Hey guys, yes I know. It has been a while since I have gotten on.. I have been very busy.. I come to the forum asking a question that maybe an expert can answer.

I have started a request forum for members on a forum to request programs from me.. Well, I have received a somewhat complicated request..

The user plays the game World of Warcraft. He wants to be able to run my program and have it search for any gatherable herbs in the location he is in and save the location to a .ini file.

How should I tackle this? Would this be packet reading, or is there a way that this can be done without risking a potential mass ban, or detection. I am sure I could get this coded, I just need to know how I should go about doing it.

When you are playing WOW, where is the data stored that indicates "gatherable herbs" and the players current "Location" ?

Is it the players PC or is it on the game server a thousand miles away? If it is in the playes PCs memory, Where in memory is it? How can you find it? is it always in the same memory address? and Is it encrypted and/or encoded? What codes signify whic herbs?

You need to answer these questions and probably more before you can proceed.

ALSO - what is the potential ROI for developing such a program?
