Believe there are some tutorials already out there. You can get linux functions pretty easily, the windows signatures i believe is just guess work from what you can see in the linux output. I personnally havent gotten too far with IDA just enough to figure out how to get around needing a signature.

Could you tell which function you are trying to get the signature on?

Yeah, you're not going to get far with Windows DLLs alone.

Linux server binaries (except CS:GO, which has symbols stripped) have mangled function names which are easily unmangled, so you can easily find functions in those; you can refer to such functions by that name for gamedata purposes.

On Windows server binaries, you get no such convenience; all the subroutines are unnamed. You'll have to locate your functions some other way. In a few cases, you can get functions by finding a unique xref to a string used in the function (after finding the named function on Linux first), otherwise you might have to navigate a few calls to / from where you want to find a function with a string as before.
