Slightly mapped out the structure more.
The function should now be compatible with earlier game dll's.
CStudioHWDataRef::SetFlags has to be rebuild as these are declared inline for earlier game dll's.
* Rebuild SetRestrictedServerCommand and SetRestrictedClientCommands
* Implemented new CMemory Function to walk through a VTable.
* pDetours->GetCon() gets called first now.
*
Redacted most code to only perform operation to obtain studiohdr and staticprop material (read only operation, function does not modify memory used by the original 'v_BuildPropStaticFrustumCullMap()' implementation!)
The new function checks if pointer is within bounds (must stay within .data memory), if this isn't the case, the 'batch' is considered corrupt and function call to 'v_BuildPropStaticFrustumCullMap' won't proceed (note that the loop checks all bodygroups/LOD's of a model, it is possible that one doesn't have corrupt data, but a model where only one of its submeshes culls properly in the level is too much effort to fix as this function is based of disassembled output of the engine implementation, which in it self, comes with its own limitations).
For a better implementation we should proceed fully rebuilding the function (see commented function body).
The current and only problem with this is that it doesn't compute cull data properly (see bsplib.cpp line '222').
Rare crash when the sqvm tries to look for an animation sequence on a missing prop_dynamic model (mdl/error.rmdl doesn't support animations), its purely to indicate there is a problem).
This is mainly for development only and in the event so many models/textures/shaders are missing, the engine would effectively crash otherwise (if some of these aren't disabled).
Only works for prop_static (for the time being)
Only works for the S3 game_dll.
In order to get this to work: you must set 'old_gather_props' to nun-null and (for certain maps) perform the patch to prevent the frustum culling code to deref a bad pointer (see command 'opcodes test').
In 'datacache/mdlcache.cpp' the function 'CMDLCache::FindMDL' attempts to find 'mdl/error.rmdl' and assigns the studiohdr and handle to the members of CMDLFallback.
In 'CMDLCache::FindUncachedMDL' we check if a model exists, if a model does not exist, we replace the studiohdr with the one of error.rmdl we stored in the CMDLFallback structure.
This does actually work (on the dedicated server it doesn't crash at all!), but on the client it crashes when trying to gather props (right before rendering), setting the ConVar* 'old_gather_props' does interesting things (check IDA around this ConVar*). setting this to 1 causes it to crash in another CMDLCache method when trying to deref something in the global cache pool.
This method is easy to rebuild. I will do this soon and attempt to return error.rmdl parts from here as well if results are null (this might actually just work).
Leaving 'old_gather_props' to 0 causes it to crash in the middle of the function which is supposed to gather the props the 'new' way.
The gather props functions are kind of daunting
NOTE: Currently only confirmed to work somewhat properly on the dedicated server for prop_static. prop_dynamic is unconfirmed. And (almost?) works on the client.
* Added new function to CMemory allowing you to hook a virtual method from a virtual method table.
* Added SVC_Print Class
* Hooked SVC_Print::Process and print the messages the server sends.
*!! Still needs verification for earlier seasons.
* Add ConVar to allow user to set/unset FCVAR_DEVELOPMENTONLY ConVar's (default behavior would never be hit without this ConVar).
* Add icons to display the flags of a certain CommandBase.
* Fixed Dear ImGui not displaying images correctly (descriptor needs DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM_SRGB due to the nature of this game).
* Dynamically obtain buffer sizes of resources taken from modules.
* Light SDK cleanup.
Moved every pattern to IDetour interface. This allows for debugging patterns scans more easily, and create threads during pattern searching (Operation is now fired in APIENTRY).
Also cleaned up some unused code/extraneous comments.
Slightly increased performance by purging duplicate patterns.
Made variable search less dependent from other results (except if pattern-to-scan results is within the same header)
Migrating to this to initialize all patterns and prototypes in Systems_Init() instead.
This should make debugging missing/not found patterns easier and allow for opting out variable/constant search (some of these require other patterns to be found, thus resulting in seg faults..).
Also added check to detect if user has a eligible CPU to run this SDK.
The game requires SSE and SSE2 instruction sets. Our SDK requires this too due to the use of SSE intrinsics, so we cannot let the game handle this. We have to check it ourselves.
* Move most definitions to implementation file to avoid recompiling whole program for small changes
* Pass strings by reference for where possible.
* Split Module class to dedicated file.
* Add const qualifiers to all eligible methods for address/module class
* Some renaming
Inline every signature defined in the SDK (previously each translation unit had its own copy of the signature and function prototype). DLL init is near instant now (85% speed improvements).
* Added 2 new FileSystem pointers with new features in their classes.
* Register all factory instances created by the GameDLL in the SDK.
* Added new command 'fs_mount_vpk' to mount a specified VPK file.
* Renamed 'fs_decompress_pak' to 'fs_unpack_vpk'.
* Some renaming of Factory and VPK types.
* Some light optimizations/cleanup.
* Adapt codebase to new class to reduce rune-like code.
* Fixed several bugs where the global CClient pointer was used instead of the instance in question to issue bans and display information about a certain client in CBanSystem and Pylon.
* Upgraded CBanSystem and Pylon to use IPv6 instead (including IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses). This breaks all existing banlist files! All bans have to be re-issued or the existing file has to be updated to use IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses and renamed to 'banlist.json', and moved to the root of the 'platform' folder.
* Renamed pak_asyncload to pak_requestload
* Added new ConCommand to unload rpaks. It's called pak_requestunload.
* When CHostState requests an rpak unload, it will now print the name of it.
* Turned a few static addresses onto patternscans.
* Partially rebuild CGlobalVarsBase and CGlobalVars struct.
* Partially implement BuildAINFile (disk builder) written by BobTheBob9. All that needs to be found are the addresses/offsets for 'pUnkStruct0Count' and 'pUnkLinkStruct1Count' (see ai_node.h). I didn't have time for it yet.
* Patch call which restarts the engine once AIN file has been build (so it doesn't get cleared from memory).
* Temporarily patch write operation in 'Detours_LevelInit()' which writes out of scope since the navmesh structure is misaligned somewhere still with a few bytes.
NOTE: 'CAI_NetworkBuilder::BuildFile()' is for now commented out until the 2 other structs are found in the game dll. Once found then we could start fixing the struct offsets and hope it works as-is.
* Add Cbuf_AddText and Cbuf_Execute signatures.
* Remove additional VGui stuff from dedicated statemachine.
* Move signatures to their respective headers.
* De-inline 'CHostState::FrameUpdate()'
* Ported al new patters to GAMEDLL_S1, CEngine still recreation needs extra work
* Load server VPK's instead of client VPK's on standalone servers
* Dynamically search for 'g_bDedicated' global boolean instead of hardcoded address
* Add 'PatchString' to memory class
* Ansi colors can now be enabled with the '-ansiclr- flag.
* All loggers have been optimized and are all initialized only once at process startup.
* New hook for 'Warning()' print function with warning level.
* Fixed assert on ImGui on IBrowser because ImGui::Begin wasn't followed up by ImGui::End
* FileExists got modernized. Using std library instead of Windows native functions now.
* RTech::DecompressedSize is actually readable now thanks to steyk.
* Same goes for RTech::Decompress
* rtech_decompress prints the decompressed file CRC32 now and writes the file all at once.
* Fixed ImGui assert on spamming SetupImGui();
* 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!).
