So .. I'm trying to find this pointer, but the redlighted area says
Code:
>>0198b7e4 - mov [edx+ecx*4-04], ebp


What's the offset? I can't figure it out :<

it also suggest me that the pointer is "00DFB600" , if that's for any help..

Sometime when you have difficulty figuring out the offset there is a little trick just do the normal pointer procedure

search the suggested adress in 4bytes with hex ticked then you should have a green adress (if its not a multi-level pointer)

this is your base adress keep it for later

Now just use the current adress the hack have example i searched for hp and i got 1020E53 as adress and substract it with the suggested adress



example: my adress: 13100E33
suggested adress: 12167E67

so the offset is: F98FCC

then you can click add adress manually, tick pointer write the base adress and the offset you got

Good luck Razz

Another way would be: doing the calculations.

edx+ecx*4-04
basicly is
edx+#offset#

so your offset = ecx*4-04
so when ecx = 00000001
your offset will be 0
