Hello!

I have followed a few tutorials on youtube on how to read a game's memory with python by using the offsets given by cheat engine, however it's not working propely, the base module address given on the pointer scan result and on the module list are different, i have looked arround and haven't found a solution to this yet, if anyone can help me that would be much appreciated.

The arrow -> means "points to", or "the value of the pointer at this address is..."
Read the 8-byte value at the address game.exe (i.e. 7FF761460000) and you'll get 300905A4D.

But you shouldn't be reading the value at that address. The base address is "game.exe+whatever", not "[game.exe]+whatever"
