Already answered in your other post..

Dynamic Memory Allocation...
In English: The address changes hence making your little code useless and less you "un-"DMA it...

For future stupid questions please refer to the lovely webiste: http://www.google.com

In noob terms... its the games way of preventing you from hacking it by switching around its memory. DMA was invented to stop you from tearing apart their game, but you can quite easily get past it by finding and address to "point" to wherever your code is.

Hence the term "Pointer Address" or just the Pointer.

There's different forms such as a base pointer and a multiple pointer, most codes have a single base pointer in which case you can easily non-dma the code, however some more complex DMA is an example of Kills in SFDM, where there are more than 2 base pointers in which csae you have to write a subroutine.
