Why doesn't modern start? #642

Hello everyone!
I put together a project and launched it install.py (by the way, you need to fix the "Unpack zip into gta sa" in it, because there will already be a contrib folder in git_repo_root), but there are no differences in the game.
According to the code, there should be some kind of console in dllmain (?), but it is not there. Taking a third-party console, DebugConsole, nothing is output, even my printf("Hello world!") before ul_reason_for_call is not output.
So I want to ask you, what am I doing wrong, why is Modern not loading?

It seems that our ASI doesn't get loaded to the game. Can you try running contrib/link_asi.bat with admin rights and follow its instructions?

Though, to be warned, code right now is very unstable. You might just straight up can't play the game.

I found a mistake

By default, the ImGui project is being launched, not gta_reversed, you need to click on gta_reversed and click "assign as a startup project"
You need to configure debugging in the gta_reversed project, namely:
Configuration property -> Debugging -> Command Set gta_sa.exe
Configuration Property -> Debugging -> Working Directory Set the working directory, that is, the game build folder (the folder where you selected gta_sa.exe )

Then, when debugging in Visual Studio, Modern will start, although why does not Visual Studio start without debugging the question...
You were right "code right now is very unstable. You might just straight up can't play the game.". I really couldn't run the game 😔

P.S. if anything, I'm sorry for my translation into English

P. S. S. But I would like to know why this error occurs, because it is less dependent on the reverse code

Does it not load, or does it crash?
Because by looking at what you posted it does load, but crashes.

Modern is loaded into Debug Visual Studio and crashes, without VS it doesn't even load

Are you compiling using "Debug" mode?
Release is known not to work.
Could you send me a screenshot of your GTA root directory (where gta_sa.exe is), and the /scripts directory as well?
Thanks

Yes, I compile in Debug mode, because there are some errors during the Release.

Pirulax Dec 12, 2023

Yeah everything seems alright.
Could you open the location the symlink points at?
To see if it's correct. Where it point to should be a gta_reversed.asi file.
Screenshot that folder as well.

After analyzing it for some more time, I noticed that modern is loaded only when it is debagged, although this should not be the case.

I have already tried to put the ASI and PDB files themselves in the game directory and in the script folder, but the game does not read them. What kind of nonsense is this?)

After experimenting with loading ASI, I realized THAT PERHAPS ASI Loaders, for example from Silent or ThirteenAG, simply do not load too large ASI, or why another plugin could not call Modern also remains a mystery...

There is no logical explanation.

Just follow the instructions in the readme and it should work.

rafael049 Feb 4, 2024

I already followed. I have gta san andreas with the compact executable, I have the asi loader working, and the gta_reversed.asi is being compiled and there is a symbolic link to it in the scripts folder. It should be working right?

Pirulax Feb 4, 2024
Maintainer

Yeah, exactly
Given you don't have some other plugins installed as well.
Also, make sure it's not some stripped down release (like the newer steam stuff), as the game can crash because of missing audio files.
Also, make sure to compile using the premake5 project, not CMake (as CMake doesn't seem to produce a binary that works?). The latter isn't highlighted in the readme, because I'm not quite sure, and it's something @yukani was experimenting with.

rafael049 Feb 4, 2024

I compiled with CMake. I will try to compile with premake5. Thanks!

rafael049 Feb 4, 2024

It worked!

Yeah that's what I thought. I totally forgot about this, maybe this was the issue the other guy had too.

Hello everyone again, after a while I tried to return to running the plugin, after reading your dialogue with rafael049 above, I only realized that it was impossible to build using CMake now (or earlier), although at that time I built through the launch of premake5.bat, but that's okay.

Now the result is the same (why). Here are my steps:

My operating system:
Windows 10 21H2 19044.3633 from GHOST SPECTRE

Downloaded GTA from here and installed, replaced gta_sa.exe by this (even tried this one)

Then I executed the following commands:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/gta-reversed/gta-reversed-modern.git
cd gta-reversed-modern
premake5.bat

Launched the shortcut "gta_reversed.swf - Shortcut" using Visual Studio Community 2022 (17.9.6).

I'm looking at the properties of the project, here's what I have:

SDK version for Windows: 10.0.22621.0
Platform Toolkit: v143
"C++ Language Standard": 20
"C Language Standard": "Default (legacy MSVC)"

I change the following items in Debugging:

Command: <Directory-GTA>\gta_sa.exe
Working directory: <Directory-GTA>

Next, I press Ctrl + B and wait a long time.
After the build, I do the following:

Running CMD from the administrator.
cd gta-reversed-modern
python contrib/install.py
<Directory-GTA>
<Enter>

Next, I run the "Local Windows Debugger" in the same open VS 2022, almost immediately after launch, such an exception occurs and immediately here is its stack:

Hi @Vladik01-11, I can't reproduce your crash on my end. Can you try again with unpacking
this to your SA directory and symlinking the ASI via link_asi.bat instead of using install.py, preferably on a clean installation?

100% clean installed GTA build.
Just unpacked "gta_sa.zip" into a replacement assembly
Specified in the command instead of gta_sa.exe -> gta_sa_compact.exe
Launched link_asi.bat, the links are correct, point to the right files.

bat is still faulty, thinks that I run it without an administrator, but it is started by an administrator, so it is changed without checking for an administrator.

Launched the "Local Windows Debugger"
Exception:
