I'd like to change a code that shows an icon on the screen in a game that uses OpenGL (not sure if it uses it for 2D).

My idea was to find RGB values of that icon somewhere in memory but I couldn't find anything (tried RGB & BGR).

Is it because it is stored in video memory or there might be another reason?

Thank you!

Include mem_mapped memory in settings->scansettings

Also include non writable memory when scanning

How do I do that? Choose option "Don't care if it's writable or not"? And which one is that? I have this checkbox checked, empty and with a small box in the middle - which is one "grey"?

Right click below the memory scan options editboxes and choose "Preset: Scan All Memory"

Thank you, unfortunately it didn't help. I see the image on the screen but I can't find it in memory...
