 Posted: Sun Jan 25, 2015 4:49 pm Post subject: Array of Byte - Pointer | Camera |
 |
|
I'm losing my mind into trying to read these pointers (Very new still to them and took me while to even get these pointers).
imgur / Td0x3OD.png
Camera is set to default 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
The pointers don't add up.. Adding 4 wouldn't be 0c51ba78. How is it pointing to that with the offsets?
I'm trying to get AHK to read that value and change it on 7 other windows to that value. Thing is, the offsets are screwing it up and don't know how to point it in the right direction.
Hoping someone can shed some light on this problem.
Regards,
HaHaItsJake

The value you see on the right side of each box is the value at the given address.
So for example, 0C5C5D00+4, the value at that address is 0C51BA78. It is not adding to show the result address, it is reading from the address you give it. Also, keep in mind that numbers in Cheat Engine are hex numbers.
So that 4 and 10 are interpreted as hex. Not decimal. So 10 is really 16.

How? I thought 4 is 4, so it would be c5c5d04 how is it going to 0C51BA78? I can't get anything I'm programming to point to the pointer hex number.
All the calculators, and data from AHK, AutoIt and C# say it should be c5c5d04 o.O

The value at the address C5C5D04 is 0C51BA78.

Here is a bit more indepth explanation using your image as an example.
1. This is the base address of your pointer, this is simply used as a base line to start reading into.
2. Takes your base address and adds the given offset you gave. In this case its 4.
Internally Cheat Engine does this:
- 0x0C5C5D00 + 4 = 0x0C5C5D04
- Obtain the value of 0x0C5C5D04
- Display the resulting value: 0x0C51BA78
3. Takes your previous pointers value and adds the given offset you gave. In this case 10. (Remember the 10 here is hex!)
Internally Cheat Engine does this:
- 0x0C51BA78 + 0x10 = 0x0C51BA88
- Because there is not another pointer following this one in your offset list, Cheat Engine treats this as the end of the pointer and is where the value you want is held.
- So Cheat Engine uses this address to read your value from.
- Obtain the value of 0x0C51BA88 and display it in the manner you asked. In this case Array of Bytes (8 length).
So when you take the area you are confused about, with the 4, what you see is:
4 = the offset you want to add to the previous pointer address.
[0C5C5D00+4] is what CE is doing internally. The braces [ ] mean to obtain the value at that address.
-> 0C51BA78 is the resulting value read from the address. (The address read from was 0C5C5D00+4 in this case.)

Just to avoid confusion, 0xC51BA78 is the value AT the address 0xC5C5D04, not the value OF 0xC5C5D04 (because those are obviously not the same values).
*Just in case of language barrier or anything.

Correct, 0xC51BA78 is the value of 0xC5C5D04.

Okay, I didn't know the [] mean to obtain the value at that address. I was doing pointers for other games to see if I was getting that problem, now that I know that I'm pretty sure I can get it to work. Sorry for the confusion and stuff, great explanation atom0s.
