Get PlayerName wrong in TBC tbc 2.5.1 38835.

[bigofsmall]

Hi, guys,

I was afk wow several years, I'm back recently, and I meet some problem when I use Lazybot.
I want to get the PlayerName with the code of Lazybot, but it seems that it does work, perhaps Lazybot only support 32-bit? Any one can help me to how to change the code?

public enum Globals
        {
            PlayerName = 0x2C45AA8, 
        }

name = Memory.ReadUtf8(Memory.BaseAddress + (uint) PublicPointers.Globals.PlayerName, 256);

public static extern bool ReadProcessMemory(
            IntPtr hProcess,
            uint dwAddress,
            IntPtr lpBuffer,
            int nSize,
            out int lpBytesRead);

Thanks in advance.

I use the code of Memory.cs of Lazybot as follow, any help is appreciate.

public static string ReadUtf8(uint dwAddress, int Size)
        {
            byte[] l = ReadBytes(ProcessHandle, dwAddress, Size);

            if (l == null)
                return String.Empty;

            return UTF8Decoder(l);
        }

public static byte[] ReadBytes(IntPtr hProcess, uint dwAddress, int nSize)
        {
            IntPtr lpBuffer = IntPtr.Zero;
            int iBytesRead;
            byte[] baRet;

            try
            {
                lpBuffer = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(nSize);

                iBytesRead = ReadRawMemory(hProcess, dwAddress, lpBuffer, nSize);
                if (iBytesRead != nSize)
                    throw new Exception("ReadProcessMemory error in ReadBytes");

                baRet = new byte[iBytesRead];
                Marshal.Copy(lpBuffer, baRet, 0, iBytesRead);
            }
            catch
            {
                return null;
            }
            finally
            {
                if (lpBuffer != IntPtr.Zero)
                    Marshal.FreeHGlobal(lpBuffer);
            }

            return baRet;
        }
		
public static int ReadRawMemory(IntPtr hProcess, uint dwAddress, IntPtr lpBuffer, int nSize)
        {
            try
            {
                int lpBytesRead;
                if (!ReadProcessMemory(hProcess, dwAddress, lpBuffer, nSize, out lpBytesRead))
                    throw new Exception("ReadProcessMemory failed");

                return lpBytesRead;
            }
            catch
            {
                return 0;
            }
        }		
		
[DllImport("kernel32", EntryPoint = "ReadProcessMemory")]
        public static extern bool ReadProcessMemory(
            IntPtr hProcess,
            uint dwAddress,
            IntPtr lpBuffer,
            int nSize,
            out int lpBytesRead);

bro thats a function lol. disassemble it and youll know how to read the player name.

Would you mind give me an example, it's first time for me to test 64-bit client.

Which lib do you use for 64-bit. Black magic is only for 32-bit.

Thanks a lot.

lol whoops that offset was to the actual name. read 8 bytes from it and thats your pointer to the string

personally i wouldn't use lazybots memory.cs unless you modify it to work with x64

look at link below for a example memory class / how to fix memory.cs theirs others examples / libarys around first one that popped into my mind tho
