D2Stats 3.11.1

[Kyromyr]

Minor update. Changelog in OP.

[void]

i dont understand how you made it so the program can read and output the ilvl of the item under the cursor. mind to explain a bit how the program knows where the cursor is and what item its pointing at, as well as how it gets the ilvl of an item?

Hey, do you use Git?

Well, it's a bit complicated, but basically: the game stores a pointer to the item which is on the cursor at a certain place in memory. We can use that to get the item data, including ilvl. To display it on screen, I use code injection - the same thing Plugy uses to add all those nifty features in single-player.

I have it set up and everything, but don't it use much. I really should though.

mmm and how did you know about the pointer and how did you know how to access it?

Want to start a repo? Or we could use the one I created:
https://gitlab.com/Quirinus/D2Stats

I added an icon and your name to the about section. Didn't add the newest changes yet, though.

In this case, the item_getilvl function was already there in the original script, so I lucked out on that part. Otherwise Blizzhackers have some good resources on diablo 2 modding/hacking in general, including lists of function/variable pointers and structs for various game versions.

I was going to, but if you already have it set up we can use that. Havn't used gitlab though, so will have to create an account and stuff.

[Quirinus]

Doesn't matter, you can create one, no problem.
You use GitHub?
