[ASK] Covert MAP (X,Y) Coordinates to World (X,Y,Z) Coordinates 2D to 3D

[broly7]

Hello community, since i've deep researched inside the forum and i couldn't find the function(s) i'm currently looking for, i have to ask for these functions.

I'm in party with my friend, and my aim is to teleport (do whatever) to his position.
So that i use this LUA function: GetPlayerMapPosition("party1")

And it returns me: 0.47841548919678 0.150799036026
As X= 47.8 and Y= 15.1

Now i want to convert both X & Y MAP coords, into X & Y World(3D) coords.

Edit----> Getting them from memory: X = 1276.7667236328, Y = -4492.1215820313

But i can't use memory read, when my partner is away mor ethan 100 yards. (So, out of my client range sight)

What operations should i use then?

Wow.. I'm used to people not bothering to search before posting, but seriously? http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ordinates.html (Zones and coordinates --> World to Zone coordinates) was the top thread before you made this one.

That's because i dont get where has he got those xx yy, 1,2 whatever. And because every freaking thread is talking about 3D to 2D, while i actually just want From 2D to 3D.

Ok here you go:

the map X and Y goes from 0 .. 1.

in the WorldMapArea.dbc file you got all zones where it starts and where it ends.

Now you just have to calc the percentage and you are fine :-)

Just reorder the formulas and you'll get the numbers you want. This is grade school level math.

Thank you

And my last question. Is there a function to get continent coords, as instead of only zone coordinates?

ehm... what? o.O
Your question doesn't make sense. The coordinates you read from memory are actually the continent coords. There are no zone coords (aside from those ZoneMap based ones you're getting from lua)

There are two packets with Opcodes:
SMSG_PARTY_MEMBER_STATS
SMSG_PARTY_MEMBER_STATS_FULL
That give me the WORLD coordinates of my party memebers with the structure:
offset(5) -> UnitGUID
WORD - offset(13) -> X example (1435)
WORD - offset(15) -> Y example (-3846)

DO you know something regarding to these memory values?
I'd like to read them from memory, and they are real, because i've checked them out with my CHeat Engine, so somewhere they are saved.
