I've been trying to modify a value of a character, but each time I modify the value I found, it doesn't update and instead changes back to whatever value it was before. I tried replacing the pointer with one that doesn't do anything to prevent the value from changing back and it ended up crashing the game. Any idea how I can tackle this issue?

Edit: I figured out what went wrong. I forgot to press Stop and Exit before returning to my game :p

Edit 2: It broke everything in the game and still didn't give me the desired result.

If changing a value doesn't work, changing a pointer to the value won't work either.
Changing code that accesses the value almost certainly won't work too.

You didn't find the right value. If it's an online game, give up- you can't find the right value.
Otherwise, try unknown initial value and changed / unchanged value scans.

I think it's some kind of obfuscation. I tried searching for values of all types, 2, 4, float and double and nothing works. I tried searching for unknown initial values and even after 10 scans, I'm still left with 5k values to filter out.
It's an offline singleplayer game so idk what's the issue here.
