I know how to find exact values easily and unknown ones as well. However, item codes are mostly giant numbers and if I only have 1 of an item, its a pain to find it. In fact, I don't find it. Any tips on how to easily find item codes if I only have 1 item?

First, find the address of any item that has the most value,
the higher the value,the easier to get,
if you have only 1 item,then get more item,
even if you get an address for an item, you can get the address of others item by finding the relation of the address or simply find what access the address and then what's the intruction access.

It's all depend on how the game process the data,
finding the address of the variable is the most easiest and difficult to accomplish.

If you're lucky, the item ID will be within the same address space as the item quantity.
Find the base structure address and scope around in memory viewer for something.
If you must, just start changing values randomly to see what happens.

Ok so i found the address to one of the items. do I check its region and do trial and error?

it's depend on the game,you can simply use debugger to find out what access the address then, find out what the intruction access.
if the insruction is only processessing the item's address,then you're in luck as it would make finding and changing the value easier as you can simply make code injection/cave to change the value or find the address.

or

findind the relation of the item address like some game,
example:
your item address is 034D2F12,it's the third slot item,if you want to find the second slot item's address,you can find the difference between the address,such as minus or plus the 034D2F12 with 4 or C or 8 or 2 to reach the address of the second slot item's address,then if you got it right such that, the difference between the item's address is 4 then,all the gap between the item address is 4.

there are some games that stored the item address like this:
pointer2->pointer1->item address
the item address have a very wide gap but the pointer1 has narrow gap such that the difference between the gap is 8,then you can make the pointer for the item.

you just have to grasp the pattern of the game as some game have the same pattern.
