cs2-dumper: Breaking Changes in the Latest Merge to Main Branch

In the recent merge of the dev branch into main, several breaking changes may impact some people relying on the generated files for inclusion in their projects.

Most notably:

Code Style Conventions

Generated files now follow specific code style conventions depending on the programming language:

C++ header files: Use snake_case naming convention, where words are separated by underscores (e.g., field_name).
C# files: Follow the PascalCase convention, where each word, including the first, starts with an uppercase letter (e.g., FieldName).
Rust files: Employ a combination of snake_case for variables and functions (e.g., field_name) and UPPER_CAMEL_CASE for constants (e.g., CONSTANT_NAME).

// Edit: No longer applies to class, field or enum names.

Consolidated Schema System Data

Previously, any module containing any schema-system registrations was written independently as a separate file, e.g., client.dll.hpp. The new approach consolidates all schema-system related data into a single file, E.g. schema.hpp. Within this file, modules are now separated into different scopes. This change was aimed at eventually making it easier to include the generated files in your project.

i need client.dll & offsets.json

this is a really bad update not going to lie. stuffing a bunch of files into one file and making it 20,445 lines was not the solution. what’s going to happen is a big split, people using the old version of the dumper, and the new one. personally, i will be sticking with the old one.

I pushed the most recently generated files from the previous codebase to the archive branch.

Thanks to everyone for your feedback.

I think this can be closed now, as all of the “controversial” changes have essentially been reverted.

If you have any new suggestions for improvements to the repo, please open a new issue. 👍

Worst thing you could have done in my opinion. Don’t have access to the old tool either, archive branch will be outdated in less than a week, then i’m relying on good old UC. thanks a lot.

the stuff is still there just in different places, all you have to do is search up the new names.

“new names” the names of the offsets should of never changed, they should of had the same names and been in the same class’s, if he does keep it this way there will be alot of UC posts with different named offsets and such.

I already undid that change.

Regarding schema file generation, I’ve now reverted to the previous method of creating a new file for each module. I’ll push these changes shortly.

I’m considering going back to the prior approach for this. However, doing this did have its reasons at the time.

Would like to know others thoughts.

client.dll & offsets.json ihtiyacım var

En son oluşturulan dosyaları önceki kod tabanından arşiv dalına gönderdim.

this is better than the new system

I pushed the most recently generated files from the previous codebase to the archive branch. thanks for the answer and will the `archive branch’ always be updated…?

I can’t find many offsets
