Either.

Here's how you use it with ARDS
# Use the Map Editor (version 1.8) and load in your gamesave like normal.
# Turn on "Advanced>>"
# From the "AR-DS" menu, pick "Snapshot"
# Make desired changes in the program
# Press the "Save Changes" button to go back to the main dialog
# From the "AR-DS" menu, pick "Make AR DS Code..."
# In the "AR DS Generation dialog",

* First (#1) select the game version. It must be the same as you picked in the Preparation phase [sorry, you must do this every time]
* Next (#2) give the code a new name. In this case, type in "rock_wall" (without the quotes).
* Next (#3) pick a button combo you will use later. In this case select "Up+L". That means holding the up direction pad, followed by a quick tap on the "L" left shoulder button.
* Leave everything else the way it salready is

Then move the code(s) into your ards manager

Why do you want 1.7 when you can have 1.8? That's the real question...
