- A good, fast way to get some money:
- The first 4 bytes of the saved game
- files are your money. The max you can
- have there is FF FF FF FF (2,147,483,647)
- but I do not reccomend this, because if
- you get any income, your $$ goes negative.
- So change this to 00 00 00 7A
- (about 100,000,000 less) and you'll be safe.
- To hack the bases, use a hex editor on BASE.DAT.
- Byte 23-59 is the 36 "rooms" in your base,
- and the following 36 bytes are the days remaining.
- The two following bytes are the number of
- scientists and engineers. Put on 255 of theese,
- and you'll get quite a sum of monthly expences.
- The tactic is to edit BASE.DAT again just
- before a new month starts.
-
- Within the game_x directory, there is a file
- called liglob.dat. The 1st 4 bytes of this
- file contain the amount of cash you have,
- as a signed 32bit integer, so change the
- 1st 4 bytes with a hex editor to: "FF FF FF 7F"
- and you'll have over 2,140,000,000 cash
- Also, a little harder, if you look in the
- soldier.dat file, you'll find a list of all
- the names, (about 20 bytes for the name,
- ending with 00's), just after the name of
- each soldier, there are the stats. Changing
- the 1st 7 bytes to: "64 64 64 64 64 64 64"
- will give you're men 100 in everything except
- bravery.
- If you change the next 3 bytes after that
- to 64 64 64 as well, they will 100 Panasonic
- HexStrength and Panasonic Skill as well.
