I have been trying to learn AutoIt and how to work with memory lately but I am having issues in setting a pointer to an offset address.

Is it possible for an offset to have a decimal? If so how can I manually point to it?

I have tried different ways of calculating the offset but I am not sure if I am correct or if I am doing something wrong..

Based on the picture i uploaded these are my calculations (I have tried following some examples I found). If I am wrong, please tell me a step by step example!

esi + eax * 8 + D8 = edx
esi = (edx-eax (17e7) -d8 (170f) )/8 (2e1.e)

2e1.e

Thank you! Smile

This instruction will write the value stored in edx to the address that esi+eax*8+d8 points to

The offset in this case is 2*8+d8=10+d8=e8

wow lol that confused me a bit! ok lets go slowly...

004E7E44 will move [esi+eax*8+DC] into ecx.

ESI being the pointer, and [EAX * 8 + DC] the off set.

The offset would be - EC

Thank you! Smile

I have been trying to get the value of HP and Mana of a game called Tales of Pirates. However when I calculate the off set, it either returns a random value or a "???".

Having these results, is there a way to prevent memory hacking when developing such applications? Like encapsulation? or maybe keeping the variables private?
