Creating your first C++ dll hack

Any help would be appreciated.




UPDATE:

I think I found my answer, lol I just had to re-read all these posts 3 more times.

Thanks

main.cpp goes in the "source" folder

[FreakBoy]

Nice work man,

I got it to inject just fine, I would like to learn how to make a in game pop up menu to activate the cheats.... any links? I can learn fast from others source's even if they are detected, old or not. I just want to learn. thanks again man for posting your source code it helped me get my foot in the door to possibly make hacks someday

[learn_more]

if you can learn fast, than i think you can also learn fast how to use a search function, and look for one of the atleast 5 sources on here

ty for sharing this cause i try to learn hackin in c++ with d3d stuff and that helps a lot =D

[rolandsh]

Thanks , now just gotta buy a book and read it

Would be awesome if some1 post a tutorial how to get offsets or pointers or what ever they are, thanks

[Kiwinz]

You are looking for offsets. There are pentiful tutorials on the forums on how to get them, as well as an impressive list stickied in the forum.

Hang on, if I did this, would it be detected by Punkbuster?

Obviously yes, it's a "first C++ dll hack", bit implausible it'll prompt up advanced concepts on the way.

I thought i've searched all over these forums, nice thank you so much for this.

Thanks for the thorough tutorial to guide beginners like me. I've done basic programming with C++ (console stuff, not win32) and a few other languages before but never anything with game hacking. I understood everything except the part with the WriteProcessMemory lines as well as

BYTE StandingON[] = {0x8B, 0x02, 0x90};
    BYTE CrouchingON[] = {0x8B, 0x11, 0x90};
    BYTE ProneON[] = {0x8B, 0x08, 0x90};
    BYTE StandingOFF[] = {0x8B, 0x42, 0x4C};
    BYTE CrouchingOFF[] = {0x8B, 0x51, 0x50};
    BYTE ProneOFF[] = {0x8B, 0x48, 0x54};

Do you mind explaining briefly what these bytes do and why them being written
to the memory would make xhair on? Thanks!

I wish this had been posted when I started learninig c++ very usefull

In fact this tutorial is good for a short feeling of success: copy/paste/compile/inject/play a little, but nothing more. It is just like the topic says "Creating your first C++ dll hack".
Understanding the WriteProcessMemory part, especially the bytes which you are writing to the game memory is much more difficult. A beginner can hardly understand this. You need much more explanations.

You should look for some other tutorials. I saw some nice tutorials which cover all parts. Finding offsets in a game and writing a hack.

how can i add more hack to this

[HOOAH07]

by learning instead of wanting C/P code
you have been told many of times and you get perfect answers.

if you read code you would see exactly where his code was and how to add to it

[frost92]

What If i wanted to use it for a differnt game how do I do that?

[Kiwinz]

Change the Operation Codes and offsets for the game you wish to hack.

BYTE StandingON[] = {0x8B, 0x02, 0x90};
BYTE CrouchingON[] = {0x8B, 0x11, 0x90};
BYTE ProneON[] = {0x8B, 0x08, 0x90};
BYTE StandingOFF[] = {0x8B, 0x42, 0x4C};
BYTE CrouchingOFF[] = {0x8B, 0x51, 0x50};
BYTE ProneOFF[] = {0x8B, 0x48, 0x54}

These are OP Codes.

WriteProcessMemory(bf2142, (void*)(0x05E2C88), &StandingOFF, 3, 0);

This is the offset where the OP Code StandingOFF is going to be written.

Very nice. I have to admit that some of these replies are ridiculous.

Awesome tutorial, helped me alot. But I've got a question.
What is

if (GetAsyncKeyState(VK_F1)&0x80000)

good for?

GetAsyncKeyState(Determines whether a key is up or down at the time the function is called, and whether the key was pressed after a previous call to GetAsyncKeyState.)


&H8000 is known as a bit mask. Here, it is used to determine the high order
bit for keystate (using AND operator) which was set by GetAsyncKeyState Api
function.

&H8000 = 1000 0000 0000 0000 = 32768
