So I'm brand new to the forum and it just sucks that there's really no mods etc. to use with CivWin. So I tried out CivDos, and I'm sure it's fine if that's what you've become used to playing with, but in comparison it really sucks.
The "CivCracker.exe" looks awesome, but it's no longer being shared. Bummer. (If anyone has it, please post to this thread. I'd love to have it!)
Took out a Hex editor and started poking around. Money is stored on line 0000120 (16 bit). It changes from location to location (on the same line) depending on what's going on with the game. You basically have to go from one number to the next and test them out til something happens. I also noticed that 30,000 is the most it can go up to. Strange, considering I can change the date to anything.
So, instead of you pulling your hair out I thought I'd just provide a few saves to see if they work for you guys. I don't see why they wouldn't. They're both the same: Chieftain, Earth, American, very start of the game. See how you fair with some mega cash to start.
The one with the longer time length is a bit strange. It will prompt you to save the game as usual (after x amount of turns; not the date), but the game won't be "over" until the actual date on the screen. If you retire, you'll see that the graph will show the unmodded date you played up to, but the date on the game will be different.
30,000 money

I don't play it but probably twice a year, so if you reply on this thread I should get an email notification telling me to come on back and see what's up.
Rock on, mates. JMav
