Hello, gamehackers!

I need a little knowledge base on the subject "Manual stack trace config window".

I guess I need like lock and freeze "all" OR "some values" to hit stack memory when

ESP=="0xSomeGameAddress" &&
EBP=="0xSomeGameAddress" &&
EIP =="0xSomeGameAddress"

with some new alloc mem.

"Manual stack trace config" can help me or not?

What is "Original base"?
What is "New copy"?
What is "Use shadow copy"?

Thanks!

The manual stacktrace is if you have a arbitrary stack location and wish to trace it. (e.g not at the current top of the thread it belongs to)

The use shadow copy is used when you've made a copy of the stack
Because stack pointers point to the original stack, this will cause it to internally handle a reference to the original base to be converted to a reference to the new copy

so if you made a copy of the stack that was originally at 008f0000 and put it at 10000000 and do a stacktrace. It'll convert fields in the stack that reference 008f0000->stacksize to 10000000->stacksize

This 'shadow' behavior is also available in the structure spider

(And that is why the "lock" function in structure dissect also shows the shadow copy location when you rightclick the address)
