CrosshairId returning 0

I am currently trying to calculate the crosshairID but for some reason it keeps returning 0.

I am using the following offsets

Code:

DWORD crosshairoffset = 0x00002410;

and I have the following function to get the crosshairid

Code:

int GetCrossHairId(HANDLE process_id, DWORD CrosshairOffset, DWORD PlayerBase)
{
	//Calculatte the crosshair id
	if (PlayerBase)
	{
		//Our playerbase is valid
		int CrossHairId;
		ReadProcessMemory(process_id, (LPCVOID)(PlayerBase + CrosshairOffset), &CrossHairId, (int)sizeof(int), NULL);
		return CrossHairId;
	}
	else
	{
		std::cout << "Invalid Player base\n";
		return 0;
	}
}

I know for a fact my playerbase is correct (verified several times and I do not get my error) so I am going to assume it is in my ReadProcessMemory and I am sure I am just forgetting something simple but I cannot remember what. Anyways when I validate my crosshairid that is returned from that function it fails because the integer that is returned has a value of 0. Any ideas?

I figured it out! I was calculating wrong with a couple things... all part of the learning process I guess, but I am glad I figured it out on my own. A mod can delete this thread.

1st: just a tip, you can remove all the zeros beofore the offset, so it doens't get spaced out so much, just make it 0x2410

2nd: Why are you casting sizeof(int) to a integer? there is really no need
