I am trying to build my first plugin
But i cant figure out how find the value of the bytes (bytes + 10) and how to properly use them..
Please help..

be a little bit more specific
give us an example which byte/word/dword from which packet do you wanna read

if you wanna read a single byte then you're using an unsigned char because it can hold the values from 0-255 (1 byte)
an example would be:

Code: Select all

unsigned char onebyte = *reinterpret_cast<const unsigned char*>((bytes+1));

this would read the first byte after the packetid

for 2 bytes (word) you're using an unsigned short (0-65535)

Code: Select all

usigned short twobytes = *reinterpret_cast<const unsigned short*>((bytes+1));

for 4 bytes (dword) -> usigned int (0-4294967295)

Code: Select all

unsigned int fourbytes = *reinterpret_cast<const unsigned int*>((bytes+1));
