Trying to make a MW2 Multiplayer DLL MOD (STEÁM VERSION)

[R3ALYZED]

HEy guys, as you already read I am trying to make a .dll file for mw2 multiplayer (Steam Version) to mod some small things. But I have a small problem: I am not able to find out the base address of the ammo value of the primary weapon. I tried it with CE but i got around 70 addresses so I went on and tricked CE to get around 7 addresses. After that i found the one, which changes the amount of the ammo but i can not find the base address of it so please help me to get further in my modded dll...
Thanks to everyone

One great way to easily get base addresses is to find the ammo address, once found add it to your table. Right click on it and press 'Do a pointer scan for this address'. Save the file somewhere you can find it back. Wait a while and you'll get a ton of baseadresses as result with all it's offsets.

Close the game, restart it. Find ammo address click again pointer scan. Cancel a new pointer scan. Open the file you scanned before and do a rescan with the new ammo address you got.

This might not be very clear. I recommend reading about pointer scan some tutorials to find out how to exactly use it.

Good luck!

so if it doesn't find it on the first go? you just retry until you find only one?

It's nearly impossible to find the right pointer on the first run, you HAVE to do it serveral times. You should even restart your Computer and do the pointer scan again. After a few scans you will likely have more than only one pointer left, just take one of them.
It's recommend to do the pointer scan on a second pc to make sure you got the right pointers(with the same file of course)

I couldn't give a better answer than that! Good luck finding your pointer!
