Avoid heap memory allocation and a level of indirection. This allows the compiler to optimize the program even more. No logic has been changed in this patch.
* split rtech_game and rtech_utils cpp files into multiple files
* rebuilt several large pak load routines for debugging and custom implementations
* moved rson code to rtech_game
* reworked and improved engine and sdk pak precache system
* reversed more of the jobthreads system
Make the utility methods statics within the implementation so it could be used by other structs/classes of the VPK builder as well, these utility functions weren't useful outside the class. This also allowed for the removal of the singleton which had no purpose whatsoever.
The KeyValues class belongs here. Also reimplemented most loading methods for KeyValues, and adjusted the VPK building code to account for it. Pointers to the engine's implementation of KeyValues have been moved to a separate header ('keyvalues_iface.h'), as this allows external tools code to utilize the standalone KeyValues class implementation. Playlist utilities are completely separated from the KeyValues header; these have nothing to do with KeyValues other than manipulating a global KeyValues object for the playlists, and thus have been named as such and moved to rtech/playlists.
Originally, we store the search results in a CMemory instance which we then assign to the actual function pointer. CMemory is just a pointer class; we can assign the results directly to the actual function pointer. This commit reduces a lot of code verbosity, and also reduced roughly 2KiB worth of static pointers in the resulting executable. This commit also officially deprecates the support for any GameDLL's below S3 (Season 3), since it makes more sense to port the assets from earlier/later games back to the version this SDK supports.
Blocking it all together will cause problem when user wants to reset their controller binds. Now we limit execution to 4 per second (default) which doesn't cause problems when resetting any configuration, while also preventing cfg hacks.
This should in theory fix the server and client desync that takes place after multiple hours of uptime without disconnecting or reloading. Note that in this version of the engine the server tick is only send on connect (Titanfall 2 does seem to send it every tick, as this netmsg is also responsible for updating the server percentage on the 'cl_showfps' HUD, which does work as designed). The patched code still writes a 'statistics only' server tick update every tick, but only sends full if the interval time has been reached for that particular client instance.
Enabled by default, and removed playerprofile flag as we want to be able to disable this in the future may it cause problems. All tests done so far (on different hardware) yielded more latency reduction/performance improvements. Also added updated note for convar promo_version_accepted.
These flags only exist in the respawn version of the engine. Renamed 'CNetChan::unknown_challenge_var' to 'CNetChan::m_nRealTimePackets'. This field counts the number of packets sent while the frame time wasn't prescaled with the 'host_timescale' cvar, see r5apex.exe+0x3093C0 (140309FC0).
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.
There have been reports of hit registration issues, this is most likely caused by the clamping system to mitigate an exploit. Put behind a convar and disabled for now until debugged.
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).
Display the EULA (fetched from masterserver), which the end user MUST accept before they can make use of the multiplayer features of R5Reloaded. NOTE: user doesn't need to agree to this to use the listenserver.
The game internally obtains a auth token from Origin. On connect to a gameserver, it will send it to the masterserver. The master server will create a JWT token and send this back to the client. The client stores this token in 3 userinfo cvars (token, sig1, sig2). the sig1 and sig2 cvars are there to compensate for the truncation caused by sending the cvar, as each cvar string length could be up to 255 (byte max). The server verifies this token (the signature, timestamp, expiry); if they are valid, the has successfully authenticated and will connect.
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.
Some parts of the engine have to be rebuild in order to implement this correctly, therefore, it has been removed for now to avoid potential performance problems.
fps_max_rt and fps_max_gfx have been limited to 295 to avoid a contest with the engine's hard limit causing huge performance hits.
Propagated latency markers in an attempt to further reduce input latency. Code is pending rigorous testing on several systems, including systems powered by an AMD GPU to make sure we are not impacting performance on systems that does NOT support NVIDIA Reflex.
