* Fix bug regarding searching for prerelease builds, prerelease was assumed to be always at the top but this isn't true.
* Make the prerelease toggle button check for updates instantly.
* Automatically launch the game after the update has finished.
- check if game is running, and if so, warn and discard update/install request.
- check if launcher instance is running, and if so, not create another one but instead move focus to existing one
- periodic update checks and update installations
Some of its defines were located in the 'launcher' library directory, but it only contained defines for the SDK launcher, this has been moved to 'sdklauncher_const.h'. Also renamed the 'launcher_pch.h' PCH to 'sdklauncher_pch.h' to avoid confusion with 'launcher' and 'sdklauncher'.
- Added missing implementation for 'numworkerthreads' text box.
- Swapped 'single-core server' toggle with 'processor affinity' text box.
- Performed additional light code cleanup.
The single-core dedi cvar now only gets set when 1 bit is set in the affinity mask, as that implies single core usage.
Since the SDK loader (loader.dll) is taking care of loading the DLL with the process, the SDK launcher no longer needs to inject it. Replaced call 'DetourCreateProcessWithDllsA' with 'CreateProcessA', and performed additional cleanup
* All libraries have been isolated from each other, and build into separate artifacts.
* Project has been restructured to support isolating libraries.
* CCrashHandler now calls a callback on crash (setup from core/dllmain.cpp, this can be setup in any way for any project. This callback is getting called when the apllication crashes. Useful for flushing buffers before closing handles to logging files for example).
* Tier0 'CoreMsgV' function now calls a callback sink, which could be set by the user (currently setup to the SDK's internal logger in core/dllmain.cpp).
TODO:
* Add a batch file to autogenerate all projects.
* Add support for dedicated server.
* Add support for client dll.
Bugs:
* Game crashes on the title screen after the UI script compiler has finished (root cause unknown).
* Curl error messages are getting logged twice for the dedicated server due to the removal of all "DEDICATED" preprocessor directives to support isolating projects. This has to be fixed properly!
* Use C-style format specifiers everywhere.
* Use std::string as much as possible.
* Reorder CSurface class structure by groups.
* Light optimizations in 'CSurface::ForwardCommandToGame'.
* Fixed bug causing command line interface not to work properly.
* Optimized warning text and instructions.
* Terminal will not be freed when compiled in Debug/Profile.
* The console will now forward the command to all game window instances.
* Fixed compiler error when trying to compile SDK Launcher in debug (static lib was not compiled with static link runtime).
* Documented most stuff in basepanel.cpp
* Split some logic into dedicated functions in basepanel.cpp
* Implemented VDF parser from Matthias Moeller.
* Parse playlist file and load all playlists into the combo box.
* Finished designer code for launcher gui.
* Basic implementation of setting flags for host launch option.
* Check in 'CHostState::LoadConfig' if -launcher is below 1.. if condition is met the cfg's will be executed from 'CHostState::LoadConfig'.
* Added 'StringIsDigit' utility.
* Renamed 'r5apexsdkd64.dll' to 'gamesdk.dll'.
* Added required dedicated parameters to code instead.
* Bug fixes around CCommandLine class (fixed misaligned VTable indexes).
* SDK now supports being directly launched by the game executable.
The SDK launcher will pass '-launcher' to the game, which indicated its being launched by the launcher. If the game does not receive '-launcher', it assumes its being launched directly from the game executable, which will instead load 'startup_(dedi_)default.cfg'.
The sdk dll's are now added to the game's IAT by their dummy exports allowing for them to be loaded when the exe is loaded (the dll's do everything on init).
The dedicated server still has directx dll imports which will cause issues with ReShade or 3DMigoto, or trying to load it on a headless machine with no directx installed. The imports have to be cleared to avoid issues. The most convenient approach is to do this with a separate exe rather then patching it in runtime.
* Codebase restructured to SourceSDK codebase style and .cpp/.h assertion paths in the game executable.
* Document most functions with valve style 'Purpose' blocks.
* Rename variables to match the rest of the codebase and Valve's naming convention.
* Dedicated DLL and the SDKLauncher now share the same codebase as the DevSDK.
* Obtain globals or pointers directly instead of waiting for runtime initialized data.
* Dynamically search for all functions and globals (this doesn't count for dedicated yet!).
* Initialize most in-SDK variables.
* Move certain prints and other utilities under ConVars to reduce verbosity and increase performance.
* Print all pattern scan results through a virtual function to make it easier to add and debug new patterns in the future.
* Type global var pointers appropriately if class or type is known and implemented.
* Forward declare 'CClient' class to avoid having 2 'g_pClient' copies.
* Add IDA's pseudo definitions for easier prototyping with decompiled assembly code.
* RPAK decompress Command callback implementation.
* Load decompressed RPaks from 'paks\Win32\' overriding the ones in 'paks\Win64\' (the decompress callback will automatically fix the header and write it to 'paks\Win32\').
* VPK decompress Command callback implementation.
* Move CRC32 ands Adler32 to implementation files.
* Server will print out more details about the connecting client.
* Upgrade ImGui lib to v1.86.
* Don't compile id3dx.h for dedicated.
* Don't compile id3dx.cpp for dedicated
* Implement DevMsg print function allowing to print information to the in-game VGUI/RUI console overlay, ImGui console overlay and the external windows console
* Fixed bug where the Error function would not properly terminate the process when an error is called. This caused access violations for critical/non-recoverable errors.
* Fixed bug where the game would crash if the console or server browser was enabled while the game was still starting up.
* Several bug fixes for the dedicated server (warning: dedicated is still considered work-in-progress!).
