Hello guys, so I'm playing this weird card game where basically all values I found until now are 4bytes except one. Gold.

Now since all values were 4bytes I assumed gold must be 4b too but, hear me out, I can't find it at all.
My logic:

1) Value * x ; Value : x ; In order to ass a layer of protection and not show the classic equal value.

I've tried to search with this method
Unknown > Increased/Decreased

Reduced to few results, picked a calculator and tried to divide/multiply the values with the one shown in game. Nothing divided into a clean number.

2) Value + x ; Value - x

So I thought, ok maybe value isn't multiplied but it just have a random number added to it or decreased to it so it doesn't match the search.
I've tried
Unknown initial value > Increased by x > Decreased by X

No matching result.
So I thought, ok maybe they made all values 4b except the gold and so I tried the same logic with 2b, 8b, Doubles and even Float.
Nothing.

I've tried after to invert the search results so when value increases in game I tell CE that it decreases and the opposite. Nothing.

I'm asking you guys, are there any other ways to mask values? Any thoughts on how I should search for it?

In this game, every single other values I have found is 4byte and is the same in CE as in the game.

the value might not be a 4 bytes, perhaps float, double or anything else
1- you can try searching 4 bytes, but use the "Changed\Unchanged" route, and not decreased/increased filters.

2- you can try searching again with type of 'All' and do it once with the decreased/increased route, and later if still no result, do it with changed/unchanged filters

Thank you!

This trick did the job... so the real value was 4byte too, and it matched the shown gold in the game but for some weird reasons I could not detect it with Exact Value scan or Increased/Decreased.

Wonder explaining what's happening when this kind of even happens?
