This scan type makes a copy of the game's memory, so it can be used for comparison in later scans. If you don't know the value of a variable in-game, this scan type is usually the first step. Note: The initial scan can take a while depending on the game's memory usage, CPU intensity, and your PC's specifications.
Basic Scan Types
- Exact
- Scans memory for the exact value (or string) you entered.
- Bigger than
- Finds all values that are higher than the value you entered.
- Smaller than
- Finds all values that are smaller than the value you entered.
- Value between...
- Finds all values within the specified interval (inclusive).
Next Scan Only Types
The following scan types are available only when doing a 'next scan':
- Value between... at least xx%
- Finds values within a specified percentage interval compared to the last, first, or saved scan result.
- Increased
- Finds addresses where the value has increased since the previous scan.
- Increased by...
- Finds addresses where the value has increased by the specified amount.
- Increased by... at least xx%
- Finds addresses where the value has increased within the specified percentage interval.
- Decreased
- Finds addresses where the value has decreased since the previous scan.
- Decreased by...
- Finds addresses where the value has decreased by the specified amount.
- Decreased by... at least xx%
- Finds addresses where the value has decreased within the specified percentage interval.
- Changed
- Finds addresses where the value has changed since the previous scan.
- Unchanged
- Finds addresses where the value has not changed since the previous scan.
- Compare to first/saved scan
- Not a scan type itself, but allows you to compare values to those from a previously saved scan (such as the first scan or a manually saved scan).
- Compare to previous scan
- Switches comparison back to the results of the last scan (the default behavior).
- Not
- Inverts the selected scan type, returning only addresses that do NOT meet the requirement.
Tips
- Use "Exact" if you know the value.
- Use "Changed"/"Unchanged" or "Increased"/"Decreased" if you do not know the value but can change it in-game.
- Use "Compare to first/saved scan" to find values that have changed since a specific point in time.
