Yeah, 1.2.42 put a lot of protection into such variables. If you can't link your account back to 1.2.33, just make a new one (in 1.2.33 you can only get your gem to 920B I believe, so if you want your gem in other amount, make some in 1.2.22). In 1.2.42 (and 1.2.47), the ones I can mess with are dmg/toughness/movement speed and gold modifiers. So basically, you can still get gold in 1.2.42.
920443943 does not help much. You can level CP faster by freezing the exp bar in 1.2.33 (and tbh the bugged ring sells at a ridiculous amount of money, so I don't recommend this).
