Cheat Engine

[Astaroth4256]

What I want to do, is to get the player's name after client reload/whatever, (optional) or select random objects/targets in the game and get their names/other stuff, I have found the adress in cheat engine by doing "search for text" and logging on a different character (making the logged in character's name change), I have the base adress of the char* (string) but I can't seem to find the offset that could be used to calculate string's adress after client reload.
I've been searching on the internets for a while and I couldn't find anything at all about calculating adresses for strings.

This is what I have found, (couldn't link to the image)

1-When you have something like "mov e**,[eXX+YYY*Number1+Number2]" you offset is YYY*Number1+Number2 (unless the is a "lea YYY,[***]" or "add YYY,***" above), in your case the last offset is eax*2+0=0 and the offset before that seems to be 98.
2-I know the tutorial says to use "find out what *** on this address", but this is impractical for real-life scenarios. Use right click on cheat table entry->pointerscanner instead, you are musch more likely to find what you want, event if it is very slow and hdd space consuming.
3-Given your code snippet, you can try "pointer paths must end with" 0, add, 98 in the pointer scanner menu.

The search button is a good start.
The first result for "pointerscanner tutorial" too: http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=559638
