[Code Release] C#, Out Of Process - Get Player Name

[SwInY]

ok guys,
this WASNT made by me, and i give full credits to who ever did.
i just changed it so i could use it ALOT easyer, instead of all the other stuff.
it just uses GUID.

// Function Taken and modified from
// NoMorePasting.com
// Thanks to who ever made it

basicly this gets PlayerName from GUID.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using ConsoleDruidHeals.Managers;

namespace ConsoleDruidHeals.WoWFunctions
{

    internal enum UnitName : uint
    {
        PlayerNameCachePointer = 0xC9ACC0 + 0x08,
        PlayerNameMaskOffset = 0x024,
        PlayerNameBaseOffset = 0x01c,
        PlayerNameStringOffset = 0x020
    }


    public static class PlayerNames
    {

        // Function Taken and modified from
        // http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=17694
        // Thanks to who ever made it

        public static string GetPlayerName(ulong GUID)
        {
            uint var1 = ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt((uint)UnitName.PlayerNameCachePointer + (uint)UnitName.PlayerNameMaskOffset);

            //here we're getting the pointer to the start of the linked list
            uint var2 = ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt((uint)UnitName.PlayerNameCachePointer + (uint)UnitName.PlayerNameBaseOffset);
            var1 &= (uint)GUID;
            var1 += var1 * 2;
            var1 = (var2 + (var1 * 4) + 4);
            var1 = ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt((var1 + 4));

            //iterate through the linked list until the current entry has
            //the same GUID as the object whose name we want
            while (ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt(var1) != (uint)GUID)
            {
                uint var3 = ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt((uint)UnitName.PlayerNameCachePointer + (uint)UnitName.PlayerNameBaseOffset);
                var2 = (uint)GUID;
                var2 &= ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt((uint)UnitName.PlayerNameCachePointer + (uint)UnitName.PlayerNameMaskOffset);
                var2 += var2 * 2;
                var2 = ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt(var3 + (var2 * 4));
                var2 += var1;
                var1 = ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadUInt(var2 + 4);
            }

            //now that we have the correct entry in the linked list,
            //read its name from entry+0x20
            return ProcessManager.WoWProcess.ReadASCIIString(var1 + (uint)UnitName.PlayerNameStringOffset, 40);
        }

    }
}

Good！
I have a question:
How to get these constants?
internal enum UnitName: uint
{
PlayerNameCachePointer = 0xC9ACC0 + 0x08,
PlayerNameMaskOffset = 0x024,
PlayerNameBaseOffset = 0x01c,
PlayerNameStringOffset = 0x020
}

Read up on memory stuff.
When you know that you are searching for offsets, continue by learning basic reverse engineering.
Or be able to silently search in the info dump thread for updated "constants".

player name as in their actual real name? im a complete noob, what does this do exactly? :S

Depending on how your reading, you need to find your base address then add the pointer/offset
Ollydbg works good for this
