Scan Results and Saved Address Table

Scan Results

These are the results created when a value on the console matches the search query(ies).

• Address is the address the value was found at,
• Value is initially the first value. When refresh is enabled in the preferences, this value will be updated every so often
• Previous Value is initially the first value. This value changes when you run the Next Scan, and it becomes whatever the Value was
• First Value is the value that was read and matched the query(ies) when First Scan was run. This value does not change

Double-clicking cells in the Address column (or pressing CTRL+C with rows selected) shows a dialog that lets you copy the values, optionally to the clipboard.

Double-clicking the cells in the Value column (or pressing CTRL+E with rows selected) shows a dialog that lets you change the values.

Saved Addresses

This is where you can store some scan results temporarily, or even save to/load from a file. To add entries, either select some scan results and click Add Scan Result(s), or do it manually by clicking the green plus icon which will show two dialogs letting you configure a new saved address.

Shortcuts:

• F2 or CTRL+R - Edit description
• CTRL+W - Edit Address
• CTRL+E - Edit Value
• CTRL+T - Edit Data Type
• CTRL+C - Copy absolute address (for pointer addresses, must be connected to a console for it to work)

Pressing the spacebar on selected rows toggles whether their value will be refreshed periodically (same rate as scan result refreshing)

You can also group them into folders by selecting some rows and pressing CTRL+G.

Note, in the context menu for entries, Copy Address copies the text in the address column, Copy Absolute Address supports resolving pointers.

Static and Dynamic Addresses

Static addresses are simple, they're just a fixed address value.

Dynamic or Pointer addresses allow adding offsets to dereferenced pointers in a chain.

For example in the screen shot above, 8201AD74->1758->18C4->144->118->11C, we dereference 8201AD74, add 1758, then dereference that and add 18C4, ..., Dereference last value and add 11C.

Then the final value will be the address of the useful data, in this example, the X position of an AI player controller in the BO1 single player (switches between woods and bowman on the first mission randomly when you respawn).

Caching

Dynamic addresses support caching a part of the pointer chain by appending [x] to the end, where x is how many offsets are included in the cache.

For example, I create an address 8201AD74->1758->18C4->144->118->11C[3]. This means that the first time the pointer is resolved, 8201AD74->1758->18C4->144 will be computed and stored internally as ResolvedBase. Then after that, and also every time we resolve the pointer again, it only has to resolve ResolvedBase->118->11C, which means resolving the pointer is overall quicker.

This is only recommended when you know the cacheable part will not change on the console (i.e. ResolvedBase would always resolve to the exact same value).

Saving/Loading

XML is used to serialize and deserialize saved addresses
