Dawn of Light

Hello

Have been investigating how to find memory areas (mana, health, coin, etc) in the game.exe process.

Being new to this, I have google searched this extensively. What little info I was able to obtain was, use winhex to obtain the real memory space used. Use Winhack and the process of elimination to find the memory areas of interest.

As I researched, most of the info that I could find was very dated or was not directed at my interest.

Questions.

1. Is this the approach you all would take to find the memory areas?
2. Are these the apps you would use?(Winhex & Winhack)
3. Are there other applications you would use in addition to these?
4. Could you give me a short overview of the data I am looking for?

On question # 4 … I have searched for the sit/stand value. Snapshot of game running, Compare ALL in Winhack while changing diff vars…. Sit, stand, move to diff area, etc.
After many times of this testing process I come up with no values that match. This leads me to believe that this value is tied to other values. An example would be values for Health, Mana, and Endurance. Instead of 3 diff vars in memory, having them all represented by a 3 char string OR binary values of a single variable.

Could you please shine some light on this for me.

Thanks

is this legal? i mean its a kind of changing the client

Is READING DAOC client process memory illegal when connected to your own server that is running DOL?

I don’t really know but I would think not.

At any rate I’m not interested in the logistics… I’d like some insight as to how it is done.

server is for admin so it is trusted zone fo our if you change something with a hack but is on server no problem because a real admin just want server up and will not hack is own server.
if you change on client no problem too because it is not our job it is mythic job to make it secure.

Sorry DoeJoe, but no information regarding memory locations will be provided on DOL forums. There is no reason to modify the client, especial anything to do with mana, health or gold.

Posts like this mostly mark ppl. that want to try to hack the real servers and just want to try out their luck on DOL servers because there are no penalties if they fail.

Just to clear things up, changing the client memory locations for healt, mana and/or gold isn't going to change ANYTHING since those values are stored on the server and if you set your own health to 1000000000% on the client on level 1, you will still die after one hit of a high lvl mob.

No help regarding any hacking will be provided by DOL, be it on DOL servers or on live servers. End of this discussion.
