I found the address in the save game file for fun stuff. start a game at 
level one on the difficulty of your choice. save it, edit it, and modify 
bytes starting at 0013DF. This address is the shield value, but if you 
fill it with FF and the next 40 bytes, it should change your weapons 
too. when you start playing, your shields and energy will say 0, but just 
let someone kill you. You will drop tons of goodies and then just press a 
key and go get the stuff. You will also have 254 ships left. 

So far, this only works for registered descent. Use on the shareware 
version at your own risk.
