Make A Much Better Pac-Editor!!!

1: I Want Plus Mode To Be Easier To Get To.
2: I Want To Change Level Sizes.
3: I Want All Pac-Man Games To Be Able To Access Plus Mode.
4: I Want The Title To Be Seen Easier.
5: I Want To Add More Levels.
6: I Want It To Be Easier To Add Vertical Tunnels.


So Thats What I Need. ;-)
Those aren't limitations of the editor, they are limitations of the available pacman roms. You can only hack what is possible in the game. Be happy with what you got ;)

Dude, you are really trolling it up in here. Don't bitch about something somebody provided you for free. If you want all that stuff, make it yourself. :roll:

Hi Pacfan
What you want,seems not to be possible......like Jeff told you before.
But the emulator is good enough to do some really nice Pac Man hacks for the 7800.
Have a look at Jeff´s hacks or mine.......Sure it is a lot of work to change the complete graphics and mazes.And it is lots of work,to change the title......
If you have lots of time,you could show,what you can.Changing mazes and colours is easy.
Try to make a new game,with changed graphics and intermissions.......And then you could join the contest.Unfortunately,there are no entries,until now. :?
greetings Walter

PACFAN, This is your only public warning that if you continue to span the forums with Pac-Man hacks or continue to use language like below when addressing other members you WILL be put on moderator preview and/or your posting privileges will be revoked. I strongly suggest you heed my warning. Pick a thread and leave the others alone. Members and moderators here have been more then patient and understanding. I am only sorry I didn't see this and reply earlier.
Thank you and have a good one.

Hey Chickybaby, I Just Removed More Of My Posts In This Thread. :) I Even Got Rid Of My Hacks In This Thread Because I Will Be Putting Them In My Thread. :D Here's A List Of Things That I Will NEVER Do On The Atariage Forums Ever Again. ;-) From Now On I Will Be Normal Like Everone Else. :D

1. No More Spamming
2. No More Demanding
3. No More Being Annoying To Other People
4. No More Bad Words
5. No More Being Crude Or Vulgar

So thats what I WILL do from this point forward and I will also do what I am TOLD. :)

Thanks! In my haste last night I forgot to disable the title tab for Crazy Otto. Since it doesn't have title graphics like the others it just loads garbage. I'll disable that in the future.

Is it poslw to change the sound? What can I use? I am trying here to make a Ms. Pac-2600 game for the Atari 7800, with graphics and sounds like the 2600 version. Also, I don't understand how to change maze parts! I am trying to make them look like solid blocks.

How do I change text??? My game looks really dumb if it says for example BYCICLE, when I made the bicicle sprite into a cherry so a cherry comes up, and I want it to say CHERRY, not BYCICLE.

Switch to the text tab and search for bicycle. Then change it to cherry.

Updated the first post with the latest. I think the only thing I did was update it to work with Pacman Collection - Pokey.

I'm experiencing difficulties trying to do my Jr. Pac-man hack with this program. The utility constantly draws pellets (when switching/saving levels and misses mirroring walls in nonexistent places, and mostly unless I load a severely outdated version of the current loaded .bin file, the utility refuses to load the file with some stupid and nonsensical error appearing on the bootup screen regarding some "invalid value of 162". I want to finalize the maze designs and color schemes of the hack, but I can't unless there's a way to fix the error that keeps spawning.

I'm also not a fan of being unable to change the ghost's eye and pupil colors.

Send me your .bin and I'll try to make sense of what you are describing.
