I have a tool request for someone looking for a project:

[ratzerna]

Has this project dried up?

 

[Necr0Potenc3]

hm.. in case you guys want it, you have it

I have it done in my old hdd for about an year already and left it there getting some dust

gonna finish my pc this week so.... whatever

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

Yeah, put it somewhere. It shouldn't be too difficult to pick up where you left off, should it?

Cheers,
Ignacio

 

[Mifune]

Is there any news on this?

 

[Revan]

Could someone tell me how to get the location from the client, please?
With that info i could probably start making a simple uo-map app.. I wouldn't expect any hosting though

Use the SDK to do this.

But if you need to know how to something this simple, going to be tough to do this project.

 

[punt59]

Not in SDK , at least orginally

Hmm, unless the SDK got updated, it didn't have libraries to patch into the packet's to get the current location. On would use RunSpy or something for that.

 

[Bradley]

There isnt anything to capture the packets directly, but the SDK does give access to the client's memory space, so you can use it to lookup the values, if you know where to look.

 

[Revan]

Yeah, i know it's simple.. But i'm trying to learn stuff

What could i possibly have done wrong here?:

Ultima.Map.Felucca.GetImage(0, 0, 320, 240, canvas, true);

And here is the error:

System.ArgumentException: Invalid parameter used.

I can draw animations and statics with no problems btw

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

Assuming that canvas is of type System.Drawing.Bitmap or a descendant you should be fine.

 

[Revan]

But i'm not
Brad told me that this should work (because it does for him in VB):

private void Form3_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
			Bitmap canvas = Map.Felucca.GetImage(0, 0, 320, 240, canvas, true);
			pictureBox1.Image = canvas;
}

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

Try this:

pictureBox1.Image=Ultima.Map.Felucca.GetImage(0, 0, 320, 240, true);

 

[Revan]

Oh, how embarrassing.. That's what i should've tried in the first place
Thanks though

could someone be kind enough to help me getting the location from the client using the Ultima SDK? Please?

 

[Arya]

First use Ultima.Client.Calibrate() then use the Ultima.Client.FindLocation() function to retrieve position and map.

 

[Revan]

but with Client.FindLocation wants reference integers..
I've tried so hard how to figure out how to do them..

 

[Bradley]

Just use regular integer variables. once the function complets it will place the correct values into those variables for you.

 

[Revan]

Client.FindLocation(xcoord, ycoord, zcoord, facet);
//and the vars are declared like this:
int xcoord;
int ycoord;
int zcoord;
int facet;

and this is the error (!!!!)

Argument '1': cannot convert from 'int' to 'ref int'

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

Client.FindLocation(ref xcoord, ref ycoord, ref zcoord, ref facet);

Yes, C# sucks.

 

[Bradley]

Yes, C# sucks.

All hail VB

 

[Revan]

All hail VB

Nooo... argh!
Btw, i found out how to do it:

Ultima.Client.FindLocation(ref xcoord, ref ycoord, ref zcoord, ref facet);

Now isn't that easy silly buns? Just add ref before inserting the variables
Now i'll be making UO-MaPZoR 4 h4xX0r!!1
