I'm playing the game Doom 2 that use DOSBox emulator.
I found the health address, now I'm trying to find the pointer for health address.
I find out what writes to health address:
Code:
mov [eax+ecx],edx

where
Code:
EAX: 003692A4
ECX: 060A7020

EAX changes each time I die and restart the map.
ECX only changes when I exit the game and open the game next time.

I scan for the hex value 003692A4 (EAX) but I always got 0 result. It seems like there is no way I can find EAX and ECX address when I scan for its value. I don't know what to do next. Pointer Scan gives me nothing even when I set max level to 10.

If you already have the code, have you tried an AOB injection, like

mov [eax+ecx],edx --> mov [eax+ecx],99

or if the game works with hex value

mov [eax+ecx],edx --> mov [eax+ecx],63

Would be my solution for creating a trainer, that writes always the decimal number 99 to your health address when it is modified, no matter which address is stored in eax or ecx. Or do you want to stick to the pointer solution?
