.NET Programming / Beginner's guide to memory reading/writing

« on: February 08, 2015, 07:11:59 PM »

So I wanted to post a few good resources I'd stumbled upon as of late, because I've been a long time EUO user and have always held Cheffe to be a sort of wizard of Oz for the UO scripter community. For those interested, like myself, in how a program like this works, here are a few articles on manipulating programs through editing memory.

Though I believe EUO is written in delphi, I'm a .NET guy myself, so I figure I'd offer C# resources.

Without further adieu...

Here's an example of this with minesweeper:

Games & Game Systems / League of Legends

« on: February 08, 2015, 01:21:14 PM »

I didn't see a thread for League of Legends, but a buddy of mine got me into it lately. So I figured I'd start a post and see what everyone thinks of the game.

I'm still pretty low level, which makes it difficult to play the PvP. And at first glance, the community is pretty toxic if you aren't pulling your weight. Gotta have a thick skin to play as trolls are pretty common there.

Things I appreciate about the game are the scale of it. Hell people play this professionally at an international level. There are Euro, North and South American, Asian and even African leagues that face off in tournaments. And the commentators narrarate the matches like its a soccer game! Game mechanics are complex, which is mainly an artifact of there being 170 different champions you can play as (you get 10 free at random a week and can buy more with points you pay for or earn in game), they all play off each other. Its like a really complicated game of rock, paper scissors!

Anyone else play?

New member introductions / New To scriptUO

Hey, its nirvanaguy,

I have been playin uo for about 6 years, but have been scripting about 2. and Boy was Uo poopy before. Its amazing how automating crap tasks really contributes to a great playing experience. EA should rethink their policies! Who agrees?

Tho I realize this is a market based game. And just letting computers play is unfair. But we all have the same tools at our fingertips!

Oh and I'm kinda cautious when it comes to the details of my characters and whatnot, I would post but I'm a conspiracy theorist when it comes to gms and scripters. It just feels funny that hinds kill me everyonce in awhile, ya know!?

But I've mainly found the scripts are useful when it comes to crafting. Im hoping on a star to someday be able to get the heartwood quest. But until then, I guess I'll just kick around the forums.

I've never been good at writing scripts, and I'm always extremely impressed to see the kinda stuff people put out. I will personally stick to Chemistry and all it has to offer me in my professional life. Which contributes to the lack of time to learn code writing. Life is all about focus and time spent. And I often say that the maker of UO, Richard Garriot, the 6th civilian in space who's also been to antarctica has stolen others' ambitions. lol Hence my rationalization for scripting; I'm all for protecting my ambitions. which happens to be Biochemistry. The body is an amazing tool, adaptive in many ways. And the elimination of health risks is my passion! So stay safe and away from those free radicals that enter your body, they steal electrons! Antioxidants are the key to a healthy circulatory system and a cancer-free life.
