When I try to find the base pointer like it is done in STEP 8 from the Tutorial in a game I stuck with this problem.

I already found the DYNAMIC address for money.
It's def. dynamic, cause when I restart the game it doesn't work anymore.

So when I found this address and go to:

Find out what writes to this address and make some changes to the money I got:

The value of the pointer needs to find.... is probably and than the address which IS already the dynamic address. There are no changes to this address.

When I now try to make a new scan for this value (also changed it to hex) there is always NO RESULT.

In the Tutorial the value is different from the dynamic address and you could search for it to find the new address.

So how can the address be the same like the Pointer but it isn't a pointer and how can I make a scan for it?

as offset there is: -mov [rax], rcx

I'm really confused... Sad

look at the disassembly, its possible to have something like:
Code:
mov eax,... ; ... is either mem32 or mem64 with offset
; or maybe
lea eax,... ; mem32 or m64 with offset
; then this instruction comes
mov [rax],rcx


when there is no offset, the the default offset is 0 and must be specified when adding address manually:
Code:
mov [rax], rcx ; default offset 0

Problem is the dynamic address is the same than in the window:
..."The value of the pointer needs to find.... is probably ..."

And when it try to find this address (by changing to hex) there are no results.

In the Tutorial for example this address is diff. and you find results when make new scan with changed to "hex".

read carefully, the address and offset might be in mem32 or mem64.
