So i have found base pointer(s) and both offsets that show to address i want, but when i enter this to my program i always get return value 0. In the same way i have found pointers for other stuff (in same game) and it works perfectly, but when i enter that base and offsets it does not ... any ideas ?
There is a picture of my base and offsets (i found these exact same way i did other stuff that works)

You might have pointing to the wrong address, and pardon me, i can't get the whole picture. Can you rephrase your question and be more specific. Rolling Eyes

As i've said earlier you might have pointing to the wrong address, try using other addresses you've found and see if it'll work or use pointer scanner instead.
Or better yet, use code injection coz pointer memory addresses tend to change dramatically after every game.

yes, i obviously point to wrong address since i get 0 as return. At start when i search for address, its only one, and its right one because value changes accordingly. than i find out what writes to that address, and after i find what writes i find what accesses (just like tutorial, just like i did for other things that work ...) and so i find base add (green one) i put that and offsets i found to my proggy ( just like other stuff that works) and i get 0 as return ... so address i start with is 100% correct one and since its all the rest i do exactly the same i dont see why it dont work .... but if i find addres i want and use pointer scanner i get so much data i dont know what to use exactly Very Happy

Perhaps you've placed the second offset under the first one instead of above ?

show a screenshot of the address entry of the pointer (when it shows 0)
