EDIT: I GOT IT.

The end value I was getting 172966 when Converted to HEX produced the value I wanted, 2B386, with that option enabled, changing the value to another known hex value worked!

Thanks

Okay, I locate my address. 08D35A68 Value 1DF02.

Add it, and click what writes to this address. I get 1 "event" or whatever you call it. When I click more info, it says my pointer is probably "08D34598"

the instruction is this:

Code:

005D2C8C - mov [esi+eax*4+000014D0],ecx

where esi=08D34598(ptr), eax=0, ecx=2B3A6 (The new value, verified correct.)

So, if I remember my BEDMAS from grade 3, the offset is 14D0.

I then search for the pointer, 08D34598 and I get 3 results:

I click Add Address Manually, select the pointer box and type any of them(they all produce the same result), and I add the "14D0" offset in the box and get this:

Code:

P->08D35A68 4 bytes 172966

. (I am looking for the new value after I triggered the debug event 2B3A6, arent I?)

So then I try again, but this time I click on "Add offset" after typing 14D0 in, and this time the ?????? change to the new value! 2B3A6. So I think I am on the right track and it looks like:

Code:

P-> 0002B3A6 4 Bytes 9911845523

Am I missing something? Do I need to click "Add" offset after entering it?

Shouldn-t it say:

Code:

P-> 08D34598 4 Bytes 2B386

And if I change it, shouldn't it change the original address I had to find?

I guess my big question, if I wanted to force the value to be 2B386, couldn't I change the line from

Code:

005D2C8C - mov [esi+eax*4+000014D0],ecx

To:

Code:

005D2C8C - mov [esi+eax*4+000014D0],2B386

Wouldn't that tell the game to always send the address(whatever it is), that specific value?

Thanks for any heplp

EDIT:

I think I am on the right track will keep going at it, thanks
