Ever since a recent patch for the game StarCraft II, I've been unable to find a stable pointer via the automated pointer scanning that CE offers. Whenever StarCraft II restarts, the pointers will point to completely different or invalid addresses, nothing like what I was working with prior to closing the application. This used to work, but it appears as though the developers have made this slightly harder to do.

How do I go about finding pointers which will always point to the right address?

Just as a note, what I do to get these codes is:
1. Search all value types
2. Use an in game cheat code
3. Alternate searching between 0 and 2 with entering the cheat code to end up with only one address
4. Pointer scan the address
5. Pick out 50 or so of the 40-100 thousand pointers

So, what's happening? Why is this method no longer working?

You're picking 50 of the 40-100 thousand pointers found by pointer scan?

You should narrow your scan down lower or try to find the correct base address + offset as the compiiler created it using the Find Out What Accesses function. It's unfortunately not always as easy as a pointer scan
