Unlimited money
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "skirmish" file in the "command&conquergenerals:zero-hour\data" folder. Look for the section labeled "starting cash". Under it, you can enter as much money as desired. When you start the game, and go to the skirmish set up screen. The starting money will not reflect what you entered, but once you start the game, the money should be there. Note: This trick only works for skirmishes, and not in campaigns or multi-player.
Note: For unlimited money, edit the "starting cash" line to "-1".
Hints
Dr. Thrax: Perfect attack force
As GLA Dr. Thrax, upgrade to Anthrax Gamma. After that, you will need four Battle Buses. Fill two of them with Toxin Rebels and the other two with RPG Troopers. This force will be very difficult to defeat because the Toxin Rebel buses will destroy all infantry in range, while the RPG troopers will destroy every tank, aircraft, and even most buildings very easily. Also, they can attack from behind and in front at the same time.
U.S.: Ultimate killing force
Get six Humvees with TOW missiles and the Repair Droid. Load them up with two Snipers and three Rocket Soldiers. Use your Particle Cannon to knock out the enemies defenses then wreak havoc on the rest of the base.
U.S.: Defenses
Line an area with a sequence of Patriot, then Firestorm Base, Patriot, and keep going. Then fill the Firestorm Bases with four Pathfinders. This will help you take out infantry without trouble of Flashbangs or other hazards.
Chinese: Ultimate force
Create six Emperors or Overlords, depending on the General you are playing as. If you are using Overlords, upgrade two with Bunkers and fill them with Tank Hunters, upgrade two with Propaganda Towers, and two with Gattling Cannons.
GLA: Scud attack
Play as any GLA general. You can only do this online. Get a Worker and build a Scud Storm to 0%. To do this, tell him to work on it then tell him to go to a different place. Then, click on the unbuilt Scud Storm. Hold Q then [Ctrl]. While holding those keys, click where you want the Scud Storm to hit. You can do this multiple times and you only have to wait a few seconds between launches.
Easy skirmish mode wins
Play as the U.S. laser general against the Chinese infantry general. This also works well on the eight-player maps. Sit up so that every man is for himself. On the hard level, the infantry general sends waves of soldiers who are easily mowed down by the laser turrets. Be quick to obtain the particle cannon so that you can knock out the nuclear missiles.

Yuri's symbol
Go to Skirmish mode and select the Tournament Urban map. Then, go into the main city where the tank drop is located. In the top left of the screen is a building that has a symbol that is identical to Yuri's symbol, but is missing one line.
