Now that you mention it, that double-checkmark does look familar. Anyways,
anyone figured out how to hack the Tyrian Save games yet? :-) I tried
hacking it for money with a hex editor. Say I had 9750 cred's, i'd look for
16 26(hex) in tyrian.sav and then change it. Well I couldnt find 16 26, so
im guessing it stores the credit's in some odd-ball way.
