When hooking DXGI-based graphics programs in the hook, the first hook
point is IDXGISwapChain::Present. To be able to initiate a capture, a
pointer to the device context that created the swap chain is required,
which can be retrieved via IDXGISwapChain::GetDevice. Determining
whether the device context was D3D10 or D3D11 has always been somewhat
of an issue due to D3D10 and D3D11 being nearly identical, as well as
their interoperability/interchangeability. The GetDevice function would
first be called with the UUID of ID3D10Device, then if that failed,
the UUID of ID3D11Device.
However, with certain specific D3D11 games, GetDevice would for some
unknown reason succeed with the UUID of ID3D10Device, which would cause
capture to fail. (Conversely, attempting to call GetDevice with the
UUID of ID3D11Device on a device that's actually ID3D10Device would
always succeed, so reversing the order of the test was not an option).
There were originally three known D3D11 games that would erroneously
succeed when querying a D3D10 device interface: Call of Duty: Ghosts,
Just Cause 3, and theHunter: Call of the Wild. All other known D3D11
games would work correctly. Because it was only these three games, a
hack was originally implemented in the form of an executable exception
list that would force them to capture D3D11.
Unfortunately, Oculus games are now failing under the same circumstance
as well, so a simple hack will no longer work. To fix this, a more
reliable method of detecting which context it is had to be discovered:
simply check the feature level using ID3D11Device::GetFeatureLevel. If
the feature level is D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL_11_0 or D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL_11_1,
the device is definitely a D3D11 device. Otherwise, continue the tests
as they were before. Successfully tested with many D3D10 games, many
D3D11 games, and especially those three D3D11 games that previously were
detected as D3D10 erroneously.
Changes "class" prioritization to attempt to find the window either with
the same title, or the next window of the same window class (window
type), changes "title" prioritization to only find the window based
upon its title, and changes "executable" prioritization to attempt to
find the window with the same title, or the next window of the same
executable.
Additionally changes the text associated with these selections to
clarify that functionality to users.
When kaspersky is installed on windows 7, FindWindowEx will fail to find
any windows due to apparently being blocked by kaspersky, so detect when
that happens, and fall back to GetWindow instead if it does.
Using and creating a window can use issues in game capture if multiple
game captures are active, so revert back to using a mutex, and just
ignore the keepalive check failure if injected inside a UWP program
(only check to see if GetLastError reports that it's not found -- if it
returns access denied or any other error, assume it's in a UWP program,
and ignore the keepalive check).
If the backbuffer count is larger than 3, it could still try to assign
backbuffers to pointers beyond the variable's array size when calling
swap->GetBuffer.
Due to using FindWindowEx to search for certain windows, certain windows
will show up that aren't usable/capturable. Prevent these windows from
showing up in the window lists.
For some unknown reason, GetWindow will not traverse the entire window
tree. It could be due to Microsoft purposely hiding certain UWP
windows, though the reason is unknown. For some equally unknown reason
FindWindowEx does work in its place.
This fixes the issue of not being able to find/capture certain windows,
such as halo 5: forge.
D3D12 capture does not take in to account when multiple backbuffers are
in used. With previous versions of Direct3D there was no need to do
this, but with D3D12 you must explicitly capture each specific
backbuffer currently in use.
If capturing a UWP window, do not fall back to matching windows with the
same window class if the exact window is not found, as this will get any
other UWP window on the system (due to the fact that they all have the
same window class name).
Because the hook cannot get the window handle of UWP windows, fall back
to using the window handle stored in the game capture source itself if
it's unavailable from the hook.
Under certain circumstances, the program may not be able to acquire the
window thread ID for a UWP process, but will be able to acquire the
process ID. In this case, it should soft fail and retry, rather than
assume it's unacquirable and stop trying to reacquire.
The "attempting to hook [executable]" message would not display the
correct executable if it's fallen back to a different window with the
same window class.
Now that the game capture hook creates and controls all the
synchronization objects, it's no longer possible to expect that the hook
is fully loaded by the time game capture tries to initialize it. In
that case, allow game capture to retry the hook for a few frames before
assuming something failed.
This detects whether the target process is a UWP process, and then uses
the open_app_* functions for mutexes/events/mapping. Also slightly
refactors named object open functions.
The only way to open named kernel objects within a UWP "app" is to get
the AppContainer SID, and then open the objects with their full
system namespace names via undocumented NT functions.
