This game is similar to Resque Raiders for
the Apple ][.  Someone sent me the following
file after my first post but certain parts to
not work.

| Armor Alley Cheat by Metzger Productions
| Call the Night Owl - (512) 836-4262.
| 
| This is an old game.  But if you still have it or like to play it, here
| is a quick cheat for the game.
| Infinite Fuel:
| Using Pctools, Norton, etc. search AA.EXE for 26 FF 4C 1A and change this
| bytes to nop by replacing them with 90 90 90 90. 
| You now have to save and search again for 26 FF 4C 1A and replace them
| with nops (90 90 90 90).  Now try the game and your fuel should never
| decrease.

The sequence was found three times in the file.  I changed
the first two as directed and it appeared to work.

| Infinite Money:
| Search for 26 29 44 16 4F 75 09 and change the first five  
| bytes to 90 90 90 90 90.

This worked except it looks like the computer
gets infinite money too.

| Infinite Bombs:
| Search for 26 FF 4D 1E E9 C9 02 and change the first four bytes to 90 90
| 90 90.

I could not find this sequence.

| Infinite Missles: 
| Search for 26 FF 4D 20 26 C7 45 and change the first four bytes to 90 90
| 90 90.

I could not find this sequence.

| Infinite Helocopters:
| Search for 26 29 45 14 C4 5E F8 and change the first four bytes to 90 90
| 90 90.

This worked.

| Now you should be able to fight anything.  Remember to use a copy and not
| the original program when editing.  All disclaimers apply. 
| If you have other cheats, new or old, or would like to get one done send
| me mail.
| ma...@wichita.sps.mot.com

perhaps I have a slightly different release?  Does
anyone have any different cheats?  Resque raiders had
teleportation keys to move instantly to either end
or the middle of the field.

I found that playing with just infinite helecopters
makes it more winnable and more fair cause
the computer gets as many as it wants and it
likes to crash into your chopper on occasion..
