1. Locate the hard drive saved game directory, doubtless called WC3.
2. Using a hex editor such as PC Tools etc, edit the saved mission you wish to
hack. Saved games are saved under files with .WSG extension, and the first saved
game is listed as 00000000.WSG (assuming, that is, that you have saved a game
first). Each subsequent saved game needs to be edited prior to flying the
mission if you wish to increase or otherwise alter the weapons. Using the hack,
up to 255 weapons can be carried in each hardpoint, making the game more even on
harder settings.
Change the OFFSET/HEX (below) to the values listed under 'Weapons' (below) to
change the selected weapon.
