Let me know if these links drop dead. I can likely host em myself someplace. But until then, they're where I found em.

Hex Editor - XVI32
This is a free hex editor. Definitely one of the vital programs you'll need for both DMC3 and DMC4 modding.There's others out there, if you prefer. This is the one I use. Winhex is sweet but it's not freeware.
Download Link - XVI32 Home

AFS Explorer
You'll need this to modify the container files this game uses.
Download Link - FileFront

TM2 Converter - OPTPix Imagestudio
You need this to convert the textures into something you can open with an image editor. As much as I hate to link this, I've yet to find another TM2 converter that does the deed. The others I've found so far for some reason do not correctly export the palette settings and result in messed up hues. I'm still looking for a better option, but for now this may be our only choice. (Haven't tried Noesis for this, yet, but I plan on it.)
Download Link - RapidShare
*You'll need a Serial Code to register it with on install: 5V8PZ-32PNR-XP8LZ-P8M8P-9RSP3

Python 2.5.4
It allows the pac utilities program (below) to operate.
Download Link - Python 2.5.4

Jamesuminator's Pac Tools
Make sure you have Python installed (above), or this program will not work. It unpacks and repacks the .pac container files. Simple enough.
Download Link - Mediafire

You'll also need an image editing program that's a bit snazzier than ms paint, and if you want to change the bg music - you'll need an ogg/mp3 converter.
There are lots of options out there for both of these and I'm sure folks have their favorites. But here's a couple free options to consider if you don't wanna fork out money for the classy ones:


Image Editor - GIMP
No, it's not Photoshop. But it's pretty durn close for being a completely free program. Some people swear by it. IF you can get it running on your OS. :P I haven't tried it lately so no guarantees on compatability for Windows Vista/7. But it should work.
Download Link for Windows OS - Gimp-win Home
Download Link for Everything Else - Gimp Home (includes a link to the above page)

Audio Converter - OGG/MP3/WAV
I -think- this is the one I used. Been so long now I can't remember and I haven't reinstalled. Anyway, it should work. I hope.
Download Link - Audio Converter Home

Hope I didn't leave anything out...

Reuploaded Jamesuminator's pac tools, link was reported dead. I *think* that is the latest version.

[EDIT]

Sephiroth991995 says you need python 2.5.4 to use the pac tools, updated first post to reflect that.

There you go, have fun modding this awesome game.
Btw after you edit a texture and convert it back to tm2 you can drop that file on the DMCtexture tool and you're set.
One more thing does anyone still have optix? gamegraphic studio is a little.... dunno I'm not used to it.

Hehe you're a life saver, really thanks man. As for the blocked link, dunno I had no problem opening it, try making an account, if you hadn't already, mediafire seems to have a problem lately.

Anyway here are the separated links of the stuff I put in that pack:

Python
http://www.python.org/getit/releases/2.5.4/
Jamesuminator's Pac Tools
http://www.mediafire.com/?gr7jkt5y2e3cn0w
Afs Explorer(and yeah the tool was used to mod PES)
http://www.moddingway.com/file/270.html
HxD Hex Editor
http://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD
DMC Texture Tool(if you'll use this you won't need the hex editor)
http://www.mediafire.com/?xm457rqj6sd9rol
