This collection of pages documents the usage of hacked, the graphical editor for modding System Shock (1994) and compatibles.
This application modifies files on your hard-disk. By intention, this should only happen to the resource and data files of the game. To avoid unintended data loss, please make backups.
Ultimately, this editor is meant to support modding the game in any way the (compatible) engine that is used supports. At the basis, this means working on fan-missions (level and message editing), but also extends to changes of resources (different textures) or even object properties (weapon/enemy stats, ...).
