Integrating Lua modding support into No More Heroes 1 + 2.

A work-in-progress.

How to use

• Build as .DLL then inject into NMH.exe / NMH2.exe
• Currently injection has to be done manually, I use Cheat Engine
• Afterwards, the game will load all .lua files in the /Mods/ folder of the game's install folder (so SteamApps/Common/No More Heroes/Mods/)

Included mods

I've included some sample mods by default in the /Mods/ folder.

• VisitAnyMap.lua: Press X on the map screen in No More Heroes 2 to expand the menu to include every map in the game.
• SprintOutOfCombat.lua: Hold RB while moving to sprint (when not in combat).
• RainbowKatana.lua: Makes Travis' beam katanas turn rainbow.

Complete

• Execute Lua in NMH2
• Read/write to NMH2 variables
• Execute functions (static / overloaded / object instance)
• Documentation via json
• Extending classes via json
• Loading multiple Lua scripts
• Common iterators
  • AllCharacters / AllZako / AllCommonObj global lists
• Function hooks (both pre/post hook, via FunctionName_RegisterHook(CallbackName, bPostHook))

Not started:

• Hook parameters
• Launching on game startup
• Sharing C and Lua namespaces
• Subclass game classes

Known issues

• Some function calls / hooks are unstable and result in crashing.
