Panorama V8 support for lua

luv8 - Panorama V8 support for lua

build

1. download and install moonc compiler
2. ./moonc panorama.moon

install

ev0lve

• use the workshop version on forum

primordial

• use the workshop version on forum
• the workshop version may be outdated (due to @Shir0ha being lazy af DEAD), please use the prebuilt version or build one yourself

fatality

• use the prebuilt version or build one yourself

legendware

• use the prebuilt version or build one yourself
• released on forum

pandora

• use the prebuilt version or build one yourself
• released on forum

memesense

• tbh this cheat, especially the lua ffi api is the worst I've ever seen
• a lot of things didn't work lmao and I had to implement some ghetto workarounds
• crashes when return certain objects (for instance the function $.Msg) FOR NO REASON, like it's not even an issue with my code, I just called UIEngine[113] (RunScript) AND AFTER 1 SECOND (YES IT'S NOT INSTANT CRASH) THE CHEAT WILL FUCK ITSELF UP
• congrats for being the first cheat that can't properly support panorama lib
• use the prebuilt version or build one yourself

other cheats

• luv8 currently only provides compatibility with ev0lve, primordial, pandora, legendware, memesense and fatality, if you wish to use it on other cheats feel free to add more to the compatibility layer and/or contribute code by pr. Contributions are welcomed.

API

panorama.loadstring

panorama.loadstring(js_code: string[, panel: string]) : function

compiles the given Javascript code inside the v8::Context of the specified panel and returns a function handle for calling the compiled code

panorama.open

panorama.open([panel: string]) : table (V8PersistentProxy)

opens a handle to the v8 global object of the v8::Context of the specified panel and returns a V8PersistentProxy

panorama.RunScript

panorama.RunScript(js_code: string[, panel: ffi::void*[, xml_context: string]]) : ffi::int

executes the given Javascript code with CUIEngine::RunScript()

panorama.GetPanel

panorama.GetPanel(panel: string[, fallback: string]): ffi::void* (UIPanel)

returns a pointer to the given panel name, raises error upon failure

• primordial
  • public testing of this library happened on primordial.dev

some other stuff

• old footage of the panorama lib before it was rewritten in moonscript
• confusing stuff when we were trying to figure out globalizeReference
• table overflow error due to our previously retarded vtable_thunk implementation
• ??????????
