Thank you for purchasing the WoW Stat Changer.
****PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FULLY BEFORE BEGINNING!****
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ATTENTION: MAC USERS!!!
This software is incompatable with Mac OS, as stated in our FAQ. You may be able to run a Windows platform on your computer, however, we do not know how to do this and we cannot give support for this software used on a Mac. We cannot guarantee that it will work. Please contact customer support at
support@god-mod.com, and please put "Mac user" in your subject line to make sure your refund is processed quickly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to install the software:
The first thing you need to do is open the zip file and extract it to your desktop. If you do not already have a zip file program, you will need one. We recommend one of two popular Windows programs that read zip files; Winzip or Winrar. You can find FREE TRIALS for them at their websites:
WinZip� - The Zip File Utility for Windows - Zip/Unzip, Encrypt/Decrypt
WinRar Download - Compress Any File you want - Create, Backup and Reconstruct Files
Once you have one of these two programs installed, you should have little difficulty extracting the zip file to a folder on your desktop. To do this, push the extract button, and you will have an option to choose where to extract them to. Do not forget to extract the memory optimiser, Tsearch, and Permedit as well.
You do not need to move these programs anywhere in specific to get them to work. They don't need to be in your addons folder. We recommend leaving them on your desktop so you can find them easily.
Do not try to run these programs from Winzip or Winrar. You must use Winzip or Winrar to extract the programs from the zip file first, or they will not work.
Now that you have the software extracted, you will now need to restart your computer.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ATTENTION: WINDOWS VISTA USERS!!!
After you have extracted and installed the software, there are additional steps that you must do to make sure it works correctly.
***VERY IMPORTANT*** Make sure that you have extracted all the files before you complete these steps. If they are not it will not work!
Before you do anything else, you need to set the administrator rating and compatability for the programs you will be using. To do that, complete the following steps:
1. Right click on Wow.exe, which is located in your World of Warcraft folder. (This is usually the icon you use to start the game.)
2. Go to Properties.
3. Click the Compatibility tab.
4. Click the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select "Windows XP" (Service Pack 2 preferable) or "Windows 2000" from the dropdown menu.
5. Under Privilege Level, check the box that says "Run this program as an administrator" and click OK. (If you are the administrator you won't be able to check the box.)
6. Do the same thing for Tsearch.exe (located in the stathack folder) and Permedit.exe (located in the permedit folder).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
From this point, you need to prepare your computer and World of Warcraft for use of this software. Tsearch will need a lot of your computer's resources in order to run correctly. Please follow these steps:
1. First install frosetup.exe from the folder called "memopt" and make sure it is running. This is a memory optimizer that will help your computer run more smoothly.
2. Close down all other programs that are not necessary for your computer's basic needs. Things like Winamp, Internet Explorer, AIM, etc need to be turned off. Leave the memory optimizer running, as well as any anti-virus or spyware programs.
3. Start World of Warcraft. Login and enter the game. Go to the Menu, and click on the Video options tab. Set WoW to Windowed Mode to allow for easy alt-tabbing
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using Tsearch and Permedit sometimes is very time consuming and difficult. Please take care to follow these steps:
1. Start Tsearch and Permedit.
2. Use Permedit to grant permissions to Tsearch and WoW.exe. This allows Tsearch to see WoW's processes.
3. Find WoW.exe in Tsearch's process list. This will designate all searches towards WoW.
From here, you need to search for and find the address for the buff you want to use. This can sometimes be a long process. Follow these steps:
4. Get a buff in game. A buff is any beneficial spell that effects a stat. You can use any buff, but the best buffs to use will have a timer. This includes buffs from others, buffs from yourself, potions, food, and scrolls.
5. Search for "unknown value" in Tsearch. You should get a large number of addresses. You may also notice a high amount of lag, which is normal. The reason for this is because WoW is very memory intensive, and there are a lot of addresses to search through. (If you are experiencing too much lag and are having problems, follow the steps in the Answer section at the bottom of the readme to help reduce lag.)
Note: You do not need to change the bytes. Leave that on the default setting. Some buffs will cause no results when you search "unknown value". Continue on to step 6, and you should get results then.
6. From this point, search "has not changed" several times. The longer you do this, the more your search will narrow down. You can either wait for the buff to run out, or right click it to remove it.
7. When the buff is gone, search "has changed" only one time. Then search "has not changed" several times just as before.
8. Get the same buff again from the same source. Search "has changed" again only one time. Then search "has not changed" several times.
9. Repeat steps 9 through 11 until you have narrowed your search down to a managable number. Usually this is below 100. Around 10 to 20 results are common.
NOTE: Keep in mind that you should not under any circumstances receive any other buffs during this time. Do not cast any spells on yourself. Do not receive any spells. This includes potions, food or water, scrolls, or bandages. Do not change your gear in any way (equip or unequip). Any changes will cause the memory search to change, which could add new addresses or even remove the address you're trying to find, and you will have to start over.
10. After you have narrowed down your search, start from the first result, and freeze it. (Click the box and a blue smiley face should appear). Go back to WoW, and recast the same buff again while you still have the buff. If your timer reads 0 instead of the usual time limit, then you have found the correct address. If your buff shows any number other than 0 when you reapply, then you will need to unfreeze it and freeze the second result. Repeat this process until you have found the correct address.
Another way to determine if you have the correct address frozen is to wait until the spell counts down to 0. If done correctly, although it hits 0 it will not disappear and the spell will still be active. If your buff disappears, then you will need to unfreeze it, buff again, and then freeze the second result. Repeat this process until you have found the correct address. This method is much more time consuming, but just as effective.
11. Once you have found the right address, write it down. Next time you need it, buff yourself again, and then simply type in the address and freeze it.
12. To change the value of the address you have found, double click on the address in Tsearch and change the value to any number you like.

Answers to common questions about Tsearch and Permedit:
1. If you get a technical error, such as can't find Thotkeys.dll or can't see WoW.exe in Tsearch, please try reinstalling the software. If you are using Vista, please make sure you have completed the steps for Vista above. Sometimes part of the download may have been corrupted. If you need a new download, please email us.
2. If you have a problem with Permedit being unable to find a .DLL or can't find Kernel32.dll file, have Permedit do a search for Kernel32.dll. If this doesn't fix your error, you may need to download a new copy of Kernel32.dll from Microsoft.com.
3. The magnifying glass in Tsearch is the search button.
4. When you freeze a buff using Tsearch, a blue smiley face should appear.
5. What is a buff? A buff is any beneficial spell that effects a stat. You can use any buff, but the best buffs to use will have a timer. This includes buffs from others, buffs from yourself, potions, food, and scrolls.
6. Each address is different for each spell and each player that casts it, so make sure that you get the same buff from the same source each time.
7. This does not work on pets or minions.
8. To reduce lag during Tsearch searches, there are a few things you can try. Login to the character screen, click on the addons button, and turn off all your addons. Enter the game and go to the menu. Go to the Video Settings tab, and turn down everything to the minimal level. This will help to minimize the amount of system resources that WoW is taking up. Set WoW to Windowed Mode to allow for easy alt-tabbing. Click OK and then log out and close the game. Then log back in. Moving to a less crowded area will also help.
9. How do I change my stats using Tsearch? Tsearch searches through millions of memory addresses at a time, and since World of Warcraft runs so many of these, we use a tool (a buff) to sort them and find a select address to change. Otherwise, you would have to try to sort through millions of them to find the address you want to change. Once you have found the correct address in Tsearch you can double click it to change its value.
10. How do I narrow my search more using Tsearch? If you are getting stuck at a large number of addresses and can't get it to narrow down any more, try varying your search a little. For exmple, you always want to search "has changed" only one time, but you can search "has not changed" any number of times. If you are searching "has not changed" many times, you may have more success if you only search it a few times and reapply the buff more. Likewise, if you are only searching "has not changed" a few times, try searching longer before removing or reapplying your buff. Going to a less crowded area will also help.
