Looking To Get Started

Hello guys, I have been coding in C++ for several months now, making simple programs like calculators, Keygens, and a small RPG (without images, lmao).

I'm looking to get into the hacking scene and start off with CA NA.
I am currently working on an injector, but the thing I need help with is how people create code for hacks. What i mean by that is, a game may have a function that creates an image at the center of the screen. A professional hacker would be able to find (how?) that function within the game's code and re-write it onto his program, then execute it.

My best guess is you would need a pointer list (But then, how can this be converted to C++ code?), or to somehow unpack the dll which contains the game's functions.

The second thing is D3D. I learn quickly, so I just need a link to a tutorial on how to implement it into your code and use it.

Thanks

Edit: Nevermind, solved both of the questions.

If anyone else is facing these problems, here's how to FIND "commands and addies":
https://www.mpgh.net/forum/207-combat...hell-pics.html

To run commands, do a PushToConsole("Commandname value").
To load up addies, do a #define name addie

To implement D3D in your code, download the SDK:
https://www.microsof*****m/downloads/e...2-438a3ba730ba
Then, implement it into your program.

Hope I helped anyone who actually bothered to read this, lol.
Anyways, both questions are answered.

I'm Littel Lost...But Ok.... Let Me Re Read it

If you solved your question this is in the wrong section, he helped someone o.O. Seems like a tutorial to me tehe. Good tutorial if it is, helps people. Could be more explained like what an Addie is, etc. (I know what it is don't flame me)
tehe

this helped me: D

well...ok get a dx9 base and start working on it then?

Once this download finishes (600 MBs at .25 mbs from Microsoft's server), I'll see how to make a simple box menu with two options, and write a tutorial on it.

From my guess, this can be done with 2 Booleans, something like this:
bool bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 1; //This is what is shown by default
bool bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 0; //1 - Selected; 0 - Hidden

When the player presses the down key (Simple char check), an If/Then/Else is run:

if (bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 1)
{ //Great, tabs don't work in posts
bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 0;
bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 1;
}

if (bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 1)
{
bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 1;
bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 0;
}

I'll have to look up the natives for d3d sdk to create anything past that, but that's the base of the code (obviously header names and functions are not included, did this off the bat).

A few things :

= is the assignment operator not ==
You don't need to make an array if you're gonna do it like you're doing it
You don't need == 1 in the if statement you just need if(bIsOptionEnabled[...])

I also don't get those if statements, they will constantly change on/off...

That's what I thought =[

Hey crash thanks for the feedback, but my compiler registers all comparisons (even bool) as !=;==;>=;<= (and i am coding in C++).

I forgot to put the else in the above code, so it would be like so:

if (bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 1)
{ //Great, tabs don't work in posts
bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 0;
bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 1;
}
else
{
if (bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 1)
{
bIsOptionEnabled[1] == 1;
bIsOptionEnabled[2] == 0;
}
}

I prefer to use arrays as it removes clutter of variables, and it's faster when you're short on time (just copy and paste the line).
Thanks guys, like i said, I've only been coding for a few months, looks like i developed a few bad habits already.
