I have been using Cheat Engine for about a week now to find memory addresses and pointers in a game I play. I an then using a different language to read the addresses and such. I am stuck, however, since I can't find what the game.exe+ equals. I know that it changes every time the exe is loaded but does anyone know how cheat engine finds this? I am kinda new at coding but any help is appreciated. If anyone is feeling extra helpful, I am using c++ so if there is any existing code that would point me in the right direction that would be great!

it finds the modulebase address and then adds the +xxxx part to it
e.g gamex86.dll might be loaded at 40000000, and the notation is gamex86.dll+1234 then the address is 40001234

okay, that makes sense. Can you elaborate on how to find the modulebase address? I have tried googling it but don't seem to be finding much.
