Finally, advanced image patching, patch dependencies, another bunch of small things... and a New Year's Resolution of never taking as long with releasing a new build ever again during active development.

thcrap

The result of two months worth of painstaking detail work. DLL injection chaining (read: vpatch) support, a number of smaller bug fixes, and quite a lot of general quality improvements throughout the code base.

thcrap

• Actually call strings_patch(). -.-
• Eliminate directory creation confusion and patch CreateDirectoryA().
• Patch Win32 dialog font sizes.
• Correctly determine the size of patched Win32 dialog items, once and for all.
• strings_vsprintf(): Rewrite to work independently of string encoding.
• Introduce a "Rx" syntax for hexadecimal addresses relative to the game's base address.
• Use three methods to determine the entry point of the game process.
• Detour CreateProcess() and LoadLibrary() for DLL injection chaining.
• Detour CreateRemoteThread() to apply the thcrap detours to newly injected DLLs.
• Add inject_CreateProcessW().
• Add a basic custom exception handler.
• log_nprint(): Check if the console was opened.

thcrap_tsa

• tsa_CreateWindowExA(): Observe CW_USEDEFAULT.

win32_utf8

• Add GetModuleFileNameEx().
• Redirect GetWindowLong and SetWindowLong to their W equivalents.
• Add GetPrivateProfileInt().
