Finding Offsets

Well I have discovered some new (well at least to me) values of things and am making a table of them. My big question is if you have a location of something, i.e. your cursor is there, how do you find its offset?

This is in Hex edit, so if you have another editor you might have to search around.

As you can see you can either take the side offset and replace the ending zero with the bit reference number (first bit being 0, second 1, etc...) or just look at the top.

The magic number gives you the location of all the offsets when related to the index offsets.

Its something like the magic number - the index offset = the offset location.

tee hee hee, that picture is showing the warthog gun meta.

I know all that by just using stuff in that picture and the map magic.

i dont quite understand, on my hex calc im taking the magic number and subtracting a random offset from it and then searching for the number i produced and it doesn't find anything, what is it exactly i am supposed to do?

what exactly is the index offset your referring too

plan it out

first you need the magic offset

then you need the index offset which is what?

and then you find the address of the offset, what is exactly at the address... if you found the index offset arent you already there?
