Hi guys,

So I got to playing Arcanum Magick Obscura or whatnot and I love the game.

Now I wanted to make a trainer for it.

I got to changing Points first. These are like skill points.

Regular mem scanning for a base ptr doesn't work here, because it shows up as a display element, like:
004E7726 - F3 A5 - repe movsd

Now what I did was use the Pointer scan for this address feature.

I got a base pointer, or at least I thought I did.

Basically, if I make a char of a certain race/type, my base address ptr works fine and shows up every time I relaunch the game.

But if I change the race of the char, the base ptr stops working and I get the usual ?? for the ptrs.

Anyone ever run into stuff like this in other games, CRPGs?

Why would changing character attributes, effect my base ptr?

Guys i'm truly stumped. I have read all the tutorials. I'm not a newbie to CE. But this game is killing me. I have tried all sorts of ptr levels and offset sizes, i tried level 7 pointer scanning. I can't find a pointer, period.

Take a look at this picture when I try to detect the points pointer and I did a "What writes to this address".

I see the esi, [esp+1C] instruction. But I'm not sure if that's what I need.

As you can see from the pic, the only thing I always find is the display pointer of repe movsd. Which just copies string to string....
