Hex Cheats
Some Useful Cheats
Using a hex editor, look for offset ...018. The hex number is set up in the standard savegame way, with two digits in pairs from lowest to higest place (i.e., if you have 6000 credits, that's 1770 in hexidecimal, and that would be laid out like this" 70 17 00" .. etc.). Then, you can overwrite this offset and modify the amount of credits you have. If you use FF FF, this translates into 65,535 credits.
Hex Ship Cheat
If you don't want to type in the cheat code for ships, but still want to fly the ship of your choice in either campaign, use a hex editor and look for the following offsets. Then, set that offset to "01".
