* Add '-nosmap' command line parameter to disable signature caching.
* Invalidate the cache map after initialization.
* Add const qualifiers where possible.
This implementation was done to calculate buffer CRC on the go, as that was what the VPK file system uses for the file crc's. But it later turned out to be unnecessary, and was never reverted.
* Fixed bug where the system still added entries after we are initialized (file has already been written to the disk).
* Moved loading logic to CSigCache class.
* Dedicated and Host/Client now have their own cache files.
* Promoted size types in CUtlBuffer to int64.
* Fixed bug where CUtlBuffer::GetPtr returns a 64bit pointer that was promoted from a 32bit integral type.
* Use int64/size_t for anything strlen, pointer subtraction, etc..
* Removed invalid structure alignment declarations.
Previously we used Json, however the rest of the game features KeyValues. I changed the system to feature KeyValues instead, to maintain consistency. Also improved the logic behind loading/parsing so we don't reparse the same level settings file if the pointer is still valid and we are on the same level.
The CPackedStore class now heavily relies on the engine's FileSystem and KeyValues API. Since its part of the engine, it would make more sense to utilize the engine's features instead. It also allows for easier modifications.
* The logic behind the build process hasn't changed.
Relies on the engine's implementation of 'KeyValues::RecursiveSaveToFile'. The IFileSystem methods have been fixed up with the CUtlBuffer class rebuild in which we could call these to write a KV memory structure as a file to the disk.
* Added validity checks for player names, they must be UTF-8 encoded, else game clients will crash attempting to set non-UTF-8 player names in RUI.
* CServer::RejectConnection now takes a 'v_netadr_t*', previously it was 'user_creds_s*', which worked as 'v_netadr_t' is the first member in 'user_creds_s'.
* Programmer must now manually pass a character buffer to 'v_net_adr::GetAddress(...)'.
* Fix history duplication by removing trailing white space characters from submitted commands in console.
* Fix out of range exception caused by caching svConVar.size() in CConsole::BuildSummary while we are modifying it.
* Fixed memory leak caused by extraneous Strdup calls in CConsole.
* Renamed variables and structure members, static vars in id3dx.cpp are not prefixed with s_, IBrowser_Config is now m_BrowserConfig.
* Performed code cleanup in id3dx.cpp.
* Combined members of TextureHeader_t and RTechTextureInfo_t.
* Renamed 's_pRTechBytesPerPixel' to 's_pBytesPerPixel' and declared const.
* Renamed 'dxgiToRPakFormat' to 's_DxgiToTxtrTable' and declared const.
* Renamed 'rpakToDxgiFormat' to 's_TxtrToDxgiTable' and declared const.
* Moved 'g_DxgiToTxtrTable' and 'g_TxtrToDxgiTable' to 'texture.g.h'.
* Moved 's_pBytesPerPixel' to 'texture.g.h'.
* Fixed defect where we used the [] operator on a std::map that should be const (s_TxtrToDxgiTable), replaced with the const version of std::map::at.
This commit implements missing material error logging.
When a material does not exist, it will get replaced with an error material, we log which material is missing, and with which error material it gets replaced with.
This commit also comes with some updates regarding the CMaterialGlue class, and some new types used by this class from the RePak project.
The ConVar 'bhit_abs_origin' will now draw a sphere at the predicted abs origin of the entity upon hit. This is useful for debugging lag compensation on the server (white star).
the parameter check for '-novid' has been removed from S2 onwards, but later added back in. Our S3 build doesn't have it as well. This commit adds it back in and allows user to launch the game without the startup video's by adding '-novid' to the launch arguments. ('-dev' also works, but this enables developer and sv_cheats..).
Implement bounds check for non-sanitized value of u.m_nNewEntity.
Debug builds of the engine have an assertion, however in release these are stripped.
This fixes a full chain client RCE exploit, for more information, see: https://ctf.re/source-engine/exploitation/2021/05/01/source-engine-2/
