Search and replace with support for various data types

Open source plugin-framework to extend with new, custom type converters.

Memory editor (full support for 64 and 32-bit)ĭata folding, for easier overview and hiding inaccessible regionsĬonverts current data into many types, for editing and viewing It has some nice search options as well (crystaltile2 came from an earlier tool called crystalscript so kind of got those as well).ĭepending upon the table format you might have to open it in a text editor and put a final enter/line return at the end for some things.HxD is a Freeware hex, disk and memory editor, that is fast and can handle files of arbitrary size (up to 8 EiB).ĭisk editor (automatically unmounts drives as necessary when saving changes) First of all it has shiftJIS support out of the box which does a lot of things for a lot of people (click above the text decode section in the hex window), this in addition to also being one of the best tile editors out there. Translhextion is probably the main competitor to Windhex32 for the UI driven hex editor with table supportĬrystaltile2.

Some of the above do support a custom encoding but if you want the simple table files that ROM hacking stuff uses (not going to be able to simply go from one of those to abcde, atlas and cartographer or Kruptar7, TED and oriton) then you are generally out of luck with those and need a ROM hacking specific one.

You can try the ones on the download here as that will be as good a place as any to start ( ). I do have Bless installed and while I am not a fan it gets it done most of the time when I just need to analyse a file quickly for someone and I know the system well enough to have a guess at what goes. If you are on Linux then your choices are far fewer. Notepad++ and madedit and forks/reimplementations of each (Geany having much of notepad++'s functionality on Linux based stuff) do have hex options but not really worth it as a hex editor, more thing you might use if you want to edit the hex of a text file you are working on. Will probably want to change the UI to something more sensible and only loads one file at a time as far as I am aware (don't think it was added yet) but some of its binary manipulation options are right up there with the commercial stuff. Has some nice options for searching text, giving distributions (though you might have to fiddle with it), whole bunch of XVI32 looks old and kind of is, however its scripting abilities outclass even those of the paid efforts. I prefer instead a combo of three others to try to match what the likes of the ones above can do, though as HxD takes basically no storage then no harm in having it. The author did come on this site a while back looking to make some changes for ROM hackers as well which was nice Īs a ROM hacking tool though I am less convinced. HxD ( ) is my chosen one if I am sitting on a computer I don't know and just need a quick one.

In the free world I tried most, though I am a few years out on some so they could have caught up while I was not paying attention Most other paid tools I looked at were basically junk. Winhex, more of a forensics tool than something I might like for ROM hacking (and very good at the forensics thing) but only thing close that I have found to the other two. It has a very nice flip command you can go between big endian and little endian for things which makes life very nice. Has a measure of custom encoding support but was fiddly compared to a table and seemed more just for a handful of characters. In the commercial world then there are three editors that stand tall above all others If you are going to be doing custom tables you choices are fewer still but more on that a bit later.

I have done shootouts of various hex editors over the years.
