Finding the address of a rare item
Posted: Fri Mar 23, 2018 5:20 am
My case:
Lets say you're playing this game and obtained this incredibly rare item thanks to RNG. Said item is consumable. You use it, it's gone until you gain it back when RNGesus decides to. You want more of this item, but you only have one. Trying to get another one will probably take days to get it to drop again. Thankfully this game lets you buy back the item when you sell it. You hook up CE to the game, and start buying and selling the rare item, hopefully finding that address that's changing value. Bad news: you discovered that when the item reaches 0 value, the address becomes useless. Getting back the item gives it a different address than before. Oh right, you learned how to find pointers with CE thanks to the CE tutorial. Oh no, it turns out it's using multilevel pointers and you're too stupid to understand how to find multilevel pointers on this scale. Because of how many addresses comes up in CE, you attempted but failed to find the correct address, and it feels like they're all leading you to dead ends.
What do you do?
Your experience:
Ever dealt with a time where you wanted to hack the value of a rare item? Given how different each game is programmed, what game was it, what did you do, and how difficult was it?
