All programs on this page are provided AS I recieved them. No changes have been made to the program itself or to any documentation included. If the creators of any of the following programs would like the program removed from the site, simply ask me to remove it and I will be more than happy to do so.

Documentation
EmuTools
In the words of the creater of EmuTools, the program can "compare, list, verify, fix, and disassemble" rom files. There are programs that do what EmuTools does better, but EmuTools throws it all together in a single set of programs. Read the documentation for more information.

Version 1.9a

Documentation
HEx
HEx is a program for the TI-85 calculator. It is a creation of my own. Yea! You can convert from binary to hex, and also determine the hex value for an 8x8 sprite such as those used in NES roms. Only problem being you can only do one row at a time. I'm sure there are bugs, and the code is anything but optimal. I wrote this program in about an hour.

Version 1.0

Documentation
Hexposure
Hexpose is a simple hex editor. What separates it from most hex editors is that you can create table files that will assign any symbol you choose to a hex value. Instead of viewing hex and ascii, you see hex and the words from the game. It's a nice utility.

Documentation
Naga Sprite Editor
Naga is a sprite editor for Snes and Nes game roms. Naga can do 1st, 2nd and 4th bitplane editing on both Nes and Snes roms. I like using Naga for sprite editing, even with all the other sprite editors available, I find Naga to be the best.

NexEdit
NexEdit is a multi purpose editor for NES and SNES ROM images. For the most part, it is very weak. It acts as a hex editor, and can load Xlate table files, and can edit the CHR data in a ROM.

Documentation
ROMedit
Romedit is a hex editor. But what separates it from other hex editors is that it uses 8x8 tiles to display the file, and these tiles can be manipulated through special .tbl files. This makes hacking games such as Final Fantasy an easier chore.

Thingy
One thing I have learned is that if another program can't do it, thingy probably can. Use thingy for dumping scripts, and for just about any other text editing.
