Hello everybody,

I must say that i'm begginner with Cheat Engine and memory manipullation.

ATM, i have this scenario:

1 Application : "App1.exe"
2 dll for OPENGL
1 dll for logical code that's used for App1.exe

Truth is, that it's a game. The question i'm trying to address is:

I'm trying to find the HEALTH value location from the game, however:

Everytime i restart the application, the address changes, but the BASE ADDRESS of the application is always THE SAME.


For instance:

base address: address1
health value address : address2 containing a hashed value (for example 5460123 for health 123)

So, if i get the offset, i cannot write cpp code to get it every time, cus it's always changing.

Looking at ASM code, i get that [esi] is going to the register that stores the health value, so i figured that i would need to find the pointer, and so i did it.
I found the pointer, however i cannot go any further this point. Looking at cheat engine "write/access" log, no one writes or access to that pointer, so i'm guessing:

the pointer is external from that "logical DLL" mentioned above? How can i find it?


I hope i made it somehow clear to understand. Thanks in advance!
