Thank you for your interest in Hex Workshop v5 beta 1!
We are looking for help testing Hex Workshop under Vista, XP, Windows 2000 and any older version of Windows that you may still use.
Please report any and all issues. The best beta testers will receive free license keys for Hex Workshop v5 (10 licenses will be given away).
Major Changes Microsoft Vista Support: Hex Workshop has been updated to work with Microsoft Vista. Microsoft Vista support required extensive changes for sector editing and updates to the right-click document context menu, registration, and help file format.
Structure Viewer Enhancements: The Structure Viewer can now open multiple structure libraries and is easier to use. Users can set file extensions and display names for the structure libraries. Users can also verify their structures against their data using a new #pragma verify command.
Usability Enhancements: Hex Workshop includes many bug fixes and minor enhancements. A new /FILELIST command line option allows Hex Workshop to load files from a text file, more buttons are available for bookmark, structure and checksum operations, plus many other bug fixes and minor enhancements.
Reporting Issues We want your feedback. So much so, that we are giving away 10 free products/upgrades to the best beta testers. Please report any and all problems using the links below. We would rather duplicates then miss a problem, so please report everything and often.
