Greeting Privateers.
I made this guide, because i found one of the missions to be very hard, so i cheated with invulnerable cheat and completed the mission, but i found out that one always fails a mission one has cheated in it. I didn't wanna redo the mission because it was long. Now i have found a way to continue plot even though i cheated.

I used a hex editor and change some values in my save file. This guide will show you 2 things:
1: Change the status of your current mission.
2: Set the amount of cash you have in the game.

The guide is in the 4 JPEG files. (I would have put it in a pdf, but gog doens't allow it)
Have fun with it :)

Tried this and it worked perfectly - thanks. One of the mapping run in Deltas and I died more than 20 times. Very happy - thanks westkane!

Your welcome :)

Hi guys, I would like to share this post with a detailed step by step guide, and a simple but effective save editing program (PREDIT) that permits to do pretty much anything about missions (and else) without the hassle of Hex editing.
