Hello everyone, I'm totally new in CE, and probably I'm making basic mistakes, but I've met with a problem. There are no consistent pointers to a address which is responsible for information about item ID at specified inventory slot.

There is always 1 result which ends with "BC98" (I did this process hundred of times) and I'm not sure but the offset is probably 58 (10 or 18 wont give me results after 1st scan) As I said at the beginning I am newbie, that's why I post for help, thanks for any reply. <3

replace "DOT" with "." please

Uncheck "Pointers must end with specific offsets". Maybe disabling compression in the advanced options might help.

There are some circumstances where the pointer scanner simply won't work. I don't know enough about QML to say anything definitive in this case.

One alternative could be code injection (search "injection copy"); however, in such a generic routine, that instruction probably accesses many other addresses. Working around that can be annoying (see step 9 of the CE tutorial).

It was really helpful, thank you very much! The next problem is that pointer is in Threadstack0 and I have no Idea how to implement this into script, tried some combinations, but anything won't work Sad Here is image of how I was used to use addresses from pointers in my script, when addresses were in client module

threadstack0 is a valid address in ce scripts when you use getAddress or getAddressSafe
