v0.3.4

v0.3.4

Fixed

• Fixed a crash where systems running Windows XP may be unable to parse wide strings from memory. (@stephencwillis)
• Fixed an issue where the stack trace emitted from the Lua error handler would emit the stack from the error handler's context rather than the context of the traced call. (@stephencwillis)
• Save and restore the FPU state when entering Lua code rather than initializing the FPU at launch. This fixes a bug where Recons would occasionally fail to leave their spawning state and be stuck untargetable in mid-air, and possibly other subtle arithmetic bugs.

v0.3.3

v0.3.3

Added

• pso.read_mem_str(addr, len) - Read a block of memory into a Lua string. This is likely to be more performant, but you will have to use string.byte on the characters yourself and bit ops to compose larger integers, floats, etc.

v0.3.2

v0.3.2

Added

• pso.set_sleep_hack_enabled(enabled): true to patch the frame
  limiter to use Sleep(1) and reduce CPU usage dramatically. This
  tweak will cause Ephinea to instantly close the game. Sorry! It's
  out of our control. The game normally calls Sleep(0) to yield to
  other threads, but Windows does not guarantee that the process
  gives up its timeslice. Using 1 millisecond is enough to get the
  desired effect without skewing timing. Since this doesn't work on
  Ephinea, there is no built-in UI to enable it.

v0.3.1

v0.3.1

A minor release to clean up clutter in PSOBB installations.

Changed

• The location of imgui.ini and imgui_log.txt have moved to the addons
  directory.

v0.3.0

v0.3.0

This release focuses on creating a resilient addon registration
interface that is compatible with the existing Lua module system. It
adds several new utilities for addon developers and a way for addons to
depend on other addons.

Added

• pso.base_address is the base address of the psobb.exe module. Added
  for addon resilience when running on servers with modified psobb.exes.
  However, this does not mean the plugin works with compressed
  executables: decompressed executables are still required.

• pso.list_addon_directories returns a list of the directories in
  addons/ as an array table. It is used in psointernal for loading
  addons.

• pso_on_init, pso_on_present, pso_on_key_pressed,
  pso_on_key_released, pso_on_log, and pso_on_unhandled_error
  are all new low-level global functions that can be set to define the
  addons/ behavior entirely. You don't need this unless you want
  to completely change the plugin's behavior.

• util.underscore package adds several utility functions,
  particularly for functional programming. You can use it like any other
  Lua module:

  local __ = require('util.underscore')
  local mapped = __.map({1, 2}, function(v) return v+4; end)
  -- mapped = {5, 6}
  

• New addon registration process. Your addon module's init.lua should
  export a table with a __addon key. See the example for details.
  Directories under addons/ do not have to export this key if they
  are simply regular Lua modules; they will not show up in the addon
  list and not be able to register hooks.

• Basic unit testing for Underscore utility library.

Changed

• Addon hook API is overhauled. Most logic is done in pure Lua in place
  of C++. With this, also comes a change to the way hooks are
  registered. Please see the new addon_examples/HelloWorld path in
  the source.
• All existing addons before this release are broken and must be
  updated to the new API. After this release, the addon registration
  interface will be mostly stabilized and future releases will not
  break old addons (hopefully).
• Core UI has been rewritten in pure Lua.

Removed

• on_ functions have all been removed from the pso global table.

v0.2.1

0.2.1

No changes have been made to the plugin itself, this is just a release
test for AppVeyor.

Added

• AppVeyor continuous integration builds.

Unsigned byte memory read fix

This update "breaks" compatibility with 0.1.0 by ensuring read_mem yields numbers of the range 0 to 255 rather than -127 to 127. This was the intended behavior.

Initial public release

Minimum viable product.
