I'm trying to create a cheat table to modify a certain value in a game,and this value is stored in a dynamic address. I'm trying to pointerscan for the static address that it points to,but I've ran into a weird problem.

I'll do a first scan with a max value as high as 20,and it'll come up with quite a bunch of results. Then I close the game,reattach,find the new dynamic address that stores the value I want to modify,rescan for that address,and it returns 0 results. I'm positive that I don't have anything wrong with my settings;also tried scanning with and without a pointermap,with neither yielding any results.

Could it be that the game doesn't use pointers? If so,then how should I find the actual static address that holds the value I want to modify? I've found out the correct instruction that writes to the dynamic address (shown in the attachment),but am unsure what to do with it. Any help is appreciated.

Ah I see,didn't know that it had to be at least 206584. None of the tutorials I watched mentioned that. Issue is resolved now. Thanks.
