[TUTORIAL]PUD Reversing
« on: January 29, 2016, 12:35:27 AM »
Download Cheat Engine : http://www.cheatengine.org/
Install and open it, open the WarCraft 2 Map Editor.
Open the process choose the WarCraft 2 Map Editor like the one in the picture click open.



Now Click Value Type drop down Box. Select the "Byte" option.



Then Select the "grass" and "titeset" like in the picture below.



So now we want to type 137 into the Value box in cheat engine. Then click "First Scan" you should have a similar screen like below.



Next we want to click the 3x3 size in the WarCraft 2 Editor. Now we also want to type 138 into the Value box and Click "Next Scan" You should have one address left.



Now we can double click the one address left and it should appear below. We click the check box to freeze the value, if you double click on the 138 value it will prompt you to edit it enter 250. Now when i click in the map editor wall is and fills map. If you click tree, rock, water, mud, same effect. If you enter a smaller value it will be smaller radius...



Few more cool things.





Here are some values to get you playing with.

234 = peasant
235 = peon
236 = ball
237 = cat
238 knight
239 orge
240 alleria
241 archer
236 = footman
253 = death knight
254 = gryphon

--------
BUILDINGS
34 farm
35 pigfarm
36 barracks
37 orcbarracks
38 church
39 alter
40 guard tower
43 stables
44 gomish

----
Players : More then 8 will crash but map editor will allow you to place them.
176 = red
191 = new

Size / Menu : Settings Explained in tutorial above.

137 = 1x1
138 = 3x3

this causes a crash LOL!!! Look at all the units and the messed up colors.
176 = red
177 = blue
178 = blah and so on
after 191 you start getting different units (Nothing playable yet.)

Yeah tons of stuff to hack. Also you should try a memory editor. So you can scan for unknown values, changed values, not changed, increased, etc.

nice!! i got the cheat engine but im to dam newbie right now.
lol got a self attacking footie kills himself  ;D ;D make soem comedy maps or he can be some kinda timer.

oh god found some more shit i can just show u next time we do maps.
map1
modifying a peon and his pet kilrog  pissed off the blue peon so i added more..
havent crashed yet but kilrog is bad about it.

i think i can put the bad "gene" into them peons u found up there give them some personality.

they do a good job acting as a warcraft 3 creep..

the peon and kilrog is one unit :o

----------------------------------------------------------------
map2
had a elf that did attack u but lost it :/ non attacking foot they are hard to not suicide thierselfs in the distress of being added back into the game :(
true creeps :o

map 1 is the pissed off peons
map 2 creep footy, kill the blue peon game is over, trying to get them to attack....

(stayed up all night playing with this lol)
