[TUTORIAL] Using FindPattern() To Get Addresses

So for all of you who don't know how to use FindPattern() to auto get addresses, this is how:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Add this above the function you create in step 2:

Code:

bool Compare(const BYTE* pData, const BYTE* bMask, const char* szMask)
{
	for(;*szMask;++szMask,++pData,++bMask)
		if(*szMask=='x' && *pData!=*bMask)   return 0;
	return (*szMask) == NULL;
}

DWORD Pattern(DWORD dwAddress,DWORD dwLen,BYTE *bMask,char * szMask)
{
	for(DWORD i=0; i<dwLen; i++)
		if (Compare((BYTE*)(dwAddress+i),bMask,szMask))  return (DWORD)(dwAddress+i);
	return 0;
}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Make a function that calls your FindPatterns, and a global bool, and a global DWORD:

Code:

bool Finished = false;
DWORD Status;


void GetAddresses (void)
{
	Status = Pattern((DWORD)GetModuleHandleA("CShell.dll"), 0x97D000, (PBYTE)"\x71\x37\x50\x94\x71\x37", "xxxxxx");
	if(Status)
	{
		Status -= 0xA;
	}
}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. In your main hack thread, add this before anything:

Code:

if(Finished == false)
{
	GetAddresses();
	Finished = true;
	Sleep(300);
}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Now you may use your DWORD Status as an address:

Code:

if(Status == 1)
{
	/*
	Do whatever you want to do. When (Status == 1), It means you are ingame. You can use this method for ANY FindPatterns to get addresses.
	*/
}

Also i WILL NOT be giving more FindPatterns for different addresses. I used this as an example, you will have to make your own patterns.
