Wizardry 5 - Heart of the Maelstrom Game Cheats

Use of a good sector editor can allow one to modify selected data 
to create a playable set of characters for Wizardry V, rather 
than the wimps one usually starts with.  This gives a player a 
chance to play with decent characters. Data resides on 
sectors 92-93-94 (a disk has sectors 0-719 decimal).

It would seem as if this is meant to be done on a floppy, 
so I'd suggest scanning for the name of your characters in text 
to find where they are and in what file, if you have this installed 
on a hard drive.  You can probably still use the offsets given, 
but you may have to just eyeball it.

#Hit Points             C7       199

Be careful.  Putting in too large a number makes the value negative.

Note:  When this happens, never enter a number greater 
than 7F FF ... FF (or FF ... FF 7F when stored in reverse) where 
the number of FF's is dependent on how big the largest value for 
the number is.  So, in the above example, you could put up to 7FFF 
for gold and 7FFFFF for experience, I think.  From the table, it 
would seem as if Hit points can go up to 32767 decimal.
