Hello,
Currently I'm working on a cheat/bot for a billard game (playray snooker). At first I tried to find an address wich contains the coordinate of a ball. But im having big trouble finding the right pointer for this address, because it is a multilevel pointer, I tried to do it manually but during some steps my search resulted in about 560 possible pointers which I needed to go through. Because of the fact that this would cause real pain in the ass I tried to use the implemented Cheatengine pointer scanner. I have never used the pointer scanner and I really don't know how to use it. I set the range to scan for static pointers from 00400000 to FFFFFFFF and the size of structure to 2048. (Again, I really don't know anything about the pointer scanner, the settings could be totally weird and pointless). I've always had about 5x results with max levels from 1 to 100. I've alwas copied all the results to the cheat table, saved it, restarted the game and there was always no address which pointed to anything except "???". I think I did something tremendously wrong because I don't think that there is a level 100 pointer in a stupid simple java game.
