Offense absolutely intended, and absolutely taken that way. Just because I'm a forum admin doesn't mean you can't scream at me -- go right ahead, but what you're asking for is quite literally "how do I use the hex editor I chose?". There's a general expectation that folks doing repros kinda have a basic understanding of what it is they're doing (especially considering they're working with EPROM/EEPROM writers). I'd suggest you skim the 1900+ posts of mine to see if what I've said has "brought progress" to the forum (not to mention I hosted this site for over 15 years).
But anyway, is there some reason you didn't refer to the Hexedit help files?
http://www.hexedit.com/help/Hexedit.htmhttp://www.hexedit.com/help/cmd_misc/hid_del.htmhttp://www.hexedit.com/hex-edit-shots.htmIt looks like you just select the bytes you want to get rid of using the mouse/keyboard and press Delete. It works this way in HxD as well:
http://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/I should add that if the game you're trying to make repros of is The Flinstones - The Surprise at Dinosaur Peak! (and
it looks like it is, based on the screenshots (it doesn't appear to be The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy)), the ROM archives I've seen of this game are all questionable:
Code:
03/24/2002 07:56 393,232 Flintstones, The - The Surprise at Dinosaur Peak! (U) [!p].nes
05/27/2001 06:38 393,360 Flintstones, The - The Surprise at Dinosaur Peak! (U) [o1].nes
10/17/2003 22:25 393,232 Flintstones, The - The Surprise at Dinosaur Peak! (U) [p1][!].nes
Reference:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoodTools#Standard_codes[!p] means the ROM dump is still semi-questionable, meaning the dumper either didn't know what they were doing or they didn't have a way to verify the results, so there's not necessarily a way to guarantee the dump was 100% correct.
[o1] means the dump is faulty (overdumped by 128 bytes, but how/where the overdumping happens is unknown) -- and this one would surely be broken in some way if you were to use it, not to mention I'm not sure how an EPROM/EEPROM writer wouldn't throw a fit (either PRG or CHR would be too large vs. the actual chip size, unless the chip was larger than it needed to be).
[p1][!] means the dump is verified but it's a pirated version of the game (rather than an original) (the game starts by showing "1994" with nothing else, as in someone modified the title screen copyright and changed the year). However, the dump is verified as good (funny that).
