Death Percent? #1

Open jjhoho opened 4 years ago

Hi, this is, surely, unexpected, but I have a request. I've spent the last 3.5 hours scouring the internet in hopes of finding a concrete answer to this question, and have ended up here. So here goes: could you, perchance, check the game memory and find the base percent chance that a Death weapon procs? or tell me how? I have some small experience poking around with dolphin's memory pointers so it might not be entirely lost on me. I've just been vexed by this so thoroughly that I have no other option than contacting you. Hope you still get github notifications haha.

Apparently I don't get email notifications for this, so I apologize for the 3 year delay in responding. With that out of the way, I'm not sure what you're talking about here. I have mods for a few games, so I'm not even sure which game you're talking about. For the answer to your request, it really depends on which game. With the Ren'Py games scanning memory won't help because of the way Ren'Py handles variables (similar can be said about games written in Mono/C# - so Unity games). For those, you'd use a decompiler to look through the source of the game to find that chance. For Kalmadori Alchemy Master the only way I'm aware of would be to, again, decompile it but if I'm honest that's not a great idea because you're not going to get anything close to the actual source like you will with Ren'Py. Searching for it in memory is not a viable option. It can be done, don't get me wrong, but it would take more time to find than it's worth - and that's if you DO find it.
