Help/Support CSCI patcher help: working with Writedata.h header

[de2ndlaw 1.9k 25]

I am trying to have a hex (edit: int) value entered by the end user into a text box defined by psedittextcell in a referenced plist, to be used as a reference to replace an original hex at a certain predefined offset, looking like this:

Writedata (0xOFFSET, 0x"hex value from text box");

 

I have tried defining a string in advance that extracts the input and formats it as 0x"8 digit hex", as that is what I want the length of the hex to be (4 bytes). I have the following code:

 

NSDictionary *iosgods = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:PLIST_PATH];

NSString *ItemID = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"0x%08X",[[iosgods objectForKey:@"kItemID"] intValue]];

writeData(0x377314, ItemID);

 

But this returns an error during compilation saying that the candidate function is not viable, no known conversion from "NSString*" to 'unsigned int' for 2nd argument:

bool writeData (vm_address_t offset, unsigned int data) {

1 error generated.

 

Could anyone shed some light on what I am doing wrongly? Thank you in advance!

This is because writedata is not setup to convert strings to hex.

I see. In that case, could you please suggest a way for me to go about doing this? I have also tried 

 

writeData(0x377314, [iosgods objectForKey:@"kItemID"] intValue]);

 

And entered an integer inside instead, but the app crashes, and I believe this is because the hex was not properly formatted into 16 bit little endian, which is what I would like it to be.
