Hi, I'm trying to write a simple trainer to find the health (float) of a unit in Warcraft 3. I used the "Create form" feature of CE for this. My trainer has 2 buttons: the New scan does the first scan which searches for floating point values from 897 to 903. The Next scan button is not completed yet because the nextScan() doesn't work. Here is the code:

Quote:
AboutText=[[Scan for unit health]]

form_show(UDF1)
getAutoAttachList().add("war3.exe")
address_list=getAddressList()
UDF1.OnClose = CloseClick
memsc = createMemScan()
function CEButton1Click(sender)

memsc.firstScan(soValueBetween, "vtSingle float", rtRounded, 897, 903, 0, 0xffffffffffffffff, "+W-C", fsmNotAligned, nil, nil, nil, nil, true)
memsc.waitTillDone()

local foundlist = createFoundList(memsc)
foundlist.initialize()
print(foundlist.Count)
if (foundlist.Count>0 and foundlist.Count<=5)
then
for i=0, 5
do
print(foundlist.Address[i])
print(foundlist.Value[i])

end
end
foundlist.deinitialize()

foundlist.destroy()

end

function CEButton2Click(sender)

memsc.nextScan(soValueBetween, "vtSingle float", rtRounded, 897, 903, false, false, false, false, false)
local foundlist = createFoundList(memsc)
foundlist.initialize()

print(foundlist.Count)

foundlist.deinitialize()
end


When I press the "next scan" button, I got "Access Violation". When I tried to access the memscan object using:
Quote:

a=getCurrentMemscan()
a.nextScan(soValueBetween, "vtSingle float", rtRounded, 897, 903, false, false, false, false, false)

I got this error (see attachment)

When I checked, the ADDRESSES.TMP file was not in that folder. It was just empty. I hope someone can help me with this.
I have the source code of CE but I don't know where the code of function nextScan() is, so it's great if someone knows.

I'm using CE v6.7
The game is 32 bit

so from the .exe it gives that error but when run from inside CE it works ok?

it could be your anti virus is blocking the unknown trainerfile from creating temp files

(and don't use getCurrentMemscan() in a trainer as there is none)

Edit:
I've made some changes and it doesn't give error anymore. But now nextScan() yields 0 result, although the values don't change.

foundlist.initialize()
print("Number of addresses found:", foundlist.getCount())

if (foundlist.getCount()>0 and foundlist.getCount()<=5)
then
for i=0, 5
do
print(foundlist.getAddress(i))
print(foundlist.getValue(i))

end
end

foundlist.deinitialize()
end

function FormClose(sender)
memsc.destroy()
return caFree --Possible options: caHide, caFree, caMinimize, caNone
end


Now the health is given in the text field

you're not attached to the process when you're doing your scan

I already did! The first scan is successful, but the next scan always fails.

Code:

nextScan(scanoption, roundingtype, input1,input2, isHexadecimalInput, isNotABinaryString, isunicodescan, iscasesensitive, ispercentagescan, savedresultname OPTIONAL)


vtSingle is not a valid rounding type
rtRounded is not a valid input string, .....

Very Happy How stupid I am. I was looking at the firstScan() function when writing the nextScan()
