Scramble Editor for the 7800

[jwierer]

Here is an editor I created a while back. It's the same one that was used to create this Super Cobra Hack. It allows you to edit the levels, graphics, colors, text, etc... I wrote it for the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 so it works fine on my Windows 7 machine, but for those of you with older operating systems you may need to upgrade your version of .NET to use it. I may add some detailed instructions later, but I think most folks will be able to figure it out.

 

Here is the download

ScrambleEd1.0.zip

and here are some screenshots.

 

 

Enjoy,

Jeff

While it is fun to play on an emulator. If I can't play it on the real thing it kind of looses it's luster.

Well thank you ! I am not the best at this type of thing and I cannot say when I might produce something but I thank you for your efforts! I am also going to share this thread in my Classic Gaming Group on facebook, who knows? Someone there might make use of it.

Been trying to use this tool for some time now. I keep getting the problem that when I save out the ROM, when I load it back it it never decodes and gives a Microsoft .NET Framework unhandled exception error.

 

When I look at the level data exported, any level I've touched contains only FF - nothing more.

 

"Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.

parameter name: toExclusive.

 

************** Exception Text **************

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.

Can you post the steps you're taking to reproduce the error?

I have not been able to assign colors to left or right click for some reason.

@sh3-rg. If you make any change and save it you get that error? If you post the steps you are taking that don't work, I can test it in the debugger.

Gah! Never mind. My mouse sucks.
