[Coding] Current Map / CGame

**r00tay** · 02-14-2010, 07:53 PM

Hey there,

I'm currently coding a BF2 radar hack (with separate radar window for dual screen users).
I already got lots of information from the BF2 D3D Radar Function-thread, but something's still missing: i was not able to find a way to get the name (or any identifier) for the current map (to display the correct map as a background).
In the BF2 SDK i saw that CGame would provide a string mapName

Code:

class CGame
{
public:
    virtual int addRef(); //
    virtual int getRef(); //
    virtual int release(); //
    virtual void* queryInterface(int id); //
        char unknown4[56]; //0x0004
    string mapName; //0x003C  
};

however, i was not able to find an address for it. Is CGame obtainable via ClassManager or do i have to find it myself?

Have you got any information or ideas on how to identify the map currently played?
Any help would be very appreciated.

It changes every game, but you can get it in classmanager by the string "Game"

Code:

pGame = (CGame*) pClassManager->GetClassPointerByName(&string("Game"));

So you got to check this like every frame or work out something yourself...
Btw. you also have a virtual function for getting the map name in BFHeroes, its numer 61. And number 62 is for GameMode
