Robust Minecraft NBT editor
NBTExplorer is a game utility program developed by a software developer named Justin Aquadro. This software tool provides you a powerful low-level graphical Named Binary Tag (NBT) editor. It is packed with editing tools that allow you to tweak all your Minecraft NBT data sources. It is originally based on NBTedit. The significant difference between them is that this tool gives full support for Minecraft .mcr/.mca region files as well as the latest NBT standard.
Windows requirements and inclusion
As NBTExplorer is a Windows .NET application, one of its system requirements is to have a .NET framework 2.0 or higher to run. If you have a Windows 8 or later system, you will probably get a SmartScreen notice when you run this program for the very first time. It's a warning filter that prevents unrecognized software from running. Although, it's guaranteed that this software is safe and has built an established reputation in the Minecraft community over time.
This NBT data editor program is built on top of Substrate—a .NET/Mono SDK tool that is written in C# for reading, writing, and manipulating data in Minecraft worlds. Thus, it can read various file formats such as standard and uncompressed NBT files; Minecraft region files (*.mcr) and Minecraft anvil files (*.mca); Schematic as well as Cubic Chunks region files.
When you download the zip file and installer packages included in this software on your Windows system, you will notice that it now contains a second executable utility named NBTUtil. This file actually serves as a command-line control of NBT data. Although, NBTUtil has a limited feature-set as of yet compared to the initial executable file placed in this open-source software.
Efficiently edit your Minecraft data
NBTExplorer is an essential tool to have especially for Minecraft players. Through its powerful NBT editor that is feature-packed with editing tools, you will be able to edit any of your Minecraft NBT data sources. It is able to read and support various Minecraft file formats which makes it even easier to recommend having around. Although, you have to ensure that your system meets its requirement for it to properly work.
