Hi

i'm looking for a patcher mostly free that can compare 2 files and create a patcher
maybe with the possibility to search and replace some strings

i use a 64bit hex editor , but it's boring and i have always to do manually

i need to make some tests for firewall and antivirus and other

is there a free patcher or trial/paid patcher that can help me ?

thanks

Hello & good day Giulia! Did you try xdelta?

(There are GUI front-ends for easy usage as well)

Cheers!

Hello dear giulia, it's still Alpha, let me have something Beta for your requested features to upload (hang in there, it's not that far in time).

One last question: What's the maximum file size we are talking about? The fastest is just loading it all up in memory to process. Thanks.

Yes, the weekly releases idea includes doing custom-made programs for serving users directly (hooray yours' the first release on official project opening this month!). Cheers! :)

Hello again dear Julia, your dynamic search & replace requirement added a second layer of complexity to the simple binary patching program (we'll get there; even if not the first, this is a release for the month a bit longer).

Cheers! :)

P.S. if you'd like to see some alphas for you to see how's it going, just shout. Thanks again!

You could use "CodeFusion Wizard", which is freeware.
Or as a shareware alternative, there's "Funduc Software's Patch Creator".
