Hex Workshop Problems

(Hi, I'm Jet and have been using Halo Mods for a while, but this is the first time I've had a problem that I couldn't find out how to fix. So call me a N00be if you want, I probably am compared to a lot of you)
Anyway, I can't get my Hex Workshop to work right. It was working, but now when I change something it goes back to the way it was. For example I would change something then I would go into the game and nothing would have changed. So I would go back and look at the file I just worked on, and it would go back to its normal values. Like it wasn't saving or something.
Has anyone had this problem? Thanks for helping

Working on the wrong file? Maybe you're working on your backup or something instead of the actual map file? Some hex editors require saving, others don't. I don't know, just obvious things that jump to mind. Sometimes it's the stupid thing that gets us...

Hm. I use a decent mac editor creatively called Hex Editor. There's a spot on it that I have to check to "Allow Editing" I guess in case I'm merely trying to view it. Does Hex Workshop have something like that?

I don't think so. It did work when I went through the tutorial. I've gone back to it to make sure I haven't missed anything for newer stuff. I have no clue. I'm guessing you need hex to do all the cool stuff like trigger lock with inf ammo or can you use HHT?
Oh, does the version matter? I could go and download an older version and try that. It's not like I use any other options except for the hex.

Most Hex-Editors use a auto-backup function. Some ask to Say "yes" or "no" to make a backup before saving. A couple of times, another Hex-ed. automatically created backups after saving. Just kill the sucker (so I did)!
