Исправления и улучшения

• [SendInput] Исправлена проблема с драйвером TetherScript: на некоторых разрешениях/DPI клики мышью также немного сдвигали курсор (примерно на +-1px). Также обратите внимание: чтобы всё работало корректно, используйте совместимую версию драйвера — HVDK 2.1. Подробнее см. на этой странице.

Bugfixes/Improvements

• [Scripting] Added IPerformanceMetricsProvider — you can now display real-time memory and CPU usage data
• [Scripting] Significantly improved NuGet package performance — especially noticeable in large scripts

ALPHA! Улучшения производительности

В этой версии — больше десятка различных улучшений и оптимизаций производительности, которые я готовил уже довольно давно.

В ближайшие пару недель возможны нестабильности, но для большинства сценариев, особенно для скриптинга в EyePad, разница должна быть просто колоссальной.

Проверил улучшения на боте на базе ImGui — теперь можно выходить на диапазон в 2k fps. И это С УЧЁТОМ чтения памяти и разбора всех необходимых игровых структур! По сути, bot-loop теперь работает примерно на ~2k тиков в секунду — до этих исправлений FPS был в районе 400–500.

Следующая цель — стабилизировать FPS и сделать его более плавным, потому что сейчас он довольно «скачущий». Пару месяцев назад я уже писал про адаптацию new prototype-GC в changelog для 1.7.8559 — это как раз должно помочь с этой задачей.

Пожалуйста, сообщайте обо всём, что заметите!

Исправления и улучшения

• [Scripting] Улучшено освобождение памяти скриптов — даже если пользовательский скрипт содержит висящие ссылки, EyeAuras постарается очистить их после остановки скрипта
• [BehaviorTree] Улучшена производительность BT

Исправления и улучшения

• [Scripting] Исправлены Embedded Resources — Script FileProvider стал гибче и теперь понимает больше форматов путей
• [Scripting] Исправлена ошибка в Live Import — теперь изменения в .csproj должны определяться корректно
• [EyePad] Раздел Recent теперь сортируется по дате в порядке убывания
• [BehaviorTree] Добавлен новый узел — SetVariable. Он пока находится на очень ранней стадии, но я решил выпустить его раньше, чтобы собрать первые отзывы

Исправления и улучшения

• [Behavior Tree] Исправлена проблема с циклическими ссылками — из-за неё в интерфейсе отображались соединения, которых на самом деле не было.

C# Scripting - Embedded Resources - alpha

Added new very powerful tool into our toolkit - now you can embed arbitrary files, be it images, videos, text files or even DLL/EXE files right into your script. And then, from that very script you can do whatever you want with them just like if they would be right there on the disk. This opens up a lot of new possibilities - embedding guiding materials into scripts, bringing your own assemblies which contain some custom code or even entire installers of tools which your script might use.

Moreover, with use of C# Script protection it is possible to protect those resources with encryption, making it much harder to extract and re-use outside the script. I'll announce separately when that part of functionality will be publicly available.

More details...

Please report any issues you'll find in that part of the system!

C# Scripting - Variables improvements

Improved EyeAuras resiliency around script variables management - now none of default methods (accessing variable value or listening for its changes) are throwing exceptions, making it easier for new users to pick up and use.

General idea is to bring things closer to Python/JavaScript as usually in scripting you want as much flexibility as possible. At the same time, C# is strongly-typed language, thus striking the balance is not easy. This is the second iteration of variables, so we'll see how it goes.

Bugfixes/Improvements

• [UI] Minor fixes in how behavior trees are loaded

SendSequence changes

Added two new flags, which target the scenario when you want to play some long-long sequence of actions, but at the same time you want to make it possible that it could be interrupted at any given moment.

E.g. you have a sequence of skills, which are cast inside WhileActive block. Now you want to be able to interrupt it at any given moment (e.g. by toggling hotkey to "Off" state). Previously it was not possible to do so without using Behavior Trees or Macros. But now, with these two new options, it is just a couple of clicks

Can Be Interrupted

As stated in the name, it changes behavior of the action - if, for any reason, Aura gets deactivated, the action will be stopped, even if the sequence has not been completed yet.

But abruptly stopping sequences of inputs is not really a great idea most of the time - if, for example, action has pressed some button and NOT released it yet, if it will be interrupted, the button will stay pressed, probably breaking something.

That is where the second flag comes in handy:

Restore Keyboard State

This flag remembers keys, pressed by the sequence and will release them automatically at the end of the action. So even if the action was interrupted in the very middle, there will be no "stuck" keys.

Macros - Return/Break nodes

Adding two new nodes which should help to create better and smarter Macros!

Return

Return node allows you to exit the macro whenever you want to, even right in the middle of some sequence of operations. E.g. if character has died it does not make much sense to continue running the main loop. Equivalent of return operation in C#

Break

Break is more niche - it allows you to exit the current scope (not the macro!), e.g. if you're inside some Repeat loop, you can jump out of it if needed. Equivalent of break operation in C#

C# Scripting - DLL injection

For the last couple of months I've been working on internal improvements of EyeAuras.Memory namespace. The goal is to extend capabilities and to support DLL injection and hooking of external processes. For now, I am releasing only one bit of the entire set of improvements - LocalProcess now has InjectDll method which uses naive CreateRemoteThread based injection. This will not help with kernel anti-cheat protected projects. We're already testing kernel-driver based solution which allows to counteract that inconvenience - I'll keep you posted.

DLL injection brings a lot of interesting and powerful things to the table - the topic is very niche and technical, but in the next 6-12 months I'll be trying to make it accessible to anyone with some C# skills, without deep understanding of internals.

C#-скриптинг — инъекция DLL

Последние пару месяцев я работал над внутренними улучшениями пространства имён EyeAuras.Memory. Цель — расширить его возможности и добавить поддержку инъекции DLL и хукинга внешних процессов.

Пока что из всего набора изменений я выпускаю только одну часть: у LocalProcess появился метод InjectDll, который использует простую инъекцию на базе CreateRemoteThread.
Для проектов, защищённых kernel anti-cheat, это не поможет. Мы уже тестируем решение на базе kernel-драйвера, которое позволяет обойти это ограничение — буду держать вас в курсе.

Инъекция DLL открывает много интересных и мощных возможностей. Тема довольно нишевая и технически сложная, но в ближайшие 6–12 месяцев я постараюсь сделать её доступной для всех, у кого есть базовые навыки C#, даже без глубокого понимания внутренних механизмов.
