CRC32 hash computation — signed int32 output
This tool was primarily created for Stationeers modding. Every item and structure in the game requires a matching CRC32 hash of its prefab name. Originally built as a replacement for cr32.online which went down for several days.
CRC32 (Cyclic Redundancy Check, 32-bit) is a checksum algorithm that generates a fixed 32-bit value from any input data. It's commonly used for:
This tool takes any text string and computes its CRC32 checksum using the IEEE polynomial. The result is a 32-bit unsigned integer that gets interpreted as a signed int32:
When the unsigned value exceeds 2,147,483,647, it wraps to negative (two's complement representation).
For Stationeers modding, if you create a new item called MyCustomItem, you need to generate its hash and add it to your mod's item definition file.
