I can find millions of pointers on first scan, but when I restart the game and try scanning for the new offset it comes back with 0 results. Anyone know how to fix?

First first the address you're looking for, and then do a "generate pointermap"

then restart the game and find the value you're looking for again.
Then do a pointerscan for that address, but in the config load the previously loaded pointermap and select/type in the old address
(more info : https://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=602561 )

then when it finds nothing:
1: repeat and increase the level by one
2: if still nothing, then increase structsize by 1024
3: if still nothing, increase the max different offsets per node, or even just disable it
and if nothing, go back to 1 until it starts finding things

Also, if it's an emulator or webbrowser, then stop. It's not going to work

Still didn't work. Tried up to 10239 for the Max Offset Value, 7 Max Level and 10 Node. I've found 3 other pointers for the game, just can't find any around these values I'm trying.

maybe the game dynamically allocate heap for addresses, if you can verify this then ce have heap pointers option to check.

Doing a scan with the heap option on returns 0 results from first scan.

Ya that's what I ended up doing. Just wanted to know why I couldn't find a pointer for them Sad
