Memory Read Issue.

What am I doing wrong here? :)

Im trying to make a program to read the health and mana values of Dynamic Memory in a game (Guild Wars)...It just doesn't seem to want to read, and I know it's probably my syntax.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <NomadMemory.au3>

Global $GameID
Global $HPointer=0x0802bde0
Global $HOffset=0
Global $Health

$Form1 = GUICreate("Stats Reader", 163, 91, 193, 125)
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Stats Reader", 8, 8, 66, 17)
$Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("HEALTH : ", 8, 40, 56, 17)
$Label3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("ENERGY : ", 8, 56, 58, 17)
$Label4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0", 72, 40, 11, 17)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 8, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xFF0000)
$Label5 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0", 72, 56, 11, 17)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 8, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x0000FF)
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start", 96, 32, 59, 49, 0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
    Case $Button1
        GetHealth()
        
    Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd


Func GetHealth()
$GameID = _MemoryOpen(ProcessExists("Gw.exe"))
$Address=_MemoryPointerRead($HPointer, $GameID, $HOffset, '4 bytes')
$Health=_MemoryRead($Address,$GameID)
GUICtrlSetData($Label4, $Health)

What is _MemoryPointerRead? It's not in the version of NomadMemory I use.

Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

Oh, sry, saw that in another topic, n I just added it in.

Thanks, I've added that to my copy of NomadMemory.

The function _MemoryPointerRead returns either 0 or an array, but you are using the returned value as a hex address, so maybe that's the problem.

Also you give the type as '4 byte' but you should be saying 'dword' I think.

If you know the memory address and the offset then possibly all you need to do is

Func GetHealth()
$GameID = _MemoryOpen(ProcessExists("Gw.exe"))
$Address=_MemoryRead(AddrCalc($Address,$Hoffset),$GameID,'int')
GUICtrlSetData($Label4, $Health)
_MemoryClose($GameID)
EndFunc

Func AddrCalc($StartAddr, $Offset)
    Return '0x' & Hex(number($StartAddr) + $Offset, 8)
EndFunc

Okay, that defiantly answers some questions. But, my problem is I don't know the address. All I know is the pointer. The address changes every time you load into a new area. That's why I was using the _MemoryPointerRead. So the _MemoryPointerRead returns an array with the addresses? Does it return all possible addresses from that pointer?

I've had a look at the function _MemoryPointerRead and it looks like it's full of bugs to me. It is supposed to return an array of pointers and values based on the array of pointers passed to it, but the return array has only 2 elements, and as it goes through the values passed to it the values in the return array get overwritten. It says it was written by Nomad but either I am confused or he was having a bad day.

Here is my modified version which I think will work.

I'm not sure this is such a useful function anyway

.

You got the address

Global $HPointer=0x0802bde0

from somewhere, so maybe wherever you got that there is more information on what is stored where and how. Without that information I can't say what should be done.

I'm afraid I know nothing about Guild Wars (or any other war come to that).
