[solved] c++/asm noob question

[moyo]

im starting to write very basic cheats and im stuck at findpattern.

i have found my ammo address (nonstatic) and came to

dec esi

when i get the address with findpattern of this sig its the right one but i can only memcpy new code to that addr. how can i get the value of esi?
so what i want to do is finding the value of esi now



thats a screen what i have done so far. a dll who spits out the findpattern'd addr (you can see its the right one)
but how can i get the address of esi like cheat engine does on that pic

thanks in advance,
noobmoyo

Hmm, I think that cheat engine can't do that... try to do it in OllyDbg and use first pattern u find

Re: c++/asm noob question

thank you but cheat engine does on the screen. it shows the address of esi and this addy holds the value of my ammo.
now im findpattering (:D) the dec esi. but i dont know how to continue then D:

Re: c++/asm noob question

found a solution:
put a detour at addy and use inline asm to get the addy from stack then move it to your pointer and your done -_-
if your a badass you can also retour it again naow
