New to hacking source, need mentor

[gagger5]

I was thinking of getting into hacking some source code for rotmg and was wondering if anyone out there (esp. the veterans) was willing to help me out with a guide of some sort. i have the RABCDASM tool and Notepad++ for de-compiling and editing. i know how to decompile and recompile but i really need help with the editing part. i need to know what is safe to change and what isn't, where i add the code, where to find the source code for many popular hacks (such as auto-aim, numerical HP/MP, and lava-walls), and how to figure out which files to change and how.

Responses or an e-mail (ask for mine) to collaborate would be much appreciated.

Hey weres my mention for telling u how to decompile it? Anyway, use a tool called astrogrep and when people release code 'grep' some of it until you find the class file and edit it. If you are working off outdated code, the best you can do is 'grep' what is around the code they gave in the source.
