Client [7.0.3.22522] : Need help to return PlayerName from memory

[raden38]

Hi,

I just want to retrieve the PlayerName from the memory, but i'm a beginer and this does not work.
If anyone can give me some help.

I use two dll files:
BlackMagic.dll (1.0.0.0)
fasmdll_managed.dll (1.0.5080.15965)

And i have this C# code on WinForm Application button event:

            private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                BlackMagic wow = new BlackMagic(); //Create new function to open wow process
                wow.OpenProcessAndThread(SProcess.GetProcessFromWindowTitle("World of Warcraft")); //This Opens "World of Warcraft" window

                string playername = wow.ReadASCIIString(0x68C278 + 0x10, 16); //reads player name
                Console.WriteLine("Player Name is: " + playername); //writes to console to tell player name
            }

playername is empty.

I found these values on the following page: [WoW] [7.0.3.22522] Release Info Dump Thread
0x68C278 <= Addr_PlayerName_Ptr
0x10 <= Offs_PlayerName
16 <= length so i don't think it is important

I have missed somes informations i think?

Thanks for your help, and i'm available if you have questions.

You need to add wow.exe's base address, something like:
wow.baseaddress + 0x68C278

@raden38
You could check those addresses in CE fast wow.exe+address/offset.


@Vandra
Indeed else you wil never find that Playername address

Havent used blackmagic but first you will need the wow.exe module base address, blackmagic should be able to get that for you, add it to the "Addr_PlayerName_Ptr" offset. (alternatively blackmagic might provide a relative addr option, if so you can set that to true instead)Then read the addr from memory and add the playername offset to that address.

pseudo code: (blackmagic might take a uint instead of an IntPtr, i dont know).

1. IntPtr playerNameBase= read<IntPtr>(wowbase+0x68C27);
2. string name = readString(playerNameBase +0x10);
