DLLs disappearing

[Coldblackice]

I know I'm gonna get my face slapped, but could I get some help finding offsets in CSS? I'm more interested in the process rather than the actual offsets.

I've followed every tut and question I can find on this forum for finding offsets. I have a non-steam version of CSS and thus I don't have an hw.dll. I was able to find the g_ClientDLL init that one question suggested, but didn't know where to go with it.

anyway, any help would be appreciated, even if it's just a bunch of generic bullet points on the process of how offsets are found.

-> IDA
-> Referenced text strings
-> RTTI
-> Common sense

Use that to find offsets, then create a signature and scan for them (to prevent game updates to break the offsets)

I have a non-steam version of CSS
Good news: it is on sale, just $6.00 USD and some change. However... when using non-steam I can imagine cheating would be a bit less hazardous.

*So where do we start in terms of digging into the SDK -- what are the functions we're looking for?

Hey, super simple newbie example

1. ollydbg
2. view executable modules
3. open client.dll
4. search for all referenced strings
5. search: usp <-- your current weapon
6. use offset to print the weapon in your app
7. done.

If you can't do that.. u have to learn :D
