Guilty Gear Xrd lacks a few built-in quality of life things like hitbox viewing and robust replay tools. However, third party tools exist to plug these holes, and make your experience with the game better!
Labbing Utilities
Wakeuptool
https://github.com/Labreezy/rev2-wakeup-tool/releases/latest
Helps with practice against wakeup reversals.
Labtool
https://github.com/PCvolt/rev2-Labtool/releases/latest
Adds more features to training mode (Frame data display, etc.)
Combo Recipe Manager
https://github.com/WesselKuipers/GGRev2ComboRecipeManager/releases/latest
Allows you to share premade combo recipes (like in the combo mission mode ingame) via files.
Hitbox Viewer
Hitbox Injector

The links in this thread are down. This link has the files.
Use function keys (e.g. F1, F2) to toggle black backgrounds, camera centering, and gravity. The effects of the injector are permanent until the game is closed.
boxdox.bb
http://boxdox-bb.dantarion.com/#/viewer/gg_revelator_104/
Only supports up to Revelator 1.04- very outdated.
Input Tools
Eddienput
https://github.com/nirgoren/Eddienput/releases/latest
Allows faking of a 2nd player's controller in order to share canned recordings.
Modding Tools
bbscript
https://github.com/super-continent/bbscript/releases/latest
Compiles and decompiles character scripts for multiple Arc System Works games.
Rev2 Mod Loader
https://github.com/super-continent/Rev2ModLoader/releases/latest
Loads or extracts custom character scripts at runtime. Can be used online provided that both players have identical mods.
Vulkan Wrapper
https://github.com/reddelta11/dxvk-async-Xrd/releases/latest
This is a Vulkan wrapper designed with the intent of reducing "chunking" and FPS drops. It's unknown if this mod actually helps as of the writing of this part of the page, but the creators are looking for feedback.
Chroma Key Stage

GGXRD-R2 How to access Debug Stage and inject Chroma-Key stage:
- Open Cheat Engine
- Open GGXRDR2
- Go to character select in training mode and get to the point where you can select a stage
- Navigate to Ogre Valley's entry in the list, but do not select the stage
- Search for the value "22" in a new scan
- Move 1 stage to the right on the stage select such that you are hovering over Arena's entry
- Perform a next scan on the value "23"
- Select the address which matches these restraints and set the value equal to 100
- (Optional) To turn the debug stage into a chroma-key stage, find the file TestMap_BG.upk in your GGXRDR2 install directory and replace it with the attached file. [WARNING: be sure to create a backup of the file before you replace it]
