Making an Aimbot

[LovestoCpp]

I want to make an aimbot for a game and from what i gathered about making one i need three things to make it work:

A. My Position
B. There Position
C. The angle between me and that player
D. (For instant headshots and what not) X, Y cords for the head postion or
as some people have called it: Bones (not sure if im completely correct on that lol)

Theres one other criteria but i forgot, ill go reasearch again and post it but for now thats the basics of what i want to do.

What im asking is where to start? Its kind of overwhelming yet seems so simple.
Any ideas where to start?


Dont get the wrong idea, i plan on using this on the client side.
I play shooters legit and i dont like hackers either
If you dont agree with my wanting to make one then please, dont bother posting
jus press the back button. If you dont agree i already know it.

Well...find a way to get the data from the game...then it's basically a matter of calculating where you need to tell the game where your target is.

Agreed, ill see what i can do to find something. is there any particular algorithm i can use to find my target? or is it more based on game data?

depends exactly what you are trying to do, but in general, a good aimbot involves a good deal of reverse engineering, and sometimes a bit of guesswork as well, as you are trying to modify data in a running process. an understanding of how the game stores it's data, and renders in 3d is useful too. you need to find the addresses of the data in the process so that you know where to read and write data to/from. the things that you have listed are really just the math aspects of it. I began learning some reverse engineering a while ago, but since i've stopped gaming, so now i'm more concerned with honing my software writing skills.

I see, well i suppose its worth a shot anyway. but thats good to know and helps me get a much better idea of what i need to do. Thanks!
