Hey,

I got a question about CheatEngine:
- How does CheatEngine freeze a value? Is it a loop overwriting the value, is there a way to make the memory read-only or is it something else?

It is a loop that continuesly overwrites the memory with the frozen value
You can make it readonly, but then the cpu will start raising access violation errors, which you will have to capture. and you can only make memory read only in a region of 4096 bytes, so it'll also freeze all other addresses in that region.
Of course, you can add a filter in there if you do the accessviolation capture, but it'll be VERY slow.

Best thing you can do is find all the code that writes to that address and remove them or rewrite them so they don't decrease that specific address
