XNBTEdit. Edit NBT in XML

NBT-XML converter & editor

Features

• NBT -> XML and back
• Easy editing in XML
• Text editor of your choice
• SNBTs are also parsed. No more scary half-screen one-line strings!
• Bulk editing/conversion

WARNING. Manually editing NBT files is not safe. So be sure you know what you're doing. Or, at least, create a backup. If you didn't and something went wrong, you can try to load the previous version saved in the same folder with .backup extension.

There may be issues with non-ASCII characters.

SNBT

Basically:

<list of="string" name="Lore">
   <string>[{"text":"Text"}]</string>
</list>

But you'll get:

<list of="string" name="Lore">
   <snbt>
      <list of="compound">
         <compound>
            <string name="text">Text</string>
         </compound>
      </list>
   </snbt>
</list>
