I am aware that this is a very nooby question but for some reason I haven't ever tried to really find a pointer since it takes little time to just do the hack and that's what I have been doing, but now I want to find the pointer and really have the hack open once I get in.

I have tried scanning for pointers but that just blocked C.E. and made it shut down so here is what appears on the 'what accesses':

100154D3 - 8B 71 08 - mov esi,[ecx+08]
10014E0F - D8 47 34 - fadd dword ptr [edi+34]
10014E12 - D9 5F 34 - fstp dword ptr [edi+34]
10056A1C - D9 40 08 - fld dword ptr [eax+08]
10013C6B - D8 66 34 - fsub dword ptr [esi+34]
100136A9 - D8 61 34 - fsub dword ptr [ecx+34]
1001EDB7 - D8 66 34 - fsub dword ptr [esi+34]
10014477 - D9 47 34 - fld dword ptr [edi+34]

I did hex scan for the most likely address of each, sometimes many results come up, sometimes zero results come up... so I need to know what results to choose, what to do when it doesn't come up etc...

I'm assuming you used the pointer scanner, but what do you mean "that just blocked CE"? Did CE crash, did the game crash, or what?

Anyway, the last offset is probably either 34 or 8, meaning the value of the pointer you should search for is the address of the value minus either 34 or 8.
Example: let's say your address is 082ADB9C. Search for either 082ADB68 or 082ADB94 (as a 4-byte hex). Anything that pops up is a possible pointer path.

The standard windows calculator can do it if you go into programmer view and select "hex". Otherwise, just google "hex calculator" and I'm sure you'll find something.
