Memory hack

DracoL1ch · Jan 11, 2017

7 symbols limit kinda too low for full kda which is 2+1+2+1+2

Kakerate · Jan 12, 2017

How did you colorize the gold text with 7 char limit?

DracoL1ch · Jan 12, 2017

there's separate color value for every frame
WMem(frame+0x68,0xFF0000FF)

Kakerate · Jan 12, 2017

Neat. Even with 7 char limit, atleast we can still change color.

Could you post script you used to change it?

DracoL1ch · Jan 12, 2017

ez
WMem(GetFrameTextAddress("ResourceBarGoldText",0)+0x68,0xFF0000FF)
changes take effect on the next redraw (change value of the resource anyhow)

DracoL1ch · Jan 12, 2017

there are also various fields, including offset to draw on. basically you're able to move any frame anywhere, whatever you like.
speaking of changing HUD, minimap is also fully customizable with tons (100+) fields to play with

00/00/00 == 8 symbols damn it!.... or 000000 but it doesn't look good i think.

Then for minimap is GetFrameTextAddress("MinimapFrame or something??? T_T",0)

So let's say that I want to do this:

DracoL1ch · Jan 13, 2017

no, minimap is completely unique object, so there's different way to achieve it. yes, those can be altered, except from command panel - it has it's own watchers, never ever made anything about icon positioning, but surely it has a storage somewhere too

DracoL1ch · Jan 13, 2017

there's way too many options, even have to align neutral spawn map, fog drawning, etc

Trigger.edge · Jan 13, 2017

You can post code for this?

DracoL1ch · Jan 13, 2017

as i said theres tons of options and most of those need to be manually checked.
set pMinimapData=RMem(GameDLL+0xAB6214)//26
set pMinimapData=RMem(GameDLL+0xBE6DC4)//27

data sheet related:
http://d1stats.ru/files/temp/mmp.CSX
search for "Description" or use CE to look at what kind of data located there yourself

Sorry but, is possible change colors by separate? like 000000

DracoL1ch · Jan 14, 2017

obviously nope

Trigger.edge · Jan 14, 2017

Well I want to make my own resources but I try to understand about this and I can not, sorry...

You can provide more information about how to use. Some kind of short tutorial or something?, anything is appreciated.

pDrawTextAtResourcePanel=GameDLL+0x60CA10 I see that you using variables with different addresses for each thing, but the question is: where do you get the initial values, how can be search them directly with my cheat engine?
Functions that change texts: some times WriteNullTerminatedString and others CallThisCallWith2Args... At what point should be used each?
About DotAAllstarsHelper688c.dll: Can be used publicly or is for private use only?

Well for now that's it. And again thanks for your attention Draco!

Natu · Jan 15, 2017

Hey Draco! Is there a way to bypass the cancel menu when you toggle a spell or an order (while choosing a target). If possible, I want to cast smart order or an instant spell while on that state.

As you can see, the other buttons except cancel are hidden. It sucks.

its hard to explain, ill try later with another article
WriteNullTerminatedString is an alias to automatically insert GetStringAddress() into desired address. Call*callWith*Args is an API to call ingame functions and have nothing to do with strings. Imagine it as calling Func0303 from JASS but from WC3 itself. You need to know which arguments to pass, which kind of function of that (this/fast/cdecl funcs, google whats the diff), and know the address of function you want to call (that's function's name)
it have public available sources but I won't recommend to use it as standalone part - there's way too many functions you probably won't use at all. everything it does can be achieved via jass but Im afraid it won't be that fast at all. think twice before making use of natives it provides.

possilble, but there were some issues I cant remember (been long ago), so we never used it. you may force to display normal panel, but its worthless due to buggy behavior

Okay thanks ^^

I was wondering if can change the position of ResourceBarGold Text into ResourceBarSupply Text and vice versa?... I think this way I could solve the limitation of the 7 characters

DracoL1ch · Jan 18, 2017

sure you can switch them around as you wish
0x48 0x4C marked as x/y offsets in my files, it's a float inebtween 0-1

Trigger.edge · Jan 18, 2017

And the magic line is...

call WriteMemory(GetFrameTextAddress("ResourceBarUpkeepText",0)+0x48,???)

DracoL1ch · Jan 18, 2017

??? == SetRealIntoMemor(your float)

Trigger.edge · Jan 18, 2017

call WriteMemory(GetFrameTextAddress("ResourceBarUpkeepText",0)+0x4C,SetRealIntoMemory(-.555)) Is correct?

doom_sheep · Jan 18, 2017

then, you can use these to write all over the screen?

DracoL1ch · Jan 18, 2017

I was wrong, smh

offsets seems to be related to default position and measured idk, maybe %%
actually it doesnt really chage frame's position but have something to do with other stuff. for now I can't say what exactly but I just broke my wc3, making it think like my window is about half of the screen, and it didnt allow me to move mouse off. I changed different fields to achieve that, although changing mentioned offsets didn't help at all and gold's frame stood still all along. So it have to be reversed, and Im out of time

Retera · Jan 19, 2017

Could I use these memory hacks to replace the Console UI textures on the screen?

For example, let's say I had the Night Elf UI textures on my screen like in the screenshot in the previous post.
Then, the player pushes ESC or some other trigger event, and then the Console UI becomes the Human UI textures instead.

I'm currently participating in the Advanced Techtree Contest and was interested in making a race that could do one of multiple one-way upgrades which would permanently change the race, and hopefully the Console UI colors, to add a specific flavor to the race design.

Yes you can

As you can read in the conversations above, you can change everything in HUD.

except command panel

Take your time man :ogre_haosis:

DracoL1ch · Jan 19, 2017

in case if you'll find where's toggle to re-cache textures. as soon as any file is loaded it moved to the cache and retrieved from there later, it's imposible to replace it anymore. we didn't succeed with this idea, so swapping hud isn't option yet

Retera · Jan 19, 2017

Maybe we could look for what happens when you go to Cinematic Mode and come back from it, since it changes the Console UI Hud on and off.

I'm in class but I might have time to check it out later this evening.

Kakerate · Jan 20, 2017

This. Cinematic Mode also causes problems with Modified Resource Strings, setting their color to black.

Retera · Jan 20, 2017

So I went ahead and read through this whole thread finally. Sounds like memory writing is disabled in 1.27b so I probably can't use it in the contest. It's still an interesting thought, though, to have in case somebody re-discovered some obscure nonsensical new way to perform memory writing later on.

But, then hopefully it would be patched, too. Don't really want viruses on battle.net!

DracoL1ch · Jan 20, 2017

you have much higher chance to get virused visiting hive, than bnet. you know, wc3 isnt that big for hackers

Kakerate · Jan 21, 2017

Isn't Preload exploit still a thing, too? Not enabling viruses, just crashing your PC. Pretty much as bad xD

Hi Draco ^^. How are you going with this?

DracoL1ch · Jan 27, 2017

nohow, no time for researches. just released new version last day.
this feature seems to be harder, as it defined at loading, means tests takes 4x more time to catch things

In your thread mh API description you mention that those functions require the external dll, so I assume they do not work without the dotadllhelper?

Then how can I activate the MP bars on units?

DracoL1ch · Jan 29, 2017

doubt you can. they're stolen from maphack, pure ASM code

for those who want to use latest dota dll (version 88g+) but only need few features of it - you can disable unneeded

Trigger.edge · Jan 30, 2017

This dll is very useful

DotaCustomFrames functions, they look intriguing.

Trigger.edge · Feb 10, 2017

These functions look to be useful for moving frames, or am I wrong?

Code:

void ShowFrameWithPos( int FrameAddr, float left, float bottom, BOOL unk = TRUE )
void ShowFrameItemWithPos( int FrameAddr, float left, float bottom, BOOL unk = TRUE )
void ShowFrameWithPosAligned( int FrameAddr, float left, float bottom, int align, BOOL unk = TRUE )void ShowFrameWithPosAlternativeAligned( int FrameAddr, float left, float bottom, int alignFirst, int alignTwo, BOOL unk = TRUE )
void ShowFrameWithPosAlternative( int FrameAddr, float left, float bottom )

karaulov · Feb 10, 2017

I use it for create custom frames, but it not completed. Works example : Glyph button.

Kakerate · Feb 11, 2017

The color change applied to resources gets messed up after Cinematics. Any word on a workaround yet?

DracoL1ch · Feb 12, 2017

re-apply? cinematics arent like thing you can't detect, and resource coloring pretty much static most of the time

Initially, I just did the WriteMemory call on init. However, cutscenes mess with this. Adding the writememory to this function and calling this function after cutscenes doesn't seem to do the trick. Any help?
