Hello, Im looking for a little help. I have an address that im reading a string from and trying to convert the string. Now I can manage to get only the first couple letters of the string and not the rest. Not exactly sure how to widen up the buffer a bit. Below is my code. and thanks for any help!



Public Function Readmem2(ByVal Address As Integer)

Dim myProcesses As Process() = Process.GetProcessesByName("elementclient")

If myProcesses.Length = 0 Then
Status2.Text = "Process is not opened."
End
End If

Dim processHandle As IntPtr = OpenProcess(&H1F0FFF, 0, myProcesses(0).Id)
If myProcesses.Length = 0 Then
Status2.Text = "Can not open Process."
End
End If

ReadProcessMemory(processHandle, Address, rBuff, 4, Nothing)

CloseHandle(processHandle)

Return rBuff

End Function

Readmem2(&H63FC830)
ret = BitConverter.GetBytes(rBuff)
CharName = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(ret).Replace("RAW", "")
Status2.Text = CharName

You're reading 4 bytes of memory, which is 4 characters.

Okay, so I made the changes. I know my string is 6 bytes, 6 characters, and it still came back with the first 4. So for shits and giggles I put len value to 25 and the program crashed.

Here's my declare, check to see if thats defined correctly.

Private Declare Function ReadProcessMemory Lib "kernel32" Alias "ReadProcessMemory" (ByVal hProcess As Integer, ByVal lpBaseAddress As Integer, ByRef lpBuffer As Integer, ByVal nSize As Integer, ByRef lpNumberOfBytesWritten As Integer) As Integer

You don't need to use OpenProcess with the Process class in .NET, you are already given a handle when you locate the process. Just use myProcess.Handle instead.
