Archive Lab
A desktop workspace for inspecting, editing and reverse engineering binary files and game archives.
Overview
Archive Lab is a hex editor for inspecting, editing and reverse engineering large binary files and game archives. It provides a virtualized 64-bit hex view together with search, replacement, highlighting and data inspectors.
Binary structures can be described using ABT, a bounded C/C++-style template language. Parsed fields remain linked to their byte ranges in the file. Templates that describe archive contents can also publish their entries as a directory tree for inspection and extraction.
Templates can be written and compiled inside the application. The Template Center keeps bundled and user-created templates organized in one place.
Archive Lab also includes a Compression and Transform Workbench. This provides a separate workspace for applying supported compression algorithms and byte transformations to binary data.
