I have a label called pItem that is a label that contains the address of the current item I have selected. I want to pointer scan to something that I can't really find a direct reference to in the code, it seems to be associated with the item via the heap or something (the game calls them item stats and is contained in some kind of linked list).

I want to use pItem as the starting point of the pointer scan, and have it look for anything +0x1000 from there, and then do the normal pointer scan for the address. Right now, I'm dereferencing pItem and copying it into 'Base address must be in spefific range' field.

the base address range uses ce's symbolhandler to interpret your input, so this should work:
Code:

[pItem]



but maybe you want to use the structure spider instead.
give as base address [pItem]
