I wanted a tool that would let me visually inspect gridlike data in binary files, like level maps and graphics. Basically it lets you define how a pixel's bits should be fetched, and then renders the binary file with that pixel format. You can play with the parameters until the data comes into alignment. This makes finding things like level maps within the data fairly quick.
It's a C sharp application. Free and open source if anyone here would find it useful.
The binary version I've provided uses .NET 4 so the minimum requirement is Windows XP SP3. Might be possible to rebuild for other platform targets, but I'll leave that for anyone interested to figure it out.
Edit: switched from .NET 4.6.1 to 4, reducing requirement from Windows 7 SP1 to XP SP3.
