Since editing game file isn't possible yet,i just try it with ce
But i encountered some problems while doing so.

let say i want to change Elise outfit for evie to her fight club outfit.

first i search 'Elise'(the name of the outfit in inventarory) as string.

and then i freeze the values of all the addresses(total 12 addresses,strange.) as the character changed to her fight club outfit.

But at the end when the fight is over,the character changed back to elise outfit as normal.Nothing has changed.

so i wonder how to obtain the outfit that can only be wore in specific mission or event using ce.

freezing the name will do nothing.

if you have more than 1 outfit then you can find your outfit address, by changing it and search fot unknown initial value and the type gonna be 4bytes.

once you found the address, then go to that mission, once there return back to CE and save whatever the current value for mission outfit.

complete your mission, go back to normal game play. and paste the value you copied during the mission.

i am trying to find the vlaue,i noticed 2 values that can only be scaned durning the fight club event,but then,it will change it's address when you get out the fight....strange.

edit 1 :

ok,i used the pointer scan,and slove the always changing address.
when i change the value to one of the value that i got from the fight club event,something stranges happened....

so the value isn't the model/outfit 's value,but something close.

i will keep updating my progress here,feel free to give advices

actually i dont believe it called 4bytes technically, i think 1 nibble (4 bits).

anyway, for example:
address 00001110
4 bytes (or 4bits) after would be:
address 00001114

its possible to be between 1110 and 1114 (1111/1112/1113)

also one more thing that may help you, (self experience)
when i find some IDs for in game things (weapons,grenade types, med kits typrs...etc.)
i cant write directly to that value. because i believe and think in two things, 1. theres an instruction constantly writing to that address, 2. it wont change unless some specific piece of code is executed.

anyway dont care about what i said (point 1. & 2.)
i found such easy method for cases like this.
is finding what writes to this address and overwrite the value that passed in.

it did work for other things that clothing (i never found a game that will change my outfit during a mission otherwise i would try...)

but its basically the same. 100% the same.

yes grayed because you are attached to a game, close CE and try again.

EDIT: you can change it before attaching to any process
