Re: [databenders] databending tools


Hi Tofu,

> So, what do you use to bend your data?

I'm a PC person so...
I like VXI32, has some basic search/replace functions :
http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm#download

My "3D structure" things were made using this tool on 3D mesh data.

*Shockwave Plugin req'd to play with these*
http://www.richardwinters.co.uk/shockwave.html

CoolEditPro, as you've already mentioned - will open anything.
If I'm bending images, and the results fail in Photoshop - I load them up in
ACDsee - saving out from there will cement an 'unstable' image in
interesting ways.

The other thing I'm into - which isn't really bending per se, is messing
with the sound drivers for MAME :
http://www.mame.net/downmain.html

Since this requires a compiler, it's more about getting weird interactive
sounds from spurious forms of arcade board (mis)emulation.
It's fun tho! :)

Look forward to reading future posts on this thread as I'm fairly new :)
Rich
