There is a Dump button that will create a text file with lots of useful info like: Name of your game, all of the ROM addresses it found, as well as all of the values and descriptions for each ROM address.In other words, it pulls the values from the ROM itself, instead of predetermined values.
#Sonic spinball rom hack Patch#
If you’ve already patch new values into a ROM, the next time you open that ROM, the editor will display the values you patched into it.
This is useful if you’ve already made some changes, and you want to see what values the game normally uses.
Each section has a “Show normal values” button which will display the normal/default values used in the game. There are several Help/info buttons that should answer any questions. This is really helpful if you’ve already gotten the first emerald and you want a quick way to get back up to the top section. Walking left when you first start the game is normally blocked, but with this option enabled you can walk left a bit and be warped to an upper section. There is an option that opens up a warp area in level 1. Can also adjust the maximum number of lives you can get from points (normally limited to 9 lives). Can adjust how many points it takes to get an extra life. Some adjustable options for the multi-ball games as well. Again, you can make them easier or harder to win. There are several options for the 3 bonus games. Once you hit one of the robotic arms or socks on the sides, that arm or sock will no longer block your way to the upper area of the ship. There is an option for the last boss (Robotnik) that lets you use a new way of getting access to the upper area of his spaceship. You can make them easier or harder to defeat. There are several options for the 4 different bosses in the game. You can adjust how much control you have when trying to steer Sonic around the level while he’s in a ball. Releasing Down returns gravity to normal. There’s an option that lets you reverse the gravity while playing the game by pressing Down on controller 1.
Can adjust the amount of gravity in the game (can make it higher or lower). Can adjust your starting level and lives, as well as enabling the built-in level select.
Uses pattern searching instead of static ROM addresses, which is why it works on any version.Will let you make lots of changes to the game, and will patch those changes into your ROM.Įditor will work on any version of the ROM and any region, with the exception of the very first prototype (Aug 1993). This is a ROM editor for Sonic Spinball (Genesis/Mega Drive).
