In Resedit with nova tools for things like cloaking divices and the cloak scanners and other stuff, there is some info (which is appearently some body trying to be helpful) about what values to enter to achieve certain results but they are written in hex which is not how we are supose to enter it in to the field. Can any one explain how to convert the hex? Or is there a website some where that explains it well?

You'ld think if he or she really wanted to be helpfull they'ld have written the numbers the same way they get entered. Maybe they're just sadistic.

Use this pre-converted table. To get the ModVal just add the values in the parens.

0x0001 - (1) - Faster fading
0x0002 - (2) - Visible on radar
0x0004 - (4) - Immediately drops shields on activation
0x0008 - (8) - Cloak deactivates when ship takes damage
0x0010 - (16) - Use 1 unit of fuel per second
0x0020 - (32) - Use 2 units of fuel per sec
0x0040 - (64) - Use 4 units of fuel per sec
0x0080 - (128) - Use 8 units of fuel per sec
0x0100 - (256) - Use 1 unit of shield per sec
0x0200 - (512) - Use 2 units of shield per sec
0x0400 - (1024) - Use 4 units of shield per sec
0x0800 - (2048) - Use 8 units of shield per sec
0x1000 - (4096) - Area cloak - ships in formation with a shďp carrying this cloaking device will also be cloaked

(I'll delete the topic you posted in the Nova forum.)

And, I must point out, these are not hex (I don't think!)...They're flags. Each flag means something, as our wonderful moderating friend pointed out.

-And you could have simply cut and pasted it onto another document. It'd be smaller...

Indeed, they are flags, however, they are also hex.
