I'm playing a game called yu-gi-oh joey the passion,i can change health and other stuff easily,but i tried to change the stats of a card using the string type which i'm pretty sure is the actual value on the card because of the protection it has.

When i try to change the value it just becomes gibberish.

this looks like it's a display only address (rep movsb is an indicator for that)

a display only address is an address only used temporarily for display purposes, like converting a binary value to a string to display on the screen

also, a general tip, it's almost never a string

Hmm unfortunate any way i can find the "real" value from this?

find a number related to the card and see if you can find the other values by looking at it's memory around there

of course, since it's a cardgame, it's very likely it's hardcoded

I found that the value is stored in 2 bytes like everything in the game,but the problem is even if i change it by 1 number the game glitches out and crashes
