Ok, so I have been working with Cheat engine for a little while now and feel pretty comfortable with most things, and I decided to look into the London 2012 game for the Olympics. While doing this I decided that I wanted to find pointers for things like distance on a javelin or time for a race.

I am able to find addresses that hold these values but have found it impossible to find a pointer for the addresses.

I found the address for the distance and the access and writing opcodes are the exact same part of a loop that runs as the game is played. The pointer guess is also the same for both access and writing. I have done countless number of pointer scans looking for a pointer for this address and have come up with nothing, every time the game restarts the address changes. I only hope that you guys can help me.

try a deeper (level) or wider (structsize) scan

also you can try uploading different pointermap/scandata files (after restarting the game each time and finding the address) so we can help scanning using the distributed pointerscan network (preferably 3 pointermap/scandata files)

I'd recommend to do a "find out what accesses this address".
This gives a good starting point (final offset) for pointer.
Maybe you can find the full address / pointer chain in the disassembly.
