Modify Starting Cash

You can edit the dark.cfg file and add the line "cash_bonus n" N represents the amount of cash added to the beginning of a mission.

Skip to Next Mission

Press [CTRL] + [ALT] + [SHIFT] + [END] to skip to the next mission.

Increase Cash (Bug Exploitation)

Just before completing the mission, do a save or quicksave. Complete the mission and save it in a different save slot. Reload your last save or quicksave before completing the mission. Complete the mission again. The statistics screen should now have ADDED TOGETHER the loot from BOTH mission completions. Apparently, the variable which stores treasure amount at the end of the mission is not being cleared between loads. You can keep doing this until you have all the cash you need to buy out the store at the loadout screen for the mission immediately following.

Landing softly

Press [Crouch] before landing onto a surface and the sound produced will be softer.

Press [Esc] while falling from a high location before hitting the ground. Although your character may grunt, he will not take any damage.

More money

Save the game immediately before completing a mission. Complete the mission as usual, and save the game in a different save position. Reload save that was made before the mission was completed. Complete the mission again. The statistics screen will combine the money from both missions. Repeat this to earn as much as needed.
