Hi,

I have a list of addresses (about 50) that I want to monitor for write access. The documentation says that the fourth argument (0) should set the method to software:

[Dark Byte]

try breakpointmethod 2 (exception)

but it's better to find the code that writes to those instructiond and then break on those code addresses with an execute bp, and on breakpoint check if the accessed address is in the list

I tried the exception method but the game crashed when adding BPs to certain addresses. One of those addresses is from a module and easy to filter out, but I couldn't figure out what was special about the other addresses.

But the execute breakpoint works great, I don't even have to scan for all the addresses since the code address doesn't change at all.
Way more straightforward than I thought, code just sounded more complicated than data.

Thanks for the help!
