Implement VFTable's to interface with engine (for the most part mapped out, only the new VPK methods needs further reversing).
This exposes a good majority of the FileSystem implementation of the engine, to the SDK.
* Use c++ methods as much as possible.
* Use enum types for accessing NavMesh objects from array.
* Use size_t for for loops when testing against size types.
* Don't compute strlen twice of more on the same string.
* Don't use unnecessary c string casts if there is a method with a std::string overload.
* Don't create string objects from string pointers if we could use them directly.
* Don't initialize RCON password twice on each change, and don't set if the new password equals the old.
* Moved ConVar usage text that where part of the help string to the usage string parameter.
* Flagged ConVar 'bhit_abs_origin' as FCVAR_DEVELOPMENTONLY | FCVAR_REPLICATED.
* Flagged ConCommand 'bhit' as FCVAR_DEVELOPMENTONLY | FCVAR_GAMEDLL.
* Check 'bhit_enable' before running the 'bhit' command callback.
* Fixed spelling in a few area's.
CUtlVector containing callbacks (you can have several callbacks for each ConVar).
also, in 'ConVar::InternalSetValue' Valve and Respawn run V_atod (atof) on function param 'pszValue', but they also check if input param 'pszValue' is a nullptr (which in this case, 'pszNewValue' gets set to an empty string), but yet they deref 'pszValue' (nullptr or not) in 'SetColorFromString' and V_atod, is this correct behavior?
For now I swapped these out with 'pszNewValue' for the very rare event the string happens to be nullptr.
The command is only implemented on the dedicated server or debug servers, so i cannot tell for sure what exactly 'bhit' does. But its either some form of telemetry or debug.
The command sends the player index that got hit on the prediction engine, the bullet fire origin and the angles relative to the target that got hit.
For now the command draws the bullet trajectory if it hits a player.
This commit also fixes the 'Unknown command: bhit' message.
* Changing RCON passwords on the server now closes all connections and re-initializes the system.
* Fully mapped out VFTable interface for IConVar* (used for ConVar callbacks, see callback.cpp).
* Added RPakAssetBinding_t.
* Added RPakUnknownStruct_t
* PatternScan the global RPakUnknownStruct_t.
* Renamed Members of CMaterialGlue
* RTechTextureInfo_t now has another unknown member named.
SourceSDK mathlib port with light modifications.
Renamed Vector to Vector3D (to avoid confusion with std::vector (declared as vector) and Vector2D/Vector4D).
g_pFullFileSystem is a pointer to g_pFileSystem_Stdio in the compiled module.
Inherit CBaseFileSystem for CFileSystem_Stdio (second VFTable pointer).
Additional cleanup.
More detailed operation statistics.
Discard VPK directory files who's header doesn't match engine requirements.
Separated manifest properly between language and context (you can now package for each language and context from a single workspace).
Initial proper implementation pending cleanup.
The new system builds a manifest file when a VPK is unpacked. The manifest files contains data such as the entry flags and texture flags. It also contains a field determining whether the file should be compressed or not.
When a user repacks a pack, the system attempts to load this manifest file and does a lookup to the object to retrieve the flags (most of these flags are unknown, but they are used by the engine and are necessary for stuff like cubemaps and texture files to work correctly. Cubemaps won't work with proper flags, and textures (decals, particle system components, etc..) will look washed out without them.
I think some also determine whether a file within the VPK should be cached or not, so simply marking everything as 0x101 will probably end up in more CPU time and higher filesystem cache usage (depot/ is only 0x1, I don't think anything there is getting cached ever without the 0x100 flag).
User could also repack a VPK while excluding anything that is not in the manifest file. So you could unpack all VPK's into a single directory (each VPK has its own manifest file tied to its level name), and rebuild all the VPK's with only the files that where originally in them.
fs_pack_vpk command usage: <locale> <context> <level_name> <manifest_only>
locale determines the pak language (default english), context determines whether is a server/client vpk, level_name determines the BSP name of the pak, manifest_only determines whether the pack system should only include files within the manifest (leaving this arg out will build all files into the vpk).
The VPK workspace path is determined with ConVar 'fs_packedstore_workspace'.
The 'fs_pack_vpk' allows compressing specific files into a VPK (compressed). This implementation has better compression ratio's then currently available VPK tools with compression (at the cost of speed).
The implementation is early, a directory iterator with a files for flags is planned soon to fully rebuild VPK's on-demand. A dedicated standalone program is also planned.
The output dir and archive formats should match 1:1 with the original game
The game uses 2 types, CSquirrelVM (mostly exposed to the VScript API of the engine) and HSQUIRRELVM (mostly used for internal squirrel functions like sq_pushbool etc..).
This refactor properly splits the CSquirrelVM* functions from the HSQUIRRELVM (SQVM*) ones. The functions have also been renamed accordingly and the prototypes have been adjusted to use the correct pointer type.
* Return global pointer with 'KeyValuesSystem()'.
* Declare 'bCreate' as false by default for 'GetSymbolForString()' and 'GetSymbolForStringCaseSensitive()'.
* Added vftable interface for 'IFileSystem::RemoveSearchPath'.
* Added hook for 'CBaseFileSystem::AddSearchPath'.
* Added hook for 'CBaseFileSystem::RemoveSearchPath'.
* Added method in KeyValues for loading a KV file and parsing it via the game exe (loads from cache, vpk and disk).
* Added method in KeyValues to parse GameInfo.txt when the engine loads this.
* Added proper pointer to g_pFileSystem_Stdio.
* Renamed existing one to g_pFullFileSystem (correct name).
* Obtain g_pFileSystem from the same constructor as g_pFileSystem_Stdio.
Moved logging functions to dbg.h (tier0) and export them from the dll.
Added additional functions for checking bad pointers (debug only!).
Reduced output code size.
Moved server/client headers and implementations into dedicated subfolder.
Renamed Some classes to match the game binary (e.g. CBaseClient is now CClient).
Removed redundant files.
* RTech::GetPakLoadedInfo returns a reference now instead of a copy. Make sure to check the pointer is valid from now on if dealing with the returned pak entry.
* RTech::GetPakLoadedInfo now has a overloaded function that takes string as argument for searching an pak entry.
* new ConCommand pak_swap which has Pak_Swap_f as callback.
* Pak_Swap_f performs pak unload and then load again.
* pak_requestunload can now be used with pak name
