Hey there, guys. I've been lurking for a while and as I can't seem to get my issue fixed alone, I have to ask you for help.

I have found x,y coordinates by decrease/increase/changed/unchanged options while scanning. I can edit them, and therefore I can teleport to any location I wish to, as long as I know where I can place my feets and don't crash myself out of the game.

I have also found a way to speed up my character as much as I would love too.

These two options are client-sided and I didn't find yet other things to play with, but that's not the problem.

Each time I restart the game client, adresses change - I have been trying to locate pointers, but I've failed, so I've tried to bypass the 'codeshifting' issue - failed again!

It's probably not the method problem, but my lack of experience and luck.

Could somebody help me here? If so, what do I have to tell? Anything will be helpfull. But please.. do not link tutorials, because I have already checked them, and I have failed anyway. Sad

Right-click one of the addresses (preferably X) and find what writes to it, and see if you can find a repeated offset for it. If the coordinates are float/double and the writing function has no offsets, then view it in the disassembler and look up a few lines to see if you can find something like fload or whatever that has an offset to it.

Then do the same for Y and check it's offset. Same for Z of course.

Then right-click the X value, select a pointer scan, change the depth to 6, max offset to 1024, and then make it only keep pointers that have a last offset of whatever the X one was. Let it run for a while and then see if that gets pointers for 'ya.

If not I'd use an aobscan to find the structure.

I have not written a tutorial on this yet, so check out my Starbound and Rogue Legacy tables, they do it for the player stats.

It's basically finding where the structure starts in RAM, then taking samples of that section of RAM (like at least 5 lines) over and over and then making a scan out of it.

Thank you for the reply, I will follow your steps as soon as I will finish my route as a courier.

There's only X and Y, luckily, one less issue to fight with! Wink

edit:
0133E7FC - D9 9E 78090000 - fstp dword ptr [esi+00000978] is for Y
0133E80E - D9 9E 7C090000 - fstp dword ptr [esi+0000097C] is for X

I guess the 00000978 / 97C are offsets for X and Y coordinates?

Yup, that looks right to me. So search with the final offset as 978 in the pointer scanner when scanning for X.

I've set up the scan for about a hour or so, and it didn't find the pointers - maybe I've set up the scanning wrong?

I can't post links yet (therefore, I can't post a picture.. lel).

About the aobscan - I've lurked these scripts and I don't exactly know what to put there to change the position of my character. Sad

You types 978 into the max offset value and not the "must end with specific offsets" thing. Razz
