Another client edit attempt

[Las Systos]

Hello everyone,

I want to edit the client a bit again.
When you reach level 10 (and i asume some other levels) you get this random msg:

I want to disable this.
Now since my previous attempt in client editing I've already tried some stuff (thanks to Pipotron)

The UI that pops up is located in ui.wz (UI/UIWindow.img/SkillUp/backgrd & UI/UIWindow.img/SkillUp/btOK)

So in stredit I searched for those:

Now I moved to IDA, this is where my knowledge ends as this seems to be different than the previous edit. I can't see a conditional statement anywhere nearby.

The other ID is surrounded by roughly the same (no condition nearby)

Any hint in the right direction is appreciated!

The difference, here, is that the string you're looking for doesn't refer to a message that's printed on the regular Notice popup window; you're looking for a custom popup itself.

It's possible that the whole function is dedicated to drawing that very popup; this means that you won't have any conditionals in there, because you're at a point where you've already passed your condition (having reached a certain level).

You might wanna look into the call to that function (in IDA, click on the function name, and press X to display the calls. I'm guessing you'll find only one, given how specific of a case we're in - as in, there's only one situation where this window is drawn). Once you're there, check if there's any conditionals right above said call, and try some breakpoints with Olly. If the condition is about your character level, then you found the place. c:

I'm not sure what version you're doing, but I've released this already in regards to my v90 addresses: http://forum.ragezone.com/f923/v90-addresses-1146826-post8866181/#post8866181

// SkillEffectChange Bypass
00B8234A -> JMP (db EB)

The function that handles this iirc was CWvsContext::OnStatChanged. The check involved should be above the other annoying client popup about using your AP.

For v83 its also released, I believe.

Oh yeah lol I completely forgot about that thread. Guess I already explained how to remove it before

 

[Las Systos]

Ah yes, sorry guys.
I found the thread shortly after I posted this. Still thanks pipotron, I would one day like to do stuff like this without asking too much of others. So your answer wasn't a waste!

This is why personally one day everything should be archived somewhere. There's so many things that get released that just get buried again. I am already archiving so much though. F3

Oh ops, my bad, I didn't search whether it was already out or not.

Ah yes, sorry guys.

I'm glad it was useful c: if you'll have any other doubts, we're always here, so don't worry about asking ~
