Eve not calling Endscene, Present etc

[apollo0510]

Hi folks !

Recently I've come to work on eve, and something is driving me crazy.
I can nicely inject Python into it. No problem.
I can easily load my own directx dll into it.

But :

Whatever I try, I can not find an com object to hook, that gives me the usual entry points into IDirect3DDevice9::EndScene / Present and so on. Why is this ? What kind of protection are they using ? All other games are easy to trap,but eve is resistant. Why ? Does anybody know ?

Did anybody successfully hook Endscene or Present in Eve ?

That would be neccessary to get the widescreen look back

Thanks for your help in advance.

Did you try OpenGL?

Check for OpenGL's 'clear' func (the OpenGL equiv of EndScene)

Hi Apoc !

So you are also playing eve ? I've seen you so far only in the WoW sections.
Back to topic : Open GL ? I'm running eve on windows , and it loads the d3d9.dll ! How could it possibly use OpenGL ? Nevertheless I will invenstigate that possibility.

Thanks for the quick answer.

If you're looking at OpenGL, glXSwapBuffers is a good candidate as an "EndScene" equivalent. At least it is perfect for hooking WoW's OpenGL renderer.

Ok. I finally figured it out myself.

COM vtable hacking doesn't work. You have to go and apply dirty patches directly into direct-x code. They are using the swapchain present method in a 'very' direct way.

That said, deciding WOW Gold to support it and succeeding at it are two different things, and in addition, there seems to be a lot of people who are still confused as to whether Buy WOW Gold or not Blizzard plans to support it. You can put your mind at ease now though. Very recently, lead systems designer confirmed that, yes;WOW Power Leveling Blizzard is supporting the two-handed weapon play style for the frost tree.
