Index.dat Updater v1.0

Post by archibalduk »

This tool will update your index.dat file in your EHM 2007 rosters/database. Whenever any records/data are added or removed from a .dat file, the index.dat file must be updated to reflect the new number of records in that file. Utilities such as the Pre-Game Editor and History Editor update the index.dat file automatically, but if you use another tool or hex edit the data then you must update the index.dat file yourself. By using this tool, it will update your index.dat file automatically.

This tool is primarily designed for those who want to hex edit the database files in order to add/remove data.
