Code:

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <Tlhelp32.h>

using namespace std;

HMODULE GetRemoteModuleHandle(unsigned long pId, char *module)
{
MODULEENTRY32 modEntry;
HANDLE tlh = CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(TH32CS_SNAPMODULE, pId);

modEntry.dwSize = sizeof(MODULEENTRY32);
Module32First(tlh, &modEntry);

do
{
if(!stricmp(modEntry.szModule, module))
return modEntry.hModule;
modEntry.dwSize = sizeof(MODULEENTRY32);
}
while(Module32Next(tlh, &modEntry));

return NULL;
}

int main()
{
DWORD ProcessId;
DWORD buffer;
HANDLE h1;
BOOL R1;
DWORD ADDY = 0xABCFCC;
DWORD ADDY2[3] = {0x60,0x14,0x80};

HWND hWnd = FindWindow(NULL,"Warcraft III");
if (hWnd) cout << "Window Found!" << endl;
else cout << GetLastError();

GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWnd,&ProcessId);

h1 = OpenProcess(PROCESS_VM_READ,false,ProcessId);
if (h1) {cout << "Process Opened!" << endl; }
else { cout << GetLastError; }

DWORD base = (DWORD)GetRemoteModuleHandle(ProcessId,"Game.dll");
cout << base;

for(int i = 0;i<=2;i++){
R1 = ReadProcessMemory(h1,UlongToPtr(base+ADDY), &buffer, sizeof(buffer), NULL);
//ADDY = ADDY + ADDY2[i];
//cout << buffer << endl;

}

if(R1){cout << "Memory written!" << endl; }
else {cout << GetLastError;}

getch();
return 0;
}

Where is the problem?

you don't use buffer nor addy2 _________________ Do not ask me about online cheats. I don't know any and wont help finding them. Like my help? Join me on Patreon so i can keep helping

Should it be like this?

Code:

R1 = ReadProcessMemory(h1,UlongToPtr(base+ADDY), &buffer, sizeof(buffer), NULL);
for(int i = 0;i<=2;i++){
ADDY = buffer + ADDY2[i];
cout << ADDY << endl;
R1 = ReadProcessMemory(h1,UlongToPtr(base+ADDY), &buffer, sizeof(buffer), NULL);
cout << buffer << endl;
}

Here's an example for a larger multi-level pointer reading without a loop:

Code:

DWORD TempAddress[2];
ReadProcessMemory(processHandle, (LPCVOID)(GetModuleBase(DllName, processID) + DllOffset), &TempAddress[0], sizeof(DWORD), NULL);
ReadProcessMemory(processHandle, (LPCVOID)(TempAddress[0] + pointerOffset1), &TempAddress[1], sizeof(DWORD), NULL);
ReadProcessMemory(processHandle, (LPCVOID)(TempAddress[1] + pointerOffset2), &TempAddress[0], sizeof(DWORD), NULL);
ReadProcessMemory(processHandle, (LPCVOID)(TempAddress[0] + pointerOffset3), &TempAddress[1], sizeof(DWORD), NULL);
FinalAddress = (LPCVOID)(TempAddress[1] + pointerOffset4);
