Need help finding pointer, got somewhere but got stuck.

[Kasebrot]

Did I do everything correct? Because I found a pointer of -60 I am not sure what I would do.

I was following Josese's guide.

[JB Gzn]

add 3C to the address for the current addy
(60 is 3C in hex)

[Kasebrot]

So I just double click the health adress? And Add 3C?

I double click it, which tab is it under?

Sorry but I am really new to this stuff.

The pointer you have found is inside Windows® DLL files, so unless you are trying to find data used by Windows®, not by your game, you have not done things correctly.

How do you know this? I targeted the game I am playing. And I searched from 01CD1524 TO 01CE1524.

[L. Spiro]

Because their addresses are 0x77XXXXXX. This range and above is reserved for Windows® system modules.

Sorry for being an idiot but can you tell me where I went wrong?
(Your the professional)

1.Opened up game and targeted (my game) with MHS.
2. Lose Health/Gain Health etc. Search desired value
3. Found correct address for health. (0F22DA9C)
4. I click Search and I go to Pointer Search.
5. FROM:0F22CA9C TO: 0F22DA9C (I also checked find static pointers only)
6. I get 4 Results. Closest being 602CFF10 -000000AC(-172) (Module was Engine.dll)

Now I am confused by when you says Windows(R)Module. What am I doing wrong?

Do you mean I am searching in wrong module? If so how can I change that?

I am also eager to here the correct answer as this would help me so much. I'm in the same shoes as the OP ^^
Infact I have an address which is not in windows DLL range, but still don't know what to do!

you're fine this time. Windows DLLs aren't located there. Module engine.dll sounds like your games gaming engine.

Nothing. This time.
Engine.dll is part of your game, so it is perfectly usable and you can continue as you originally planned, whatever that was.
Probably by adding it as a Complex Address in the form:
[Engine.dll+XXXXXX]+3Ch

XXXXXX = 602CFF10 - Base Address of Engine.dll.
Type (602CFF10h-Engine.dll) into the Expression Evaluator to get this value.

I pressed ok and saved the lssave. Restarted game and than opened lssave and it says value unobtainable.

BTW: Where did you get the +3CH from?


Thanks for your help so far.

[L. Spiro]

Read my post again and again.

[Engine.dll+XXXXXX]+3Ch

XXXXXX = 602CFF10 - Base Address of Engine.dll.

Furthermore you did not check “Use Complex Address”.
How will your Complex Address work if you don’t turn it on?
If you didn’t know this, it means you did not read the help file.


I got 3C because that was the offset that appeared in your Found Addresses list. In the last picture you showed, it is AC, so you would use that instead.


Therefore your Complex Address is:
[Engine.dll+2CFF10h]+ACh

Thanks L. Spiro, you have been most helpful.
