Cheat mode:
Note: Always make a backup copy before edit a game file. Locate the 
"bgruppen.dat" file in the "\Program Files\1503 ad\data" directory. 
Open with a text editor and find the following lines:
Id: ALKOHOL
BauFirst: INFRA_STUFE_1C
Preis: 90
Bonus: 5, STEPPE|PRAERIE|DSCHUNGEL
PreisLevel: 0,5,10 
You can change the current price ("preis"), to "900" and your people will 
pay it. You can modify other goods prices. Most of this file is not in 
English.  The translation for each Id: in order is as follows:
NAHRUNG = FOOD
ALKOHOL = ALCOHOL
GEWUERZE = SPICES
HEILKRAEUTER = HERBS
KLEIDUNG = CLOTHES
LAPENOEL = LAMP OIL
LEDER = LEATHER
PELZE = FURS
SALZ = SALT
SCHMUCK = DECORATIONS
SEIDESTOFFE = SILK
STOFFE = MATERIALS
TABAKWAREN = TOBACCO GOODS
WEIN = WINE
The Preis (meaning the sale price) of any of these items can be changed 
to a higher amount in order to earn more money more quickly.
I recommend changing the first two (food and leather) Preis to 500 or higher 
because you will earn money with the first settlers since food and leather 
stands are the first to be built for the settlers of your island.

Cheats:
This is a add-on for the bgruppen file, more like a caution.  Changing the preis has 
been known to force ships into selling themselves as soon as they are made, 
crashing, lock-up, destroy buildings, (happens only if you change names, and not 
all version have been tested), and once for some reason made you a automatic 
merchant, however crash as soon as you leave the game or try to save(loading 
included, trying ctrl alt delete result in freezing). So ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP FILE 
JUST IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS. And now we come to the cheats. 
Click here to download a utility that 
replaces the annoframe.dll.
 
MAKE A BACKUP FILE FOR ANNOFRAME.DLL SO THAT YOU CAN DELETE THE NEW 
FRAME FOR THE OLD ONE JUST IN CASE THE NEW FRAME BREAKS DOWN ON YOU!
After the new frame is in the directory use these cheats.
Ctrl + T = +5 Tools 
Ctrl + H = +5 Wood 
Ctrl + Z = +5 Stone 
Ctrl + M = +5 Cash 
Alt + P = Build Everything [hehe, where have I read _that_ before**] 
Alt + F = View AI players 
Alt + C = Cloth 
Alt + Z = Brick 
Alt + K = Clothing 
Alt + N = Food 
Alt + L = Lamp Oil 
Alt + G = Spices 
Alt + A = Alcohol 
Alt + R = Tobacco 
Alt + W = Iron Ore 
Shift + C = Cheat menu 
WARNING ! Not all version use the alt button some use the ctrl button and not all 
work for all versions.  I haven't been able to test them on different versions.
For Shift+C you need a number after the cheat menu comes on, when it does use 
one of these numbers

During the transferring of the numbers from my old computer to my new one 
some the of the numbers may have been mixed up so if it doesn't work or gives 
you the wrong thing try a number below or above it it should work then email me 
so I can correct it in my database.
