Using Structures and so on

[berlinermauer]

Hello Guys,

I wanted to use some player structres etc.

I found your amazing c-Codes which were no problem for me to translate it into Delphi, but:

How do I use them? I know that there are offsets for example
PlayerBase + 0x08 and i have the Health Address.

Now how do I get the Address of the PlayerBase?

Is there some more which I have to know, which is special in World of Warcrafts structures?

And what's the difference between enum and struct? enum contains the Offsets and struct the Variables or Types?

Hello berlinermauer,

this is how i get the Player Base from the Player Static and Offset Pointers:

public enum BasePointer
{
    PlayerStatic = 0x00CF8C50,
    PlayerOffsetA = 0x34,
    PlayerOffsetB = 0x24,
}

static BlackMagic Wow = new BlackMagic();

static public uint GetPlayerBase()
{
    uint PlayerBase1, PlayerBase2, PlayerBase3;
    PlayerBase1 = Wow.ReadUInt((uint)BasePointer.PlayerStatic);
    PlayerBase2 = Wow.ReadUInt(PlayerBase1 + (uint)BasePointer.PlayerOffsetA);
    PlayerBase3 = Wow.ReadUInt(PlayerBase2 + (uint)BasePointer.PlayerOffsetB);
    return PlayerBase3;
}

i got the Player Static and Offsets from here: Player - WoW.Dev Wiki

So what you have to do is:

1. Read Value from PlayerStatic. (0x00cf8c50)
2. Add to the read Value PlayerOffsetA. (0x34)
3. Read again from the calculated address.
4. Add to the read Value PlayerOffsetB. (0x24)
5. Read the Player Base from the calculated address.

For example:
When i executed this code Address 0x00cf8c50 contained the Value 0x49bb3970
It adds PlayerOffsetA and gets 0x49BB39A4.
It reads from 0x49BB39A4 and gets 0x1AE23FE0.
It adds PlayeroffsetB and gets 0x1AE24004.
It reads from 0x1AE24004 and gets 0x219DEE10 whitch is the current Player Base for me.

Note that the only address that doesn't change is the Player Static. Every other Address will change as soon as you restart the game or even if you log out and back in.

Ok thank you, your awesome!

How will I notice if some one logs out or in?

Do you've got any Idea without placing a button to my bot?

When the player pointer doesn't point good, then you are not logged in, also, you could scan using Cheat Engine to see something that would be 0 when logged out and 1 when ingame.

You can check it like DrakeFish said by reading 4 Bytes (uint) directly from your Base Pointer without any Offsets. If you are logged out you will read 0 otherwise you read a Value != 0.

Im not sure what this Value you will read stands for, but i guess it is a part of the Player ID as it is said on this Page: Character - WoW.Dev Wiki

Offset    Type    Description
0x00    int64    player ID - 8 bytes integer

Ok thanks you to.

Another Idea: Is it only the Player Static which is changed by a wow patch?

Or do they change their structs/records every patch?

And: Do you've got a Link to a working PlayerStructure? i only find a huge list about objects and some other things

btw: How does it work with scanning creatures (mobs etc)

Normally not, but they of course can.
If you are a C++-programmer, you can also order elements or add new elements in your classes, so I guess they also can, right...

Ever thought about clicking the search-button?
That has be covered one million times.
