Nice tutorial
also good example of why not to click stop too soon. (generally speaking, never use stop unless your harddisk is too small)
The pointerscan goes from the lowest possible offset to the biggest, but if it happens that the actual (working) pointer is a high value offset at the end, stopping prematurely will not find it (e.g in case of your example, if you where too quick, it would have included the pointers ending with 234, but not those ending with 39c)
as for the explenation why your program has a level 5 pointer:
Your string classes are created in the stack of the program instead of being stored at a static location in memory. So the pointerscan will have to find a static address that points to something else which finally points to it (e.g display->stringhandler->stackbase->offsetintostack, etc...) _________________ Do not ask me about online cheats. I don't know any and wont help finding them.
