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.

Parameter Extensions for Replay based Freezers

Scene Stealer

Name Scene StealerScene Stealer Screenshot
Author Datel
Year 1988
Compatibility Action Replay v5 and v6 only
Known as e.ss
e.scene stealer
Note Scene Stealer was delivered with the Action Replay Graphics Disk and is able to save graphic screens and charsets to disk as executable program. The supplied demo maker is able to load the stolen scenes and charsets and save it with additional 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.


Action RMS v1/v2

Name Action RMS v1.0 and v2.0Action RMS Screenshot
Author Moog
Year 199?
Compatibility Action Replay, Nordic Power, Retro Replay, 1541 Ultimate
Known as e.arms v2.0

Note Action RMS searches the memory for music player patterns and displays start address and identified music routine. It does NOT save the music! :)


Bitmap-Saver

Name Bitmap-SaverBitmap-Saver Screenshot
Author TSD/Anubis
Year 199?
Compatibility Action Replay, Nordic Power, Retro Replay, 1541 Ultimate
Known as e.bitmap-saver
Note Saveland on the CyberpunX Replay freezer handles the same task.
The current freeze state is not taken as a preset when starting the extension. Setting options on the menu, testing them and changing them back in the menu is quite unintuitive as well.


Bmp Saver v0.1

Name Bmp Saver v0.1Bmp Saver Screenshot
Author Reiter/Apidya
Year 1998
Compatibility Action Replay, Nordic Power, Retro Replay, 1541 Ultimate
Known as e.bmp saver
Note Saveland on the CyberpunX Replay freezer handles the same task.

Year 1999-07-17
Compatibility Action Replay, Nordic Power, Retro Replay, 1541 Ultimate
Known as e.+60k<>freezer and e.+60k<>ram

Replay RAM using programs

Elysium Cruel v2.9+

Name Elysium Cruel v2.9+Elysium Crueler Screenshot
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 v2The Packer v2 Screenshot
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 v3.2VIP v3.2 Screenshot
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+Zipp-Link v2.0+ Screenshot
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		Action Replay Cruncher Screenshot
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.
