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.
The runtime checksum is now also written to the file, as any changes to the info node entities will cause this checksum to change, and therefore we should warn the user that the file needs to be rebuilt. The NavMesh CRC is now written at the END of the AIN file, and only checked if a NavMesh is present for that particular level. The same warning gets printed if this checksum mismatches as the user should rebuilt it.
NOTE: the NavMesh checks are custom and are not part of the official AIN file structure of this game. This is added as the NavMeshes are frequently rebuilt.
Fixed writing of:
- Path nodes
- Node links
- Path clusters
- Cluster links
The previous globals 'g_pppAiNodeClusters' and 'g_pppAiNodeClusterLinks' were of type CUtlVector. These have been retyped and renamed accordingly.
Also mapped the CAI_Cluster class out slightly more.
Rebuild of path clusters and cluster links are still not correct; parsing a file in from r2, results in a different file on the disk, at the very offset the clusters are being written in (one field is off, this will be investigated soon).
Find regex pattern:
inline auto ([a-zA-Z0-9_]+) = ([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)\.RCast<([a-zA-Z0-9_:<>*]+) *\(\*\)\(([^)]*)\)>\(\);
Replace regex pattern:
inline $3(*$1)($4);
This commit also removes the unnecessary initialization (which was required to type the auto variables),
and therefore removed 6kb of unnecessary dynamic initialization code.
This change was planned for a long time. This moves all REGISTER calls to a single translation unit, this is required as we currently added a very dirty workaround for not registering duplicates by checking if VFTable pointer was already present in the vector... Registering from single translation unit prevents duplicate instances that gets created if header is included by more cpp files.
Reworking this reduced 100kb+ of compiled code. This commit also reworked the way functions/variables/constant gets logged with their addresses; the new code formats them on the fly, and allows for resize at any time. Formatting is no longer required by programmer.
TODO: currently there are some compile errors for dedicated and client dll's. These will be resolved very soon as they need to be properly worked out still (server & client only stuff needs to be properly split). Use the 'main' (stable) branch for the time being if you need to compile these dll's.
* Fix all compiler error for GameSDK on S0 and S1.
* Remove some unused patterns and globals (launch performance gains of 100ms).
* Remove most duplicate patterns.
* Relocate globals from engine to a more appropriate location.
* Renamed some unknown vars to a more appropriate name (most of these where obtained a while back, but as we reversed more parts of the engine, some of these vars become known).
* Renamed some vars to fit the naming convention used in the SDK.
* Fixed pattern debug logging using the wrong pointer, thus displaying the wrong address.
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).
Add CRC calculated from large NavMesh (used to build AIN..) for later.
The future check will compare AIN CRC and NavMesh CRC and warn if they don't match (recommend a update, and auto run update if cvar set).
Also added better profiling to SaveNetworkGraph code
The AIN structure, including the in-memory structures seem identical to Titanfall 2. I mapped quite a few 'CAI_Network' related functions out and everything seems to line up. But I haven't figured the script nodes out (yet), but looking at this, it seems like they got completely stripped? TODO..
I also found where it creates nodes/links from input NavMesh, the poly structure also seems identical to Titanfall 2, but still haven't found where this extra field gets used.
* 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.
