ResFool

Haven't been here in a while, so I don't know if this has been brought up before.

I was browsing around ResExcellence looking for some spiffly GUI mods when I found a link to an app called ResFool. Resource editor for OSX. Anyone tried it? Heard of it? Good things? Bad things?

If you haven't, (url="http://"http://www.ljug.com/sw/resfool.html")linky linky(/url).

Don't have time to download it myself right now.

Well, it's not free...

Looks good, though I'm not sure if it's Nova-Tools compatible.

You have to pay for EV One.

I don't like EV One.

Mission Computers also pretty good.

If you're careful enough with ResEdit, it won't crash. I routinely work on very large files, and hardly ever have a problem. Just save often.

My problem is that I have to reboot into 9 in order to do plug editting(Classic crashes whenever I try and start it).

That is strange, something must be misconfigured. I always do all my work in classic and never have any problems.

Make sure you have the latest versions of 9 and X, and get rid o any extraneous extensions and control panels in classic.

Take 20 minutes one day and reinstall it. 🙂 I screwed X over about a month ago, and so reinstalled instead of spending days trying to fix it, and decided to wipe the drive and do a custom install of everything , just for the hell of it... I've got pretty much the bare basics on 9, and only what I will ever use on X. In doing so, 9 starts up very fast, has no extension conflicts (not much to conflict with.. ;)), and I saved about 3 Gigs of space on my HD. Do a "clean" install of 9, and then move the preferences you still use from the old 9 system folder into your new one. It couldn't hurt, and only took 2.3 hours to completely reinstall Panther, 9, and all my old apps (External HD's are useful. ;)) Of that, the 9 install took only 14 minutes.

On topic:

If you need to pay for it, you may as well use EVONE and MC. Both are native in X, and EVONE is pretty much a good ten bucks cheaper. Between the two of them, you can pretty much edit every resource without a hitch.
