Hexing

Hexing is the editing of,  ,  ,  ,    and   files by players in order to modify and customize them. The term comes from the hex editor software originally used for the process.

History
Using a hex editor edits the binary code of the file and has an added layer of difficulty because it requires the use of checksums to ensure the files are not corrupted.

Brexing
Brexing is the process of breeding Petz with a hexed breed file in the lineage to affect what the offspring will look like.

Hexing Toyz
Most Toyz are made of animated filmstrips rather than the ballz and linez of other game components. Hexing these involves using a graphic editor like Photoshop to change each individual frame.
