Hey How sit goin, I was just wondering if anyone had made an undat to dat extract and instract tool for TOEE, and I know this is becoming old news but hey TOEE kikt some az I was saying any info on the subject will be rewarded with my Hex Calc converter @ http://mathias916.tripod.com/hex.html and if you want me to give you an updated version, I need links to undat to dat extract/instract; creating TOEE*.dat from TOEE* directory. Its just a good conselation prize, you can judge it for yourself.
There are a couple of dat tool extractors in the downloads section. Zane's 1.05 works good. They are free and work good.
Hey thanks fore the info, and if your looking to use my Hex converter the keys you can use are as follows all in CAPS A-F 1-0 ENTER : process TAB: switch modes ESC: EXIT it shows decimal, binary, hexidecimal values it aslo shows a hex value that you will need if you are modding a save file I costum built it to show this value in a format that is an acceptable equivelent to the value needed for the modded hex edit saved file. I.E. FA00 would be 00FA
If any of you will be using it let me know if its worth investing my time in adding more capabilities to the application. One idea I would have of adding to it would be a command line switch to accept different texel map images or TGA images (true vision targa). If you have any custom additions you would like to see let me know.
Hello all, dont know if anyone will see thus, but I created a new Hex edit tool. It takes binary or text files and converts them into a hex formated text file for edit. Its mainly for files so large you dont want the usual free hex editors to open them, becuase they usually will not, with trial versions., plus it will use alot of reserved ram to open the file stream. functions from console win 32 Binary\text -> Hex.tmp -> Binary\text.xhx Read -> Convert -> XConvert Read -> Hex.tmp -> XConvert -> Original (save for example) Read -> Search - Replace -> Hex.tmp -> Xconvert -> Original (i.e. save ) you can find my 1.3 version at http:\\mathias916.tripod.com\HEXPRO.zip I also have a quik Hex converter Calculator made using the OpenGL, for short easy quik conversions, its a windows application. It only streams CAPS'ed characters for HEX and Only numbers for DEC. the TAB key will switch between HEX - DEC, ESC TO EXIT(). that is located at http:\\mathias916.tripod.com\hex.html if you feel these links are broken just try high liting the link and paste directly to the address bar... Please respond with any comments about the applications if you use them. I will not be help accountable for missuse or errors that occur during use, Ive tested the app with no bugs, Its about input. So I would take a look at the (hex)*.tmp before you try to search and replace a string in the *hex.tmp because the 1byte (i.e FF) hex char is aligned by twos seperated by a space SO START search replace in that way (i.e. 00 A0 B1 DD). USE CAPS FOR HEX CHARACTERS. also I am not posting the source code and will only be avialable to those who ask me for it. Only the executable will be include in the ZIP file.
Ok correction to link not \\ its // so http://mathias916.tripod.com/hex.html http://mathias916.tripod.com/HEXPRO.zip
Oh by thee way, you can just right click -> save target as becuase its a direct link too the file, if you didnt know, but html extinsion is a link to a site so no point, if you want too skip that again its @ http://mathias916.tripod.com/hexflame.zip
Your welcome too use it in moderation. It can convert pretty much any file into hex. So if you write a text file in example: Dear John, you really screwed up this time, Im leaving you... 44 65 61 72 20 4A 6F 68 6E 2C 0D 0A 0D 0A 79 75 20 72 65 61 6C 6C 79 20 73 63 72 65 77 65 20 75 70 20 74 68 69 73 20 74 69 6D 65 2C 20 6D 20 6C 65 61 76 69 6E 67 20 79 6F 75 2E 2E got this above output. some tips of use, in my own testing, dont use wordpad or any word processor on the *(hex).*.tmp for edit and replace, because it will loose its binary format, and will loose key data during retranslation to *(original).*.xhx . I found that somthing like windows Notepad with word wrap option works well on smaller files. But larger formed saved games or other data will bog down the file stream, and possibly crash when it uses it search and replace algorithm. And this is why I created one (search -replace) included in the program, its way more efficiant, on lower memory systems then using the Notepads version.
Oh just fyi, I used this tool, and made this tool to hex edit/hack character profiles for Neverwinter Nights. And with much success I was able too do one mem dump on a save, and do a search and replace string to change the expierience my character had too the max amount. with just knowing the current exp. I was able too find the string to replace. Believe me when I say I worked 2 days non stop just too haCK NWN by the creation of this program tool. Its algorithm is perfection, Because I know, for fact, and tested this app. amany times, to reach its final structured or class form. I was expecting more feedback from such an algorithm, because such doesnt come cheep. Because I got tired of searching the net for half a** freeware-shareware (because you would need too buy it too open a Never winter Nights profile save because of its large size) that most of them where. And I am intending on making a windows based app using this structure and algorithms. But maybe that wouldnt be appreciated here, so I probly wont post the source/and Application here.
