Patterns and scanning discussion

[gabsens]

Let's discuss how patterns are found and suitable data structures to store them.

An introduction to patterns in gamehacking can be found here.

That link is very helpful and a fascinating read. I am going to come back to this and try some of those techniques on OSX when I get home from work later.

@gabsens I see how to add memory offsets and a range of bytes and why this works, but how would I add them on pen and paper?

@gabsens Thanks for posting that link. I'd like to find a pattern for the scoreboard offset. Looks rather complex, but I'll give it a shot.

If anyone is interested about the offsets for ViewAngles, aimPunchAngle, m_Local i can give them as well as patterns for flags, health and teamnum, since you need to use patternscanning for netvars on macOS...

How would i get view angles aim punch etc
