Xbox enumerants have changed as the game supports Xbox One controllers. Since the joystick button count has changed, 'JOYSTICK_MAX_BUTTON_COUNT' has also changed which affects the size of datatypes used by the CInputSystem class.
Utilize the new IDetour::DetourSetup() code, IDetour::Attach and IDetour::Detach have been removed in favor of this (significantly reduces chance of user error). Since the template check happens in the idetour header, it is much more aggressive on type mismatches, such as a difference in parameter types, between the function and detour, will now raise a compile time error. As a result, some type mismatches have been fixed in this commit as well.
Code is based on Valve's implementation, with the following changes:
- Usage of 64bit signed size types.
- Usage of const where possible.
- Removal of field 'CCommandBuffer::m_nLastUsedArgSSize'.
Display the error to the user without having to open the developer console or terminal window. This patch also adds printing to COM_ExplainDisconnection (which has been stripped out of the retail binary).
Make pak code more consistent.
* Added 'Pak_CloseFile' to SDK.
* Added partial rebuild of 'Pak_ProcessPakFile' to SDK.
* Added compile time assert for 'PakFileHeader_t' structure.
CEngine::Frame() tends to return out early if we are ahead of frame time, and therefore need to sleep. In this particular engine, CEngine::Frame() returns true if it had actually executed an engine frame, else it returns false.
Therefore, we end up calling 'NvAPI_D3D_Sleep()' multiple times a frame, and thus causing a major loss in performance. Now we check if we have actually ran a frame (incrementing reflex frame if so). If the frame was not incremented, but 'GFX_RunLowLatencyFrame()' was called, it will not call 'NvAPI_D3D_Sleep()'.
Code has been tested and appears to work on my system (never called twice or more per frame). Needs more testing on other systems to make sure its good.
Use CUtlVector, and remove every copy caused by passing vectors by value. CUtlVector does not support copying. Also removed all extraneous std::string copies caused by calling itoa instead of std::to_string, or std::stoll, etc. All features have been tested and work as designed.
Removed all extraneous copies by adding the class 'InterfaceReg' which will construct a new interface, and link it to the engine's static register. The Source Engine macro 'EXPOSE_INTERFACE_FN' will help utilizing this. The game module from the plugin is not obtained through the process environment block, so the executable is no longer sensitive to names.
The implementation in the engine always took/returned signed 64bit size types, but I made a mistake when reversing the virtual function table. All types have been changed to what they should be (mostly signed 64bit, very few unsigned), and usage in-SDK has been adjusted accordingly.
