Parameter Extensions for Freezer
Scene Stealer
| Name | Scene Stealer |  |
|---|---|---|
| Author | Datel | |
| Year | 1988 | |
| Compatibility | Action Replay v5 and v6 only | |
| Known as | e.ss | |
| Note | Scene Stealer was delivered with the Action Replay Graphics Disk and is able to save certain graphic screens to disk as executable program. The supplied demo maker is able to load the stolen scene and save it with more modifications. The Scene Stealer extension could be fixed to work with Replay based extensions but requires some more attention for this to work out as it not only utilises some obscure table for managing the IO switching but also directly jumps into the cartridge ROM for a filename requester ($8057, $9018 - yieks). No nice programming here and it seems that Scene Stealer might have been assembled in parallel to the Action Replay ROM to share variables and tables. |
Replay RAM using programs
Elysium Cruel v2.9+
| Name | Elysium Cruel v2.9+ | |
|---|---|---|
| Author | Hain/Elysium | |
| Year | 1993 | |
| Compatibility | Action Replay, Nordic Power | |
| CSDb | #32682 | |
| Note | This version allows to pack several files at once, but is restricted to $0801 as start address (doh!). Unfixed currently. |
The Packer v2
| Name | The Packer v2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Author | Morris/Agony | |
| Year | 1994 | |
| Compatibility | Action Replay v4 only! - v4.0_5.0 best | |
| CSDb | #2898 | |
| Note | The Packer v2 directly uses ROM routines and even avoids the standard jump table here rendering it incompatible to many ROM versions. No fixing planned. |
VIP 3.2
| Name | VIP v3.2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Author | Kulfon/Medium Moonchild/Hitmen | |
| Year | ???? | |
| Compatibility | Action Replay, Nordic Power | |
| Note | Moonchild added code to save a loading pass by moving code to the Replay RAM. There is no check for the Action Replay or the additional RAM though. |
Replay Fast Load and Save using programs
Zipp-Link v2.0
| Name | Zipp-Link v2.0/Zipp-Link v2.0+ | |
|---|---|---|
| Author | Skyflash/Oneway Zizyphus/Oneway | |
| Year | ???? | |
| Compatibility | v2.0: Action Replay v5 and v6 only v2.0+: Action Replay, Nordic Power, Retro Replay, 1541 Ultimate | |
| Note | The patched version works using any Replay compatible with at least 8k ram - it is assumed a proper speeder is in place then. The Replay RAM is not used. |
Action Replay Cruncher v1.2
| Name | Action Replay Cruncher v1.2 (fast & slow) Based on Darksqueezer | |
|---|---|---|
| Author | Ewen Gillies/Shinjitsu Software | |
| Year | 1997 | |
| Compatibility | Any fastloader that can load save under ROM is required. | |
| Note | The extended Replay RAM is not used and not being checked for. Also the load/save vectors remain untouched, so any proper speeder should make this operational. |
