Sorry in advance if this is the wrong category for this kind of thing.
I'm not asking for you to do this for me in a certain game,
just asking how I would theoretically do this given how the game is set up.
1. The item in question is non stack-able so if i have two instead of it stacking it will just show another item next to it in my inventory.
2. There is a wiki page for this game but it does not provide item ID numbers so no way of easily searching for items this way. (im sure they all have unique id #'s but they are not publicly given out for obvious reasons.)
3. I can search for the Item name and the item description as a string (with Unicode checked idk what it means but it doesn't find anything if Unicode is off i luckily was just messing around and found out it helps) and find the two codes that match together. (im sure knowing this somehow i can track down the item id but im not sure.)
4. if i choose an address and try to see what writes or accesses the thing the debugger opens and it runs but the first thing i do in the game it freezes and shuts down the game like its not responding or something. I thought it was my PC but i tried it also on my brothers which is much better but it still does this so maybe the game has protection from debuggers ( i tried that setting to help hide the debugger and whatever that thing is in the extra menus checked all of those and it still changes nothing.)
Sorry its so long, but can I get some help please
I want to know fancy tricks or maybe even longer methods to help me duplicate these items. or maybe if I can instead of dupe, CREATE the item from a less valuable item.

Given that you didn't state the game name I'm going to assume its an online game. In most cases duplication involves either one of two things:
1.) Lag
2.) Exploit
Altering memory is most likely not going to allow you to dupe the item unless the game is extremely poorly coded.
However one way to find the item id would be to use the first slot in your inventory. A rough run-down of what you could try:
- Empty your inventory and scan for 0
- Place an item in the first slot, scan for changed value.
- Remove the item and rescan for 0.
- Repeat til you have a solid address.
Keep in mind 0 might not be the default value for the item id of the slot, and they might not even store based on item ids.
Just a concept that work for a handful of games. If 0 doesn't work as the base, search for unknown instead. _________________
