Make Hacks???

I know this sounds like the choobiest questin ever, but I am starting to get into c++ and I am really curious, how do you use c++ knowledge to make public hacks?
Are there any tutorials out there??
For example how does Dave and (Dare I say it Gordon) make their pubs?
Do they use like MHS to find pointers and then use c++ to compile the pointers into trainers.
I wish dave could answer this.
Anyways, suggestions on programs and links to tutorials would be nice.
USER1 could probably help with suggestions too cause he is a genius.
