Documenting GTAIV memory addresses

[the hubster 0]

 

 

Please note the exe version when posting memory addresses (what patch is installed)

 

You will need Rick's xlive.dll Wrapper or xliveless to edit protected memory addresses.

Can you post the CRC hash for your GTAIV.exe? Should help with everyone just incase the EXEs are changed in anyway.

i suspect that the file size is good enough. . .if something is changed then its more then likely the file size will change also...

Hi guys, i'm not so experienced in disassembling but i've had a bit of progress. I think i've found some pretty good offsets in the following code:

It looks like it's maybe allocating a function to an opcode? I'm not sure... Rockstar may have organized the code in a way that each subject-specific opcode is contained within it's own method. Which would explain why only time related opcodes are in this?

 

I'm attempting to have a play around by calling some opcodes myself through C/C++. I'll let you know if i have any luck!

Pretty sure you're dead on right, the little bit of mission script I've seen suggests just that; as though they've moved from a BASIC approach (II/VC/SA) to a more streamlined object-oriented scripting (C/C++).

 

Nice work here guys!

[aru 15]

There's no notion of opcode per each function anymore... The basic opcodes of the IV scripting engine (or should I say RAGE scripting engine ) are just some very low level VM opcodes like add/sub/jmp/call/etc. One of those opcodes calls a native function, and its invoked by the hash of the name of the function... which is why you see all the names there. The hashing algorithm is use is the One-at-a-Time Hash:

 

 

ub4 one_at_a_time(char *key, ub4 len){ ub4   hash, i; for (hash=0, i=0; i<len; ++i) {   hash += key[i];   hash += (hash << 10);   hash ^= (hash >> 6); } hash += (hash << 3); hash ^= (hash >> 11); hash += (hash << 15); return (hash & mask);}

 

(from: http://burtleburtle.net/bob/hash/doobs.html)

 

I have the full specs of the scripting VM and the opcodes written up on paper from the 360 version (and its pretty much identical on PC)... I just haven't had time to type it all up nicely.

Those of you who are using IDA may find this useful.

http://public.sannybuilder.com/GTA4/native.idc

 

It is an IDA script that gives a name for every native command handler (there are about 2800 of them). So, for example, this code

 

 

.text:00B5A19E                 push    offset sub_B5A120                  ; handler.text:00B5A1A3                 push    offset aHas_script_loa             ; "HAS_SCRIPT_LOADED".text:00B5A1A8                 call    registerNativeScriptCommand        ; Call Procedure

 

becomes

 

.text:00B5A19E                 push    offset n_HAS_SCRIPT_LOADED         ; handler.text:00B5A1A3                 push    offset aHas_script_loa             ; "HAS_SCRIPT_LOADED".text:00B5A1A8                 call    registerNativeScriptCommand        ; Call Procedure

 

and 00B5A120 accordingly is changed to the procedure n_HAS_SCRIPT_LOADED.

 

Run the script via File > IDC file... menu

first field (4 bytes) of all classes with virtual methods - pointer to virtual methods table

It should be as that : http://public.yoa2n.fr/gtaiv/Documentation.txt ?

Uhhh... No.

 

If you define inherited class/struct/union, all fields from the parent class will be added automatically (no need to define them again).

First field of the inherited class follows last field of the parent class.

 

Also, if you define at least one virtual method, VMT pointer wil be added by compiler.

 

And look at the inheritance diagram (search for CVirtualBase):

 

class CVirtualBase;

class CEntity : public CVirtualBase;

class CDynamicEntity : public CEntity;

class CPhysical : public CDynamicEntity;

class CVehicle : public CPhysical;

class CAutomobile : public CVehicle;

.. and so on

FB4D00 - Health float

59004EC - Health float ??

Edited December 15, 2008 by wildmotzi

[saracoglu 6]

Blued-out pieces of this post, as they are no more relevant

 

anyone successful with fixing/editing any of the memory values?

 

FB4D00 - float: health is most probably stats related. Before the patch, this stat was on 12777C0.

The memory footprint around the address is not populated enough for a ped object.

 

There are two more dynamic locations holding the same value as the FB4D00:

5DF33C4 and 6BB9AEC (dynamic, still need to resolve offsets to object start)

Values around both the locations are fairly similar. Also similar to those of GTA SA.

One of them seems to be the shadow copy of the other (of the player ped).

 

There should also be a mirror ped for the values, or at least a mirrored copy of values that would

probably be edited by trainers. Changing health value on all three locations at once does change

the health. However, I thins the mirror copy has also to be found and changed to the appropriate value.

 

Example: with a health of 180, changing all three to 200 back results in a red bar (mirror?) of

20 so that the health changes to full, but pending deduction of 20 remains. Next time player

gets injured, this pending 20 also gets executed. Bad news is, the several copies got out of

sync, so the deduction gets executed in a loop until player dies.

 

CPlayer is a CPed class. The health should also apply to the other peds within the game. The ped object

should fairly be same as our player. We might corner one of the peds (not loose them from sight to prevent

them to be respawned/recycled), aim at them, and use the player targeting entity -> targeting ped -> ped object to check if the same shadow copy exists for them as well, or if we can edit their health / armor

without game interfering and setting them back.

 

The memory around 5DF33C4 and 6BB9AEC consists of several location values, changing as the

player moves around. There are several of these blocks, also including vector information for

the direction each piece of the ped is looking at.

 

The CPed of GTASA was very similar to its CVehicle

object. I hope that this is also the case for GTA4, so we can decode car offsets looking at the ped memory.

 

until then, I try further to document the offsets around the CPed object.

cheers

 

Edit:

The 5DF33C4 (still dynamic) seems to be the Health of the CPlayer, stays stabile, and same as player gets injured. The Shadow copy in 6Bnnnnn is a block of 1280 bytes, repeating itself. By each injury not only the

health, but the whole object gets re-copied/cloned prior to entering the changed value, and the newly created

clone becomes the new shadow making it harder to fix memory values on the fly.

Here are some locations of health (probably the whole ped object), that got filled by each punch as player

got beaten by another ped:

06BBA9EC, 06BBD6EC, 06BBDBEC, 06BBE0EC, 06BBEAEC, 06BC1CEC, 06BC2BEC e

As you see, the smallest offset is 1280 bytes, and all above locations are offseted by a multiplier of 1280.

 

Also, this time, Ped object has also have detachable parts similar to the vehicle object (example: door to car is detachable as handbag to ped)

 

Edit2:

Grayed out all irrelevant comments. With Rick's xlive.dll, it is now possible to edit xlive-buffered values.

I have been able to beam the player around map, on foot or in car. Will post offsets soon

 

cheers,

Good news.

At least stat Information can be fixed/edited.

 

Current Game Time:

 

Hours:    0x010AC530Minutes:  0x010AC52C

 

 

Values are Bytes, changing them also changes day/night within the game.

The Missions like 'Pick me up in one hour' or 'deliver by 19:00' can be tricked by editing these values.

 

cheers,

+ 0x564  -> (DWORD) Team

 

For CPlayer,

 

CPlayer

+ 0x590 -> (XLiveProtectedBuffer *) Current Money (4 byte sized protected buffer)

+ 0x594 -> (XLiveProtectedBuffer *) Current Money (4 byte sized protected buffer, again for some reason)

 

Unconfirmed, but it appears that player health is available at CPlayer->Char->+0xE8C (a XLiveProtectedBuffer *).

The money protection might be due to Social Club tracking those stats.

No, XLiveProtectedBuffer are buffers allocated by GTAIV with the XLive protected buffers API,

Thank you very much Rick.

Now that it is possible to edit some protected bits&bytes and see the changes in the game, I can go memory fishing. I will try to document as much vehicle and player offsets as possible before start coding the GTA4Center

 

cheers

From discussion in #iv-modding, some information posted about CPlayer/CChar is incorrect.

 

CPlayer

+ 0x578 -> (CPlayerPed *) playerPed

 

CPhysical : CDynamicEntity

+ 0x1F0 -> (FLOAT) Health

+ 0x210 -> (FLOAT) related to health changes?

+ 0x214 -> (FLOAT) related to health changes? old health?

 

CPed : CPhysical

 

CPlayerPed : CPed

+ 0x1F0 -> (FLOAT) (inherited, just mentioning as it is unused, always 200.0 in CPlayerPed)

+ 0xE8C -> (XLiveProtectedBuffer *) Health, float

Disable xlive memory hashing

 

xlive.dll + 0xCB8DA NOP 6 bytes

 

This allows the game to run, but no xlive functions will work, and some may cause the game to stop working. Whether or not it loads your profile is pot luck.
