[1.298] Log GM "+commands"

[quote name='twostars' timestamp='1296416025' post='96']
Worried about giving your GMs access to commands? Afraid they'll abuse it for their own personal gain? Say no more!

...okay, anyway...
This patch will log all used GM commands (that is, "+commands") to the ChattingLog file (the other commands would be extremely fiddly.. and make the patch a whoooole lot larger).

Find your way to CUser::Chat() and replace:


With a jump to our code-cave:

Kod:

00498AA8  .^E9 B4FEFFFF   JMP 00498961
00498AAD    90          NOP
00498AAE    90          NOP
00498AAF    90          NOP
00498AB0    90          NOP
00498AB1    90          NOP
00498AB2    90          NOP
00498AB3    90          NOP

Woo! Lots of NOPs there.

Now go up to our code-cave at 00498961 and assemble this:

Kod:

00498961  > 60          PUSHAD
00498962    50          PUSH EAX
00498963    FFB6 98800000  PUSH DWORD PTR DS:[ESI+8098]
00498969    68 59894900   PUSH 00498959             ;  ASCII "%s: %s"
0049896E    8D85 DCEBFFFF  LEA EAX,DWORD PTR SS:[EBP-1424]
00498974    50          PUSH EAX
00498975    E8 267D0600   CALL 005006A0
0049897A    83C4 10      ADD ESP,10
0049897D    8D85 DCEBFFFF  LEA EAX,DWORD PTR SS:[EBP-1424]
00498983    8B8E 48870000  MOV ECX,DWORD PTR DS:[ESI+8748]
00498989    50          PUSH EAX
0049898A    E8 61B4F6FF   CALL 00403DF0
0049898F    61          POPAD
00498990    56          PUSH ESI
00498991    50          PUSH EAX
00498992    E8 3E89F6FF   CALL 004012D5
00498997    E9 4F080000   JMP 004991EB

Next bit is slightly trickier, as it's not a simple "Assemble". We'll have to allocate our formatted string at 00498959.

So, jump to 00498959 and select the following:

Kod:

00498959    CC          INT3
0049895A    CC          INT3
0049895B    CC          INT3
0049895C    CC          INT3
0049895D    CC          INT3
0049895E    CC          INT3
0049895F    CC          INT3

Right-click the selected lines, and hit "Binary" -> "Edit".
In ASCII, it is important you type:

Kod:

%s: %s

Then in the "HEX" box, select the last byte, "CC", and type in 00.

You can see what it should be in the following screenshot, just in case you're confused:


Save Ebenezer, and the patch is done!

PS: Just a bit busy too explain what's being done this time, sorry. Back to non-KO stuffs.
