Key Features​

• Doxygen Documentation: In-depth, clean, and organized documentation across all modules using Doxygen comments. This facilitates an easy understanding of the codebase for contributors.
  
• Hook Management System: A powerful hook manager that leverages compile-time validation and tokenized hook identifiers. Hooks can be easily created, managed, and removed with minimal code, providing an organized way to inject functionality into the game.
  
• Interactive ImGui Menu: Features a customizable and modern UI built with ImGui, allowing real-time configuration and control over cheat options.

Project Structure​

• core: Contains essential components for initializing and configuring the project:
  • bootstrap: Sets up and manages the foundational settings and system initialization.
    
  • ui: Manages the ImGui-based user interface, providing customizable and responsive UI elements for in-game controls.
• systems: Core systems that provide the cheat's primary functionalities:
  • render: Handles graphics rendering for UI elements and overlays.
    
  • input: Processes user inputs, allowing for customizable control bindings and cheat toggling.
    
  • hooker: Manages the creation, registration, and removal of hooks, using the powerful hook management system.
    
  • module & pattern parser: Implements memory scanning and pattern matching, enabling fast, compile-time optimized access to function addresses in the game's memory.
• utils: Contains helper functions and utility classes.
  
• third_party: Contains external libraries that the project depends on:
  • imgui: A popular, lightweight library for creating graphical user interfaces, used here to build intuitive in-game menus.
    
  • minhook: A versatile, minimalistic hooking library.
• valve: Implements the Source 2 SDK to support Valve’s games and engine structures.

Requirements​

• C++20/23-compliant compiler
