SADXTweaker is a utility that edits many things in the PC version of Sonic Adventure DX's sonic.exe file. It was written by MainMemory in Visual Basic .NET. It requires the .NET Framework 3.5 to run. It is named after Sonic Tweaker. This program's goal is to edit everything that isn't covered by a more specific editor, especially values that are inside of code.
