| Isn't that the same SUPER that may now be installing things in questionable ways? I know they do... something to prevent you from running a previous version, if you install a new version and want to revert, for whatever reason, anyway. Why not use something like XMedia Recode (which has a portable version), or other converters like it? |

| I'd like to recommend Tinke for fiddling around with NDS games. It's netted me some interesting finds in AWDoR at the very least. |

| What sort of tools are needed to view textures and graphical assets for PS2 and Gamecube games? Emulators, yes, but anything specific? |

| Here is a question. Is there a name for the type of program that GCRebuilder and Tinke are? In other words, both programs allow you to look into the guts of GC and NDS games respectively. They allow you to extract files from games and analyze them. Is there a name for programs like these? |

| Would it be taboo to request that someone with Xentax access bundle together a collection of all the tools the host (with as many different versions as seems potentially useful) and upload them somewhere? |

| I am currently developing the following: This is a tool for anyone interested in searching their roms (single file or directory of files) for specific terms that may lead to finding unused or hidden content in games. It will analyze each rom and report its findings in an organized tree view with counts, address the term was found at, and a snippet of the text (600 characters) it is contained in to provide relevance. You can edit "Terms.txt" to add new words if needed (accessible in the menu or manually), or adjust how the files are searched (Normal, Byte Swapped, or both). Terms will automatically be added as lower, upper, and title case without having to specify additional entries within "Terms.txt". When previewing the snippet, the application will automatically highlight the term for easy reading. It can be found here if anyone is interested. The Peeper:  Features: -Supports any rom type. -Supports standard text formats (will support more in the future). -Single File or Directory processing. -Editable terms list. -Automatic character case generation of each term provided increases the chances you will find a match. -Normal, Byte Swapped, and Zero Byte Delimited search options (Options menu). -Organized tree view to display results with counts and address found at listing. -Snippet of rom search area the term was found in for relevance. -Snippet term highlighting for easy readability. -Text copy option on selected node. Requires: .Net Framework 4.5 Roms |

| Could you add another search method? I've noticed that some PC games like to add 00 values in the middle of text. So "happy" would show up as "h0x00a0x00p0x00p0x00y0x00." Could you possibly add a similar search as an option... and maybe making that byte's value changable? ____________________  |

| Looks like an interesting tool. If I ever (hopefully) get back to contributing to TCRF, I'll give this tool a spin. It looks useful. ____________________ Perhaps one day it will be a trilogy... Operation Bluebird |

Originally posted by Foxhack I sure can. I've implemented a Zero Byte Delimited Search Method (at your request, but not released yet), though would the byte be anything else other than 0x00 (this apparently is just a blank character used for padding strings/characters in many different files)? Also I may add an option to change the padding length of the byte delimit to be configurable as well if needed. Seems a lot of stuff is stored using this method:  |

| Foxhack, a new version supporting your requested search type (Zero Byte Delimited) can be found here. |
