Is this normal?

It was a scan for the Y position of a minimap in a game.

It was scanning for 15 minutes. :O :O

If you did not use a secondary pointermap from a previous gamerun to compare against, yes. (the message even tells you so when you disable that checkbox)

Thanks.

So that means the first pointermap scan is always going to be these many gb?

[Dark Byte]

That is only if you do a scan for a address as first scan
but if you generate a pointermap first it won't

Thanks.
I tried generating pointer map. But i dont understand how to do it correctly.

So you make generate pointer map, then you make pointer scan on the same value?

Or you generate pointer map, and then exit game. Start game again, load the saved pointer map and rescan with the address of the new found address in the newly opened game?

Can you use two generated pointer maps? And then make pointer scanner?

What is the difference between generate pointer map. And pointer scanner?

They look like the same.

Sorry im noob.

Thanks.
