modding a vs

stylebuilder, photoshop, reshacker

thank you

ResEdit from TGTsoft.com works fairly well also. It's free too and also makes modding the hex code in a VS alot easier.

Why, pray tell, would you need to hex edit a visual style?

I recommend you buy *cough* *cough* Stylebuilder as its much easier to navigate etc etc, although i use resedit personally because i dont support cracks, warez and h4cks :O

Advent: In ResHacker, if you access the the VS's configuration files (ini), you will only be able to see Hex. In ResEdit, it allows you to view the text itself or the Hex. Whichever you prefer.

@ dozza: was actually thinking of purchasing stylebuilder, never said anything about pirating software...

amp.angel:

Right, but why are you using ResEdit when StyleBuilder is available?

@advent: perhaps he doesn't want to spend the money on stylebuilder?

Advent: Exactly what felix said. ResEdit and ResHacker do it's justice, and you can make your own visual styles using both. Why pay 20 dollars for something you can do for free?

Also, forgot to add: Stylebuilder's learning curve is also higher then that of ResHacker and ResEdit. I am also still fresh to making/modding visual styles.
