Inject lua addon as dll?

[krxstal]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering where to start when I want to inject my lua addons in to the game as dll and what to look out for if that is even possible at all.
It wont call protected functions nor do any other sus stuff, I'd just like to learn a bit more about this.
If anyone could point me in the right directions that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I for one don't understand what you're asking. Are you interested in somehow translating your lua code into a native DLL that you would then inject? Or are you interested in injecting a small auxiliary DLL whose purpose is to load your lua script? I assume the latter. Yes, that should be possible. But if you're trying to load your lua into the wow lua environment, be warned that they have checks against this. If you try to register callbacks outside of the .text segment of the wow binary, it will be rejected, for example.

To me, it looks like he just wants to hand out Lua code to others while he slaps an "it's for education use only" label on it.

Well, my advice. Look into Lua Obufscators and you will be able to protect your Lua code somewhat
