Hi! I've found the memory address of the value i want to mod, and followed the steps like in the tutorial step 6 (find who writes to that address -> search for that withing '[]' address in hex -> create pointer to the found address...), except when i do the hex search, it returns 150+ results.

So i start going throught them one by one, to find the right one (the one that points to the same value as my fist address). The problem is, many have the same value.

I'm trying to backtrace the pointers to the address that controls this value i want to mod, because when i restart the game i need to search all over again, given the address change.

How can i refine the search at this point? In the tutorial there where allways only one result while backtracing the pointers. Question

Use the pointer scanner and you will probably get tons of working pointers with it.
