointer = 0xB366D0
X = 0x798,
Y = 0x79C,
Z = 0x7A0

that are the offsets.

Hey guys I am pretty new to memory edit, I have tried many times to find out the value to playerpos Can anyone help me please?

//Air0x

[namreeb]

What's really funny about the post above is that it would appear the answer is directly above his request.

[dididii]

Hi, I know how to find playerbase and some simple values, like account name and character name, but I have problem finding numbers, such as player hp and level. I don't know what you have to add to playerbase to get these values and I get an error on every ReadUInt (example: uint Level = wow.ReadUInt(wow.ReadUInt(playerbase + 0x + (0x35 * 4)); ). Adding those values doesn't return correct level - it just causes error. Also using addresses found on Cheat Engine cause error.
Is there some basic level guide somewhere about this? I know you all have been in the same situation at some point when you first started to do this stuff. I have tried to search for stuff but it has kinda failed.

[Ellesar1]

it would help if you would give some error message. just saying it didn't work won't give us a chance to give you hints.

[Kz0z]

@dididii Your example should be uint Level = wow.ReadUInt(wow.ReadUInt(playerbase + 0x + (0x36 * 4)); where the 0x36 value is from eUnitFields.UNIT_FIELD_LEVEL value given in http://www.mmowned.com/forums/world-...mp-thread.html Likewise, HP would be obtained by using the eUnitFields.UNIT_FIELD_HEALTH value (0x1, etc.
