Hello

I've tried get the total amount of gold in shadowflare (Singleplayer game) but I can't do this.

The gold is separete by amounts of 10000 in the bag and show the total in the top of the bag.

So far I could only get the pointer (because the address is DMA) that's the last item on the bag and values separeted of gold (1 address for each amount of gold).

I also tried to get all items of the bag (for so get all amounts of gold and then sum all values), but no success.

And finally I tried every way I know get de total of gold what shows for me in the bag (Find for 4 btes, float, double, strings, all values in the same time, find for unknows values and "decreased" and "increased"), but nothing Sad

I want do this for build a mod for this game. The game is good but there are things that can improve. My mod will help but will cost gold and MP(this way will not be so easy).

Any tutorial or helping for how can I do this? Thanks.

- Get a single stack of gold in your inventory.
- Search for the exact amount (4 bytes).
- Right-click the stack, take out 1 piece of the stack and put it in another spot in your inventory.
- Research for the original amount - 1.
- Place the single piece of gold back in the stack.
- Research for the original amount.

For example:
- Get a stack of 11 gold.
- Search for 11.
- Remove 1 piece of gold from the stack into a new spot in the inventory.
- Research for 10.
- Put the 1 gold back into the stack.
- Research for 11.

You should be able to find the value easily then.

I tried it but what I get is address only for an stackof gold, not for total of gold in bag.

Example:
1)(Steps that you suggested)
2) add more 10000 of gold on stack of 11 gold, the game will make 2 stacks, 1 = 10 000 gold(Limit per stack) an 2 = 11 gold(what I had before).

the addresses that i found ever is just for stack of 11 gold or 10 000 gold, never for 10 011, the total in bag.

The total is calculated from each entry in the bag that is found and added up.

This is the function that handles that:

So thanks. How can Iintercept de return value of this function in CE?

This will fake the return value to show whatever you want, but keep in mind this may not have the results you are looking for. Also not sure what version of the game mine is, it's super old that I had on an old drive so dunno if the addresses and stuff will line up the same for you.
