I'm trying to make some changes to XWING95 but as others have experienced it's a no-go in modern Windows. Anyone been able to get theirs to work or know of another solution? As far as I know it's the only one that works with the older games.

Are you trying to edit either the Gog or Steam version of Xwing95, I only ask as I have the GOG versions of Xwing, Tie Fighter and XvT/BoP installed and I can't open any of the BHE Modules for these games.

I doubt you'll have any luck with the Steam version either, they can't be compatible with the newer version of these games.

The X-wing Alliance BHE modules work fine though so I doubt it's anything to do with BHE it's self unless your using Windows 10, I know some of the editing tool don't open with Win10, I'm using Windows 7 myself

I thought So... I thought so.... the problems I've been having is Windows 10. That's why I switched back to Windows 7 64-bit much easier.
Thanks for the Info, Darksaber.

I'm telling you... there's got to be something going on. AlliED is working for me now and I suspect it has something to do with the creators update. Havent messed with BHE tho.

Sorry for bumping this thread, but I just got BinHexEdit v0.5.25 to run on Windows10 64-bit, just fine. You first need download the Visual Basic 5.0 run-time files before you install BinHexEdit program. You can download the file at Microsoft's support page:
