Wing Commander 3
Cheat:

While in spaceflight mode you can press [ALT]+[O] to access a

special screen. From here, it's easy to help yourself to all sorts of

advantages: you can make your ship invulnerable; deactivate the

collision detection and alter the skill level, detail level, video

mode and audio setup.



Tips:



Enemy Craft:

Darket (light fighter):

----------------------

The Darket is very easy to kill. When attacking a group of them,

you may be able to destroy one or more on your first attack run; in a

faster craft, lure them into a turning battle. Flying at about 300kps

should allow you to turn harder than him and hit him with deflection

shots. His shields are weak and should fail quickly. In a heavy

fighter, fly slowly and lure him into a chicken run.



Dralthi 4 (medium fighter):

--------------------------

The Dralthi is even easier to destroy. Most craft, with the

exception of the longbow, should have no problem tailing it, due to

its slow rate of turn. However, light fighters such as the Arrow

should beware of its rear gun.



Paktahn (bomber):

----------------

Difficult to destroy. This is faster that you might expect and

extremely well armed. However, it is remarkably easy to tail, and its

rear gun is not as effective as that of the Vaktoh.



Strakha (stealth fighter):

-------------------------

Quite hard to destroy. Although the craft itself is not

particularly good, its cloaking device renders it almost impossible to

tail. The best way to destroy it is simply to wait until it un-cloaks

itself in front of your ship, which it often does. Remember, you can

hit the Strakha while it's cloaked, and the flash from its shields

should reveal where it is.



Sorthak (heavy fighter):

-----------------------

Very hard to destroy. The Sorthak is not encountered until later

on in the game, and, when you see it, it is usually attacking capital

ships. Even so, it can be a deadly opponent. To avoid its heavy

firepower, attack at high speed and from a variety of angles.



Asteroid fighter (heavy fighter):

--------------------------------

Fast, well armed, and very difficult to destroy. When fighting

one, make sure that the wingman is attacking your target. Fortunately,

its shields are fairly weak.



Tanker:

------

Destroy its weak spots before pulling round behind it for the

kill. Flying inside the ship is too dangerous by far.



Corvette:

--------

Well armed and armoured. If possible, torpedo it; otherwise, fire

a few missiles and concentrate on the weakened area of its shields.



Larger Ships:

------------

Larger ships, such as cruisers and carriers, can survive a direct

torpedo hit. Should this occur, simply concentrate all your fire on

the damaged area.



Hack:



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.
