[C#] Read ObjectManagerBase failed?

**rhilor** · 06-10-2010

Here is the Code is use to get ObjectManagerBase

Code:

uint StaticClientConnection = wow.ReadUInt(0xBB43F0);
uint ObjectManagerOffset = wow.ReadUInt(0x2EB0);
uint ObjectManagerBase = wow.ReadUInt(wow.ReadUInt(StaticClientConnection) + ObjectManagerOffset);

Visual Studio C# says at the point ObjectManagerOffset "ReadUInt" failed, why?

Thanks.
best regards,

Because 0x2EB0 already is the ObjectManagerOffset oO
At address 0x2EB0 you will find all but something of WoW's main module, which preferably starts at 0x400000 iirc.
If you want to read this offset more or less dynamically, you have to start with getting the TLS. I would stick to your hardcoded offset.

Code:

uint ObjectManagerOffset = wow.ReadUInt(Addresses.ThreadLocalStorage + 0x1C);
uint ObjectManagerBase = wow.ReadUInt(Addresses.ClientConnection + objectManagerOffset);

Another way to get the ObjectManager is Kynox' way (http://www.mmowned.com/forums/world-...ct-dumper.html) + a lot PInvoke.
I prefer that because I hopefully will never have to update the offsets and because it's much faster than a pattern search for the TLS.
