How to find out the sum of values and improve the code? Character can equip 15 items with 6 stats parameters. The following code works, but it is too big.
Code:
  s1 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+0*4)]][1]
  s2 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+1*4)]][1]
  s3 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+2*4)]][1]
  ...
  s15 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+14*4)]][1]

UDF1['CELabel'..73].Caption = s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5 + s6 + s7 + s8 +
 s9 + s10 + s11 + s12 + s13 + s14 + s15

  m1 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+0*4)]][2]
  m2 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+1*4)]][2]
  ...
  m14 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+13*4)]][2]
  m15 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+14*4)]][2]
 
  UDF1['CELabel'..74].Caption = m1 + m2 + m3 + m4 + m5 + m6 + m7 + m8 +
m9 + m10 + m11 + m12 + m13 + m14 + m15
 
 
  v1 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+0*4)]][3]
  v2 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+1*4)]][3]
  ...
  v15 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+14*4)]][3]
 
  UDF1['CELabel'..75].Caption = v1 + v2 + v3 + v4 + v5 + v6 + v7 + v8 +
v9 + v10 + v11 + v12 + v13 + v14 + v15
 
  p1 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+0*4)]][4]
  p2 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+1*4)]][4]
  ...
  p15 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+14*4)]][4]
 
  UDF1['CELabel'..76].Caption = p1 + p2 + p3 + p4 + p5 + p6 + p7 + p8 +
p9 + p10 + p11 + p12 + p13 + p14 + p15
 
 
  d1 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+0*4)]][5]
  ...
  d15 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+14*4)]][5]
 
  UDF1['CELabel'..77].Caption = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4 + d5 + d6 + d7 + d8 +
d9 + d10 + d11 + d12 + d13 + d14 + d15
 
 
  k1 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+0*4)]][6]
  ...
  k15 = matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(0x009E8664+14*4)]][6]
 
  UDF1['CELabel'..78].Caption = k1 + k2 + k3 + k4 + k5 + k6 + k7 + k8 +
k9 + k10 + k11 + k12 + k13 + k14 + k15


Is it possible to shorten this code?
Or how to put sum of the values in label in the following code:
Code:
for x = 0, 2 do
  m1 = mateff[equippmattbl[readBytes(0x009E8664+x*4)]][1]

  UDF1['CELabel'..61].Caption =
The result is 4, 1, 1 , but I need to put the sum of these values (4+1+1=6) in the UDF1['CELabel'..61] . How to do this?

Anything you call more than once can be placed inside a function,
You could place matefftable[...] inside a function and only supply readbytes address.
Code:
function getV(rb,index)
  return matefftable[eqmattable[readBytes(rb)]][index or 1]
end
S1 = getV(0x009E8664)

And since you hold 16 variables and offsets are pretty much static you could do
Code:
s={} -- similar to var names but you access it via table s[1],s[2]...s[15]
sum = 0
for i=0,14 do
local v = getV(0x009E8664+i*4)
s[i+1]= v
-- _G['s'..tostring(i+1)] = v -- a dirty way to set global variables ... s1,s2....s15 like in your example... better use tables as it much better than accessing global scope.
sum = sum + v
end
labelName = sum



Hope it helps, used phone so its not so clean but gives you the idea
