Cheatengine pointer Scan tutorial
there is an easier way of find pointers but this is another way im doing this cause the game im using doesn't allow you to attach a debugger or it will crash! ok here we go first open up CE
once ce is opened click the little Computer icon

now click Open once you have your process selected then find your address's for health amo or whatever your looking for i am not showing how to find address's in this tutorial now once you find that addy double click it so it adds it to your bottom column like this

now click OK then it will pop up with a form that will ask you for a folder where it will save your files it's good to make new folder name it whatever you want then locate the folder then make a name then click save now CE will now search for pointers this can take awhile depending on how fast your pc is once it is done you will get a window that looks like this

as you can see there are alot! of pointers that we need to get out of the way to find are real pointer you need the address to change again so restart your game or kill your self whatever resets the addy now look for the address again once you find it it should look something like

now go back to your pointerscan window and click [pointer scanner]

once you clikc it you will get a window put the addy from ce into it exactly the same like this

click OK and save the scan same as the first one but put scan 1 at the end
once you do you should get alot less pointers if you dont keep resting the addy and searching untill you get down to a couple pointers like me i have 1 left that means it is it and i found the correct pointer
PS: this isn't really the pointer for my addy if it was it would show 2 as the value i just put it there to speed up my tut

now double click it it will add it to ce once you do save it and that pointer will always point to that address and it will never change
