Remember to backup file before changing
Open

C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\My Games or just navagate to your
"My Documents" folder from the start menu.) with notepad or a
similar text editor and change the following line:
DIFFICULTY_SCALE =
1.00

DIFFICULTY_SCALE = 0.00
Find Hidden jumps and
bases
When you are looking for hidden jump holes to other systems, turn
on your Nav Map, then select the "Show Patrols" map. The lines that appear show
popular paths that the AI ships use. Almost any path that stretches out beyond
the normal trade-lane traffic of a star system will lead to a hidden starport or
even a hidden jump hole. Fly out to where the line leads to and turn on the
"Solars" option on your targeting computer. You will usually find a place of
interest. However, in places with reduced sensor ranges you will probably have
to rely on visually looking for something. Also, to find all the paths, make
sure to look at the "neutral", "hostile" and "friendly" paths in the patrol
paths map. Be wary of stumbling upon an enemy's base.
No wait
for Jump Gates
When you try to enter a jump gate and someone else is in
front of you, just enter a formation with the person heading in and there is no
line, although you do lose the formation and slide sideways right before going
in it works.
Hidden Jump gate!
First get the PerfOptions cheat on (at 0.00) then fly into ZONE 21,
and search g5 for a jumpgate. I don't know if the nav map will find it so you
will have to find it visually.
Note - the jumpgate is to the Alaska System.
Hidden System
This hint should only be attempted
by high level pilots. First, fly to the Ommicron Gamma system. This system is
completely controlled by the Corsairs, and contains their home planet, so be
wary.
First enter omega 3 by whatever system is available first - cambridge
or omega 7.
once in omega 3 find the omega 5 jump hole in sector 7D.
in
omega 5 find the omega 41 jump hole in sector 5E.
in omega 41 there will be a
jump hole titled "Unknown Jumphole" in sector 2f go through it.
when in
the unknown system there are two planets.
1)Primus in sector 5C (this is
controlled by monkeys)
2)Gammu in sector 6F (this is controlled by
robots)
Surviving
fights
Asteroids and space stations are invulnerable. It doesn't matter
what you hit them with, they'll just soak it all up. Try using space stations
and asteroid fields as cover to hide from the lasers until your shields restore
themselves.
Beating Hovis -
Mission Race
Really
isn't that hard and you can
beat him with any ship, I did it with the freighter from britonia, took me two
try's, I bounced off a ring the first time, and of course lost that one. All you
need to do is hold down your thrusters when you hit start, and then go straight
for cruise engines, he will probably get ahead of you in the beginning, but he
makes some wide turns in the last quarter, if you on his rear and take it to the
inside you can beat him.
Finished The Game???
At the end of the game you can do what ever you want but
I suggest you get to a really high level then gain a good rep towards corsairs then go to planet create in omicron gamma system and buy the best ship in the game the TITAN. You can have any weapons you want on it.
Junker Base
In the trial version (this might be
true for the full version as well) there is a secret junker base called Rochester base. You can buy barrager guns and turrets here as
well as commodities like gold, silver, niobium etc which are not present on
other planets or bases. The base is located in sector 3C. Make sure you are at
least neutral to the junkers before docking. If you are friendly towards them
you could accept jobs as well.
