I'm trying to find some stuff that as I've been told are stored as binaries (1 / 0). Normally I never had any issues with searching for binary values and I know that we still can find what we are looking for using normal scan. But I'm having some issues this time.
So I'm starting with unknown initial values scan as always (1 byte and 4 byte), but after "changed" and "unchanged" spam I left with zero results or results that does nothing. Are there any other reliable method to scan for binary that would guarantee I wouldn't mess up scan? What is the best value type to use in my case? I feel like spamming for unchanged is what mess up with scan, because there are might be some other values near that constantly changing reacting to world event

Setting the scan type to "Binary" might help.

Either one. AFAIK they're both pretty much the same thing, just a different base. It's like the difference between decimal and hexadecimal.

Oh. This scan is pretty slow. Don't think I can use it.
