What this utility does
Calculate SHA-1 for text, hexadecimal bytes, or a local file using the browser Web Crypto API.
Algorithm and input contract
The exact bytes are passed to Web Crypto SHA-1. Local files are buffered in memory and limited to 16 MiB. A 40-character lowercase hexadecimal SHA-1 digest.
Important limitations
SHA-1 is no longer collision-resistant enough for new security designs. It remains useful for compatibility with existing formats and identifiers.
SaveEditor.com performs this Phase 17 calculation locally in the browser. The result is derived from the exact bytes supplied by the selected input source; the utility does not infer a game format or silently normalize file contents.
