MouseOverGUID and mem write

[kajko]

Hi all,

Maybe stupid question, but, does wow monitor MouseOverGUID ?
Will it detect if i write it from my app ?

Thanks,
Kajko

Warden doesn't monitor any address where the value will be changed by any in-game function. It wouldn't make any sense if it did.

They dont but they could if they wanted. They could trace the stack back to see if the function was called by a known function.

I think that the threadopener thinks about reading/writing into that field. Can that be traced back?

You can't really stack trace a memory write*, but it's still true that they could detect certain memory writes if they wanted to, even if the target is written to by the game.

* Okay I lied, you can... But the techniques to do so are outside the scope of this discussion, and I don't see Blizzard ever using any of them. Unless I'm overlooking something?
