Game Crashes if I place the two files next to it's folder

[eviluess]

Hi man.
Thanks for your work!

I compiled successfully without any code modification by the VS 2022 Communication Edition.
However, after I placed the generated dxgi.dll and blank.jpg to the game folder, the game quitted after 3~4 seconds.

I didn't actually run a game, I ran the "VESA Disaplay Test" and "D3D12HDR" because I want this hook to try to increase the brightness of the HDR rendering.

All the generated directx_hook_log.txt is 0 bytes.

I'll actually run a game after work.

[techiew]

I'm currently rewriting some parts to make the hook more compatible with third-party overlays, this might indirectly solve your issue. Not sure when I will be pushing the commits though, should be soon.

However the version in the repo should already work with 99% of games as long as there is no third-party overlay/hook (MSI AfterBurner, etc) messing around in the memory. The VESA display test might be a special case though.

Any update on this? Since I am running this on a unity game on steam and it's unable to launch. When I remove the files the game runs fine.

Overlay code:

#include "Example.h"

using namespace OF;

void Example::Setup()
{
	InitFramework(m_device, m_spriteBatch, m_window);
	box = CreateBox(10, 10, 50, 50);
}

void Example::Render()
{
	DrawBox(box, 255, 0, 0);
}
