Note [Important]

This is not a cheat or hack. Do not attempt to use this on the latest version of the game

Apex

APEX Legends / R5 Server Engine research

• Detours-based Visual Studio project for hooking the game engine

R5Dev

To use the vs project / engine hooking, here are some basic instructions:

1. Build the solution
   • or get the binaries from the releases page of this repo
2. Copy r5dev.dll and r5launcher.exe to the apex game folder
3. Copy the unpacked version of r5apex.exe over the original in your game folder
4. Run r5launcher.exe

The game will pop a debug terminal, that will forward your commands directly to the in-game source console backend. SQVM prints are also enabled, and the hooks will attempt to load game vscripts out of platform\ relative from the game executable before falling back to the SearchPath's defined in GameInfo.txt or the in-memory VPK structures.
