**Textractor** (a.k.a. NextHooker) is an open-source x86/x64 video game text hooker for Windows/Wine based off of [ITHVNR](http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/438331-ITHVNR-ITH-with-the-VNR-engine).<br>
|
|
Watch the [tutorial video](https://tinyurl.com/textractor-tutorial) for a quick rundown on using it.

## Support

Please let me know of any bugs, games that Textractor has trouble hooking, feature requests, or other suggestions.<br>
|
|
If you have trouble hooking a game please email me a place where I can freely download it, or gift it to me on [Steam](https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198097566313/).

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
All contributions are appreciated! Please email (no, I'm not busy!) me at akashmozumdar@gmail.com if you have any questions about the codebase.<br>
|
|
You should use the standard process of making a pull request (fork, branch, commit changes, make PR from your branch to my master).<br>
|
|
Contributing a translation is easy: just translate the strings in text.cpp as well as this README.
|
|
|
|
## Compiling
|
|
|
|
Before compiling *Textractor*, you should get Visual Studio with CMake support, as well as Qt version 5.13<br>
|
|
You should then be able to simply open the folder in Visual Studio, and build. Run Textractor.exe.
|
|
|
|
## Project Architecture
|
|
|
|
The host (see GUI/host folder) injects texthook.dll (created from the texthook folder) into the target process and connects to it via 2 pipe files.<br>
|
|
Host writes to hostPipe, texthook writes to hookPipe.<br>
|
|
texthook waits for the pipe to be connected, then injects a few instructions into any text outputting functions (e.g. TextOut, GetGlyphOutline) that cause their input to be sent through the pipe.<br>
|
|
Additional information about hooks is exchanged via shared memory.<br>
|
|
The text that the host receives through the pipe is then processed a little before being dispatched back to the GUI.<br>
|
|
Finally, the GUI dispatches the text to extensions before displaying it.
