So I'm trying to hack Oregon Trail II (5th edition). I found the address for the money using double. It comes out right away and there's only one address. I tried the "all" type as well and it's still the same address so I'm sure that's the right one. The problem is, when I change the value and buy something, it always goes back to the original value. What am I supposed to do?

Assuming it isn't an online game (if it is give up) then perhaps you only found a temporary display variable that is only used for the display rendering, but isn't the actual value.
Try unknown initial value and then changed/unchanged to find it. (It's possible it's encrypted or uses a type not supported by default by ce like the 'currency' type)

Ok so I got a different value this time when I tried the unknown initial value thing. I got a 8-byte value of 14144645860687872 for $432.00. Then I got 14144616869658624 for $324.00 The value changes now when I change the number but I'm getting weird numbers. How do I put in a number I want in the 8-byte form?? For example what if I want $9999.99?

Experiment with it. See if freezing has ANY affect on the value

In this case, it's just a "double" containing the value 432(address-2), so most likely it's the same address you found before

Make sure you have no internet connection when buying things

--
Take the address you have, and decrease it with 2
Then change the value type to double
Then you can change it to whatever you wish
