The dword and double SHOULD NOT MATCH...
If dword = 445 and gold is 25
25,000,025 gold would give you 25,000,445 dword.
Pay attention to the value checks....
For me I didn't even have to bother, edit double value only synced fine.
When you load game, I think you have 3 gold values.
Starting, current and spent.
What I was explaining to do was finding the "starting" amount and modify that. What ends up happening, you try to spend the gold and save and quit. What you bought does not save, but your start gold will be the hacked amount.
