Cheats


 During space flight press [Alt][N] to get to the nav screen,
 now type [F] and now you have the following codes:

 NO TALENT   Invincibility
 REP ME UP   Repairs weapons and shields
 PETY PETY   Refills afterburner fuel
 CHILL OUT   Cools laser temperature
 NAPALM      Unlimited nukes

 To confirm press [Enter]. These codes last until you land again.

HexCheats:

 Unfortunately all important hex positions vary from game to game.
 Because of this here is a more detailed instruction how to hex
 cheat in this game.

 The game will be saved to the files GAME00.IFF to GAME09.IFF
 corresponding with the save slot in the game.

 Example: How to find the weapons?

 Save the game in two different slots with two different weapon
 configurations. Two saved games GAME00.IFF and GAME01.IFF
 will be written to harddisk. Now MS-DOS gives us a tool called
 FC that compares files.
 FC /B GAME00.IFF GAME01.IFF
 (the parameter /B is for the binary comparisson)

 You now get a list of bytes that are different in both savegames.
 Because of the fact that the ship has five weapons there should be
 at least five positions that are different in the two savegames.
 (there are some more in fact, e.g. the credits etc). You should be
 able to identify the weapons, due to the fact that you only used
 one category of weapons in the game before.

 Now load the savegame into the hexeditor and you can change the
 identified position with the following values:

 00    Stream Laser
 01    Stream Laser Mk II
 02    Volt Laser
 03    Flux Beam
 04    Flux Beam Mk II
 05    Masse Ionen Kanone
 06    Kraven Mk IV Laser
 07    Weapon of the freighter
 08    Weapon of the mil. destroyer

 Example: How to find the credits?

 It's always the same. Convert the amount of credits you have
 to its hex value and look for that numbers in the savegame with
 the hex editor. (Attention: you have to look for the turned value,
 that means that you have look for 7F 04 if your real value is
 04 7F).
 The credits should be twice in the savegame. Change both values
 to FF FF FF and Lev will have about 18 mio...
