Sanny Builder, or shortly SB, is a fast and powerful script editor designed for the GTA 3D game series (GTA3, VC, SA; partially LCS and VCS). It includes a dissasembler, permitting the end-user to quickly disassemble the main.scm file which contains game scripts, and a fast compiler to translate user-made scripts back into a SCM or CLEO file readable by game. Sanny Builder is made and produced by Seemann.
