What is a pointer and offset?
A pointer and offset are a static address and offset that point to a specific address that shows information about the game.

Why do we want to find pointers?
Many scripts uses pointers, certain scripts need pointers and offsets in order to update them. Examples are like Unlimited Attack, DEM or DEMI and many many many more.

Okay, let's start off with the most basic pointer. Attack Counter.
1)Run your undetectable cheat engine.
2)Run your MapleStory.exe
3)Login to maplestory.
4)Stand at a spot.
5)Attack 3 times.
6)Scan the value "2" (Why 2? Because the the first attack is value "0" and not "1")
7)Attack 3 more time.
8)Scan the value "5" (Click "Next Scan and not New Scan")
9)Attack 3 more time.
10)Scan the value "8" (Click "Next Scan and not New Scan"
11)By now, you should have only 1 address.
12)Add that address into your CT. (The address should be a random dynamic address)
13)Right click the address ---> Find out what accesses to this address
14)Now, go back to maple, and walk around and get hit by monsters.
15)Some gay stuff should pop up click on all of them.
16)1 of them should be the offset. Click it. (It's quite obvious)
17)At the bottom of the box, there's something that says "The value of the pointer needed to find this address is probably ????????"
18)Take the ??????? and scan it (Click New Scan and tick the "hex" beside it"
19)The result should be the pointer you are finding.
20)Add the Pointer and the offset(found in step 16) and here, you got attack counter!
To be updated!

Thanks but this isn't so detailed and confusing at times..And you said offsets never changed?I remember that the offsets were 9c or something.But when i found the offset from this tutorial i noted that it was 08.
But when i hex the addres i get 0000044

@Threadstarter
They get that error 'cause of wrong CE settings.
