Basically when I scan the value I find the address, but every time I start a new game (not close the game) the address changes, so how do I get a pointer to something like that? Is that possible? Thank you

*Edit: I've tried using 2 different pointermap to scan the address, but still can't find the pointer

The address will usually change when starting a new game because the game is still loading new resources into different locations in memory. Even if you don't close the game, starting a new game will load new instances of objects which will take up new locations in memory.

As for getting the pointer, what variable are you looking for? I have had bad experience trying to find variables that only chance a small amount.
For instance, the pointer for an integer that would only change between 0 and 3 would be pretty difficult/impossible to locate with scans in a game that uses tons of variables and other data.

If you do have a good variable, for example, HP, then you can do a scan each time it changes and compare them. When you find a good address for that variable, then you can do the pointer scan. Find the pointer, and then you don't have to worry about where the game stores that variable in memory.

But what if it was one of those difficult variables that I mentioned? There are other ways to get the addresses/pointers depending on what game it is and what engine it is working with. Which brings me to my next question. What game is it?
