Help with finding a pointer

[tonka4ok]

Hey guys, I've been trying to find the static address for the nitrous in need for speed most wanted 2. But as I go up in pointers manually, on the second pointer I get an instruction without offset (mov ebx, cbx etc.) so I can't trace further. I also tried pointerscan for the value with level 7 and max offset 7000 and still on second pointer scan - 0 results.. I'm kinda new tell me if I missed something and I will provide more info.

I get an instruction without offset (mov ebx, cbx etc.) so I can't trace further

if it's something like mov ebx, [eax] then the offset is 0 eg. mov ebx, [eax+0] if it's more like mov ebx, eax then look up in the code to see where eax got it's value.

Generally I prefer using assembly scripts over pointers however so I don't know too much about working with pointers when it's hard to track them down, I'd just hook something that uses it and copy the address to some memory if nothing else.

You mean you trace down the changes from the value's memory region without looking for pointers ?
