yea UltraEdit-32 is also a very nice hex edtior, however if your doing a translation or a hack of the script in a game probably Translhextion best. | |||

Originally posted by Datahax Wrong. Translhextion is big, clunky, buggy, can't search properly, has a dump format that makes me want to gouge my eyes out and eat brains, and is in general a piece of trash. Windhex32, on the other hand, is small, sleek, lets you specify an external script dumper if you want, can load two tables at a time plus ascii, has built-in Unicode Japanese support and sports a ton of (fully functional) search options. Accept no substitutes! |

I have to try out a few of these. My editor of choice has a broken search function.
I'll try that Windhex32. |

Translhextion is what I use (well, I haven't hacked in awhile so "used" might be the right word), but only because I'm too lazy and set in my ways- I wouldn't reccomend it. | |||

Hex Workshop's great if you don't need any romhacking-specific functions. I did Cave Story in Hex Workshop. It doesn't have any wildcard search functions either, and that can be really aggravating sometimes.
For anything else though, WindHex32 all the way. |

Originally posted by T.Geiger What I meant was, if you hit an arrow key left or right, it will step you through each individual 4 bit digit of hex, instead of going to the next byte. It's not really a flaw of your editor, it's just my personal preference to be able to jump to the next byte with one keystroke. Thus, XVI32 treats each byte as a cell in a table, whereas your editor treats the data more like text. Cygnus is similar in that regard, and I only used that for a while b/c of its file compare features. Another advantage of the way XVI32 has it configured is that you won't accidentally alter a byte unless you enter both digits. So if you hit a stray 'F' key you can just use the arrow keys to get away from that byte and no harm is done. It's only when you enter the second digit that the input registers as permanent.
