This really buggin' me!

[Sigan]

Hey ... So I started trying to fool around with a script or two in Ark, and I've found that I can't use globalalloc() there or else my script won't activate. Do I need to have a setting changed in CE or... Any ideas? For reference, here's an example of one I made using the template:

Code: Select all

{ Game   : ShooterGame.exe
  Version:
  Date   : 2018-11-18
  Author : Sigan

  This script finds the dino dude's stats
}

[ENABLE]

aobscanmodule(INJECT,ShooterGame.exe,F3 0F 11 8E D4 06 00 00) // should be unique
alloc(newmem,$1000,"ShooterGame.exe"+2532CD)
globalalloc(_DinoDude,4)
label(code)
label(return)

newmem:

code:
  mov [_DinoDude],rsi
  movss [rsi+000006D4],xmm1
  jmp return

INJECT:
  jmp newmem
  nop
  nop
  nop
return:
registersymbol(INJECT)

[DISABLE]

INJECT:
  db F3 0F 11 8E D4 06 00 00

unregistersymbol(INJECT)
dealloc(newmem)

Try

Code: Select all

globalalloc(_DinoDude,8,ShooterGame.exe)

[Kalas]

This instruction is writing as well, make sure after enabling using Eric's method to do whatever action needed in order to refresh those pointers.

[Sigan]

Try

Code: Select all

globalalloc(_DinoDude,8,ShooterGame.exe)

Thank you, I will.

This instruction is writing as well, make sure after enabling using Eric's method to do whatever action needed in order to refresh those pointers.

What do you mean by refresh those pointers? Once enabled, it'll write that register into the new variable, then I can just refer to that the whole time it's on. What do you mean refresh those pointers?

[Betcha]

What do you mean refresh those pointers?

Your script is not accessing the point where you did injection.
Your Pointer will appear only when you do some "action" in game.
Same action you did to make that Instruction of injection point appear.

Code: Select all

code:
  movss [rsi+000006D4],xmm1
  mov [_DinoDude],rsi
  jmp return

[Kalas]

Try

Code: Select all

globalalloc(_DinoDude,8,ShooterGame.exe)

I meant since its not constantly accesses this instruction you may need to perform an action at least once after enabling the script in order for the pointers to show.

[Kalas]

An example could be :

When health decreases, after script enabled decrease health again to refresh the pointer.
