Log calls and intercept arguments \u0026 return values. DLL written in C.\n\n## Getting started\n\n### Prerequisites\nMicrosoft Visual Studio 2019 (preferably latest version i.e. 16.1.6), platform toolset v142 and Windows SDK 10.0 are required in order to compile vac-hooks. If you don't have ones, you can download VS [here](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/) (Windows SDK is installed during Visual Studio Setup).\n\n### Cloning\nThe very first step in order to compile vac-hooks is to clone this repo from GitHub to your local computer. Git is required to step futher, if not installed download it [here](https://git-scm.com). Open git bash / git cmd / cmd and enter following command:\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/danielkrupinski/vac-hooks.git\n```\n`vac-hooks` folder should have been succesfully created, containing all the source files.\n\n### Compiling from source\n\nWhen you have equiped a copy of source code, next step is opening **vac-hooks.sln** in Microsoft Visual Studio 2019.\n\nThen change build configuration to `Release | x86` and simply press **Build solution**.\n\nIf everything went right you should receive `vac-hooks.dll`  binary file.\n\n### Loading\n\nOpen **Steam** as Administrator, then open your favorite [DLL injector](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DLL_injection) (as an admin too) and inject `vac-hooks.dll` into `Steam.exe` process.\n\nAfter injection you should see `vac-hooks.txt` log file in **Steam installation directory** (e.g. `C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam`). The log file contains names of WinAPI functions being called by VAC, their parameters and return values.\n\n## See also\n- [VAC](https://github.com/danielkrupinski/vac) - source code of Valve Anti-Cheat obtained from disassembly of compiled modules","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdanielkrupinski%2Fvac-hooks","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdanielkrupinski%2Fvac-hooks","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdanielkrupinski%2Fvac-hooks/lists"}
