ManualMap inject a DLL from Resources in C++ - c++

Question

I am learning C++ and I need help figuring out how to inject a DLL with ManualMap Injection from the C++ Projects resources.
I have a source for this in C#, but I am not sure how to convert it, and I don't want to try to convert about 5000 lines of code.

Answer 1

Here is a undetected DLL Injection using ManualMapping it's undetected by many GameGuard's for injecting DLL's into games.
