Fixed rare crash in CMDLCache when buffer itteration returns invalid pointer (not null!) for handle.
Made all variables and functions used by BuildPropStaticFrustumCullMap searched dynamically (these should also work on s0, s1 and s2, they are compared but at the moment untested).
TODO: Fix deref crash properly (see bsplib.cpp l291).
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)
* 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).
* Dedicated SDK now supports ASLR enabled executables.
* Complete removal of CEngineClient on the dedicated server.
* Complete removal of gHLClient and g_pHLClient on the dedicated server.
* Performance improvements for the dedicated server frame loop.
* ConVar 'CVCallback_t' structure rebuild.
* Reduced overhead throughout SDK.
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).
Game will check scripts/levels/mapname.json and load all rpaks in the rpak field.
Game now also unloads pak files loaded by the SDK preventing crashes and unnecessary memory usage.
VPK's and STBSP's are planned to be added as well.
* 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
* IConsole overlay now clears the oldest log entries to stay under the vector limit instead of clearing the whole vector.
* IConsole code cleanup.
* IBrowser code cleanup, reordered class methods.
* Use ConVar utilities to get/set values for strings in IBrowser and IConsole.
* New ConVar's for RUI console overlay to tweak colors.
* Since the material mode is set to '2', all of the render loops and shader loading functions are no longer called. These have all been removed.
* Added description for patches that missed them
* Traced root caller/cause for certain patches to skip even more unnecessary code and save more memory.
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.
The instruction at 'CalcPropStaticFrustumCull' [0x14028F3B0 + 0x5C7] moves RSP + 0x70 into the R13 register.
RSP + 0x70 seems to contain a pointer to collission data for that particular prop model.
When running NoShaderApi() and passing the dedicated server the '-noshaderapi' command line parameter, RSP + 0x70 will be a nullptr.
This has to be fixed to have prop static collissions on the server.
The approach could likely be performed better, however this is a multithreaded operation and isn't very easy to debug. So far this allowed the server to start and change to every level. The root cause has to be identified when the server is stable
* 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!).
