Well, ESE II works for my special stages, even though it didn't at first.

Prettiest one I've seen since Cyan's. I always loved Cyan's though...

Hah, he included some awesome shit in his apps. I remember hex editing Debug-O-Matic years ago and finding this text inside:

Appendix IV: Thesis on the Progression of Internal Combustion with regard.. to Ivo's Facial Hair.....During the course of this series of lectures, many questions have been raised..about the fabrication, composition, and apparent magnitude of Dr. Robotnik's..moustache. Although the majority of these have been duly examined, a number of..burning questions remain...These primarily deal with the moustache's behaivour during the sociological..confrontation ritual encountered by our spiky Hero when approaching the end of..each Zone...A startling new theory has been developed to explain this peculiar yet..essential happening...As you will be aware, Robotnik's moustache is capacious. It is believed that..he has taken advantage of its volume to conceal a joint, which qualifies as a..stress-relieving device. The smoke is sufficiently dissipated by the keratin..matrix (moustache) to be indistinguishable on a standard monitor, which is how..it got past the Sega censors...However, despite this herb's undoubtedly beneficial effect on workplace..tension, it is almost certainly to blame for the faintly ludicrous devices he..chooses to pilot. Due to Sonic's outstanding ability to smash the eggbox..creations, an unavoidable side-effect is produced.....It is often believed that moustache ignition takes place as a direct..consequence of the general petroleum conflagration caused by repeated denting..of the Egg-O-Matic (generally by Sonic). This, however, is a sad untruth...I put it to you, Mr. Chairman; where is the burning cloth? The flaming seat..fabric? The molten glasses lenses? The apparent fire is merely a cosmetic..addition, designed to distract attention from what happens to his moustache!....You see, due to a combination of fibre friction, electron transfer latency,..and oscillating capacitance backflow (and a poor quality comb), Robotnik's..moustache is naturally charged to a static potential of approaching 3.5KV...Normally, the occasional static discharges serve only to re-ignite the cargo..of illegal herbage, in case Robotnik is in danger of becoming rational...However, due to the height at which he often flies the Egg-O-Matic,..condensation commonly dampens the voluminous moustache. As Robotnik becomes..angry (as Sonic continually pounds his transport), the moustache bristles and..begins to crackle in earnest; electrolysing the water into a highly reactive..hydrogen / oxygen mix...It is generally as Robotnik reaches a peak of fury that the smouldering drugs..finally ignite the gas corona, causing a violent backdraft to blast across the..moustache. This is obviously highly unacceptable; clearly Robotnik has no..choice but to quit the field, vowing revenge on the blackener of his..moustache, and eating 10 Mars bars from the glove compartment..PKt.*..u.&......It.is b.lieve. he <osesses ...ecret formu.a.for.&... re.tora.ion, co6w.ni....gr.wth .cc.l.ra....<ath tl...... car wax.ng..luid

Yes, the last text is garbled in the EXE, too =P

EDIT: Oops, word-wrap needed, code tags removed

I remember finding that, too!! XD That's awesome. Asked Cyan about it and he said "I see you've been doing some hacking, haven't you??"

I miss Cyan..

Hey that image brings me back to the special stage I created way back called "Saxuality", and it literally had the word "SAXUALITY" written. I'd like to dig that up if I knew where to look...

Nice looking editor by the way. I'm sure it works swell!

I've got it in the local backups of the SSRG hack archive from back when I was the maintainer, I can put it online if you want.

EDIT: Actually, there's a whole bunch of stuff there (including your work) that people may want to see. I may work on putting the whole lot back up, if people want to see it.

Might be useful for archival purposes at least
