HEXPLODER helps you reverse engineer any file [format] by changing one byte at a time throughout a range of the file data. in CHANGE mode a new hex value 'FF' (255 as default max value) replaces each byte offset, in OFFSET mode, the existing byte is adjusted in a +/- direction. HEXPLODER duplicates the file for each change, so work with small files! by precisely mishandling each byte of the format, you'll discover sweet spots in the code for further hexploitations!

• WARNING: can easily generate gigabytes of data when using big files!
• USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: copies files, so no irreversible damage can be done.

instructions:

• move HEXPLODER to your ~/Documents folder (Desktop won't work...)
• drag + drop file into this window
• set hexplode range using slider above
• press HEXPLODE to generate files
• check '/hexplodations' (folder next to app) to see outputs
• filename (ie file_010_00A.gif) has byte offset in dec _ hex for 'goto offset' in hex editor
• adjust range and/or press <- / -> arrow keys to shift range
• toggle mode between CHANGE and OFFSET (sets or adjusts byte value
• HEXPLODE to your heart's [or harddrive's] delight
