Increased prestige
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "character.gf" file in the "/files/activision/sf3/metaassets/serverprofiles/singleplayer" folder. Find the line that reads "// This is a characters starting prestige". Under the "[Create/0]" header, replace the value with 200000. This affects Commander mode; do this for the prestige values under the "[Create/1]" header for Captain mode and the "[Create/1]" header for hard mode.
// This is a character's starting prestige
[Create/0]
StartingPrestige = 200
[Create/1]
StartingPrestige = 100
[Create/2]
StartingPrestige = 50
