DC-SDK

DC-SDK has two targets. dc::sdk is a static library for tools and editors that work on Drift City's files and needs nothing beyond the standard library. dc::runtime is a header-only layer for mods that run inside the game, with the helper that rebases the executable's addresses to where Windows loaded it.

#include <dc/dc.h>

auto table = dc::xlt_read(L"VehicleList.xlt");
if (!table) return fail(table.error().message);

int name = table->col(L"Vehicle Name");
for (size_t i = 0; i < table->size(); ++i)
    print(table->cell(i, name));

What it covers

• Archives: the game's NayaPack .agt files, read, written, extracted whole and repacked from a folder.
• Data tables: the 49 UTF-16 tables that hold the game's numbers.
• World files: the collision mesh, read and written, and readers for the LIF, LOI, CHPATH and XiPath2 formats.
• Classes: typed views over the game's 40 confirmed classes and stubs for Gamebryo's 511 across its 11 libraries.
• Data: 30-odd files of extracted tables, from vehicles and shops to quests and audio.

Errors come back as dc::Result values. The facts it is built on are written up in DC-Encyclopedia.
