Hex Maniac Advance

HexManiacAdvance is a hex editor designed for editing Pokemon GBA games. It specifically targets the English games Ruby (AXVE), Sapphire (AXPE), FireRed (BPRE), LeafGreen (BPGE), and Emerald (BPEE). It has a reduced set of features when opening other files.

Other than standard hex editor features like load/save, view/edit, and copy/paste, it also provides improved navigation, display, and editing features for more easily working with data within the files.
