So, I followed the tutorial steps (up to code injection) to get a pointer for player HP. So I tried doing this in game, and I managed to get like 6 (more if I kept going) pointers that tracked my current HP. Followed the steps completely as in the tutorial and everything is dandy. But .. when I restart the client ... they don't pick anything up. What am I missing here ..? I thought that was the whole point of finding the specific pointer address/offset :\

Any help would be appreciated, and I can include any information needed..

(Here's an unhelpful pic of CE .. after I restarted the game)

So you followed it till you got a green address ?

Anyhow, try the pointerscanner if all else fails

Thanks for the reply Dark,
Here is my step by step process...

(But to answer your question, I never saw anything green o_O?)

Please look at my pastebin link here: pastebin[dot]com/QaaTZ6r3
because I post URLs in this post and I dont want you to have to manually type in all of the images...

step1:
There is only one address that is valid an all others are just shadow values
Change one value, change it in the game and see if it had an effect, repeat this a few times until you find the address that's actually correct

this can make all the following steps be for nothing if you've just been looking how the shadow value get's the value

I'll assume that you 'accidentally' picked the right one and that 06f30b80+2f4=06F30E74 was the correct address

step2: ok (remember offset 2f4)

step3:
In this case I would not go with the 0x00189530 but take one lower. Below 00400000 usually means it's the game's scracthpad meaning it gets overwritten with completly different data frequenty

as for filling that in with a pointer is not yet needed yet as it's not a green address, so useless

step 4 would be adding 06f30910 and then finding what accesses that address
And then do a hex search for that base ,and remember the offset, and repeat that until you find a green address or not.

What might help:
Do step 8 in the tutorial

and again, if all else fails, pointerscan:
At step 2 assuming you have the correct address rightclick the address and choose pointerscan for this address
The default settings should be good enough so press ok and it'll start scanning (can take a while depending on how many cpu cores you have and how fast your harddisk is)
