Hello again!

I'm having a bit of trouble with a pointer. It seems no matter what pointers I use, there is always other stuff writing to the pointer sometimes other than the address that I need.

The address is for the position of the player. When moving around, the pointer is correct 90% of the time, but then it changes to something completely different sometimes, which messes things up.

The last part of the address is always the same, so if I could just somehow check that the end of the address found by the pointer is "88", then I'd be set.

Use injection.

I'm guessing it's a threadstack address? Try to find some base address inside a module instead. Note that if you're playing on something that's either emulated or interpreted (i.e. flash, java, .net, etc.), then you probably won't ever find a good static pointer. Instead, just hook some instruction that solely accesses that address and copy it to a registered symbol.

If you really want to use that pointer, then you could use a Lua script to make a timer that automatically checks the last byte of the end address of the pointer path. Then just write to the address field of a memory record object if it's 88.

No, that's just to get you a reliable reference to the address so that you don't have to find it every time you restart the game. Once you have that, you can do whatever you want with it. See the "injection copies" section of this topic to learn more.
