**Textractor** (a.k.a. NextHooker) is an open-source x86/x64 video game text hooker for Windows 7+ (and Wine) based off of [ITHVNR](https://web.archive.org/web/20160202084144/http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/438331-ITHVNR-ITH-with-the-VNR-engine).<br>

|
Watch the [tutorial video](docs/TUTORIAL.md) for a quick rundown on using it.

|
|
|
## Support
|
|
|
|
Let me know of any bugs, games that Textractor has trouble hooking, feature requests, or other suggestions by posting an issue.<br>
|
|
If you have trouble hooking a game, please show me a way to freely download it or gift it to me on [Steam](https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198097566313/).

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
All contributions are appreciated! Please email 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: text.cpp contains all of the text strings that you need to translate. Translations of this README or the tutorial video transcript are also welcome.
|
|
|
|
## Compiling
|
|
Before compiling Textractor, you need Qt version 5.13 and Visual Studio with CMake support.
|
|
Clone Textractor's source and initialize submodules with `git clone https://github.com/Artikash/Textractor.git` and `git submodule update --init`.
|
|
You should then be able to just open the source folder in Visual Studio and build.
|
|
|
|
## Project Architecture
|
|
|
|
The host injects texthook into the target process and connects to it via 2 pipe files.
|
|
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.
