Thanks! Only issue I ran into with it is when mounted, it uses that name as default for level con (lvl 30). Not sure if it's an offset issue or just general minor bug. Everything else seem to be working great!

No, they seem to be working for me, however, if you select all his offsets, you see how a bunch of them have a lot of spaces after the offset? I removed all those before saving the file and everything on my end is working correctly. I didn't observe your issue, because I removed all those extra spaces before I saved the file the first time.

Nice work man, thank you!

Gah, yeah, the extra spaces were because I originally had the 2/21 offsets left on each line as comments so that I could see old vs. new as reference as I found each new one. Sorry about that.

As for the odd behavior of the client treating your level as 30 when mounted...yeah, I noticed that, too, and I can only surmise that there's been a change to the game itself that causes the "self" pointer to point instead at your mount. If I'm not mounted, when I use the debugger "ft" command to search for my own player name, I get 3 sane hits when I target myself, and only 2 hits when I target another player or NPC, so the hit that disappeared must be TargetAddr, and of the two that are left, one is SpawnHeaderAddr, so the remaining one must be CharInfo. If I'm mounted, however, and I target another player or NPC and use "ft" to try and search for my own name, the only hit I get is for SpawnHeaderAddr, and if I target myself, I only get two sane hits, one of which is SpawnHeaderAddr, and one of which is TargetAddr.

It might work to use the same value for CharInfo as SpawnHeaderAddr, but looking through the ShowEQ server code, I see comments that suggest that the first entry in the spawn list isn't always the player, so that seems dicey.

edit: I've just been playing with this, and it looks like using the same value for CharInfo and SpawnHeaderAddr results in a fully populated spawn list and correctly-colored skittles, even while mounted, so I'm reasonably comfortable with the following:

Very nice. Here are the generated offsets for comparison.

# Using the new Debug CLI

#
# You will see the menu, which looks like this:
#
# Debug Menu
# =======================
# d) display current offsets
# r) reload all offsets from INI file
# spo) set a primary offset (index/name) (hex value)
# sso) set a secondary offset (index/name) (hex value)
# ez) examine raw data using pZone
# et) examine raw data using pTarget
# ew) examine raw data using pWorld
# fz) find zonename using pZone (zonename)
# ft) find spawnname using pTarget (spawnname)

#

#
#
# To select a command, type it in and press Enter. Some commands require
# arguments, which are indicated in parenthesis.
#
# If you are having troubling just accessing the EQ process, first try the 'scan process names' command:
# > sp
#
# You can provide an optional process name to attempt to scan for and access, but if you do not provide
# any arguments, then it will default to 'eqgame'. You will see a list of processes detected on your system
# and if a match is found, it will try and access it, providing feedback on the results. Prior to server v1.19.1,
# this was a case-sensitive match. For server v1.19.1 and higher, the check is case-insensitive. We had some
# problems on a Win2K system regarding this.
#
# When new offsets are needed, you can start the server in debug mode and it will use the
# old offsets as starting points to locate the new offsets.
#
# The first thing is to locate the zonename. Just enter a zone that you know the name of, like the Bazaar,
# and use the "fz" command along with the appropriate shortname for the zone:
# > fz Bazaar
#
# You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be a valid pZone value. Select one and
# place it in the INI file above under ZoneAddr. Now press 'r' to reload the INI file into the debug server.
# Press 'd' to verify your change was actually loaded.
#
# Next we want to locate the pTarget value, stored above as TargetAddr. Inside the game, select any target NPC
# or PC other than yourself. It is best to select a uniquely named NPC, like "Boss Hogg". Do not select an NPC
# with a re-used name, like "a rat". Now you need to determine the hidden name of that NPC. To do this, replace
# any spaces in the name with underscores, and stick a 00 on the end. So "Boss Hogg" becomes "Boss_Hogg00".
# Use this hidden name as the sole argument to the 'ft' command:
# > ft Boss_Hogg00
#
# You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be a valid pTarget. Select one and
# place it in the INI file above under TargetAddr. Press 'r' to reload the INI file.
#
# Next we want to locate the pSpawnlist value, stored above as SpawnHeaderAddr. This is very easy once you have
# pTarget done above. Simply select any target in the game and use the 'wt' command:
# > wt
#
# You should see a long list of spawn information dump out. At the end, we do an automatic scan looking for
# where that entry point pointer lives. You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be
# a valid pSpawnlist. Select one and place it in the INI file above under SpawnHeaderAddr. Press 'r' to reload
# the INI file.
#
# Next we want to locate the pSelf value, store above as CharInfo. Inside the game, select yourself as the
# target (press F1) and use the 'ft' command along with your characters first name:
# > ft Yourfirstname
#
# You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be a valid pSelf. Select one and
# place it in the INI file above under CharInfo. Press 'r' to reload the INI file.
#
# Last we want to locate the pGroundItems value, stored above as ItemsAddr. Just use the 'sg' command and
# look for matched pointers that look like 'ITxxxxx_ACTORDEF', where xxxxx is any 3 or 5 digit number.
# > sg
# Scanning for 'IT' from 0x7d62c4 to 0x9d62c4
# Pointer match found at 0x8d62c4. Full string is IT10805_ACTORDEF
# Pointer match found at 0x9bc648. Full string is ITORTOKEN
#
# Of course the first one here looks good. Put it in the INI file above under ItemsAddr. Press 'r' to
# reload the INI file.
#
# You can now exit the server (press 'x') and restart it in normal mode. Try attaching the client to it.
# As long as none of the secondary offsets have changed, it should work. If it only works for a short time
# and then stops working, repeat the above procedure, but this time make different selections in the match
# lists.
#
# If the secondary offsets have changed, or the basic design of how they obtain spawn information, the server
# may need to be updated. The other debug options can be used to aid in locating secondary offsets, but it
# is so involved that it is probably best to use a full blown RAM editor. Please visit our forums to learn
# how to help ( http://www.showeq.net/ and look for the MySEQ subforums).
#
# Notes:
# - All string searches are case sensitive!
# - As you get matches, write them all down! If a function works for a minute or so and then stops working, try the
# next match in the list.
# - If you use the spo/sso functions, the changes are NOT made in the INI file. Once you exit, those changes are lost.
# - Only reverse walks (wt/ws) will scan for entry point pointers. Forward walks will just show the spawns and return.

Hmm. Even after modding the debugger's spawn scanner to extend far enough that it should've scanned offset 0xfbebc0, I still don't get a hit for SpawnHeaderAddr there.

What data do you see when you dump what is there?
