Esoteria 1

Saved game files are written to folders with the same name as that
given in the saved game slot in the path SAVEGAME\SINGLE under the
folder that Esoteria3 was installed into. For instance, if a saved
game is named SAVE1 and Esoteria3 was installed into C:\ESOTERIA,
then the files for that saved game will be
in C:\ESOTERIA\SAVEGAME\SINGLE\SAVE1. The file PLAYER.E3 in this
folder holds the values for health and number of shots for the weapons.

Player health is located at hex positions 312 and 313 *and* 316 and 317.
The number of shots for the A.R.C. is at hex 276 and 277.
The number of shots for the Machine Gun is at hex 27A and 27B.
The number of shots for the Gyrex Cannon is at hex 27E and 27F.
The number of shots for the Missiles is at hex 282 and 283.
The number of shots for the Homing Missiles is at hex 286 and 287.
The number of shots for the Time Bombs is at hex 28A and 28B.
The number of shots for the Trigger Bombs is at hex 28E and 28F.
The number of shots for the V-Bombs is at hex 292 and 293.

All of these bytes can be maxed to hex FF.

Note: If the above bytes are maxed out with hex FF's, the game
will display normal-looking values, but when they get down to zero,
they will begin a new cycle. For instance, Homing Missiles display 031.
Once they reach 0, they will re-display 031.

To enable all the weapons, change the bytes from hex 256 through
hex 269 to 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 02 00 00 00.
