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.
Class is slightly modified; it uses 2 CBlob pointers instead of a single CBlob member. CUtlMemoryPool::m_pHeadOfFreeList is also replaced with the new CUtlMemoryPool::m_pPrev pointer. Code has been modified to accommodate this change and aligns with the assembly code of r5.
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.
Xbox enumerants have changed as the game supports Xbox One controllers. Since the joystick button count has changed, 'JOYSTICK_MAX_BUTTON_COUNT' has also changed which affects the size of datatypes used by the CInputSystem class.
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.
Code is based on Valve's implementation, with the following changes:
- Usage of 64bit signed size types.
- Usage of const where possible.
- Removal of field 'CCommandBuffer::m_nLastUsedArgSSize'.
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).
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.
CEngine::Frame() tends to return out early if we are ahead of frame time, and therefore need to sleep. In this particular engine, CEngine::Frame() returns true if it had actually executed an engine frame, else it returns false.
Therefore, we end up calling 'NvAPI_D3D_Sleep()' multiple times a frame, and thus causing a major loss in performance. Now we check if we have actually ran a frame (incrementing reflex frame if so). If the frame was not incremented, but 'GFX_RunLowLatencyFrame()' was called, it will not call 'NvAPI_D3D_Sleep()'.
Code has been tested and appears to work on my system (never called twice or more per frame). Needs more testing on other systems to make sure its good.
