I'm new to reversing so if there's a better way to do this let me know. I have a pointer and offsets, and I'm in a structure, I'm trying to find a certain value that I wasn't able to obtain by pointer scanning. I've tried looking through many of the structures pointers, but it seems like it'd be time consuming.

Is there a way I could search through them for a specific string/value/address?

Use the structure spider. It's in the tools menu of the memory viewer.

Late reply, was busy and forgot my password

I don't understand how to use it? I havent found much info on it either, I tried messing around with it but couldnt really figure anything out.

How do I use it? I tried posting a image but it didn't work. I am trying to look for offsets of this particular value in this structure.

When searching for strings, select "String scan," check "Strings must match reg exp," enter a reg exp in the box, set base region / max level / structsize appropriately, and click the "Scan" button.

Just mess around with it. You'll learn more information faster.
