Title is pretty descriptive. I need a way to detect the first and last map of the campaign. Method would be used in a versus environment. Hardcoding the map names is not an option for me, as I run tons of custom maps.

Anyone got any ideas?

You could try to get the return value of CDirector::IsFirstMapInScenario (_ZNK9CDirector20IsFirstMapInScenarioEv)

For last map maybe check for finale ? Though might be tricky if you have maps that have mutliple finales through out the campaign.

Edit: Found CTerrorGameRules::IsMissionFinalMap (_ZN16CTerrorGameRules17IsMissionFinalMapEv)

PHP Code:

CDirector::IsFirstMapInScenario(CDirector *__hidden this) 


Not sure what parameters to pass for CDirector members. This didn't work for me, but I'm a novice when it comes to SDK calls. Any help?

PHP Code:

If the call type is GameRules, then nothing special needs to be passed. 


PHP Code:

handle hIsMissionFinalMap;
    
// Preparing SDK Call for IsFirstMapInScenario
hGameConf = LoadGameConfigFile("sdkcalltest");
StartPrepSDKCall(SDKCall_GameRules);
PrepSDKCall_SetFromConf(hGameConf, SDKConf_Signature, "CTerrorGameRules::IsMissionFinalMap");
PrepSDKCall_SetReturnInfo(SDKType_Bool, SDKPass_ByValue);
hIsFirstMapInScenario= EndPrepSDKCall();
if(hIsMissionFinalMap== INVALID_HANDLE)
{
    ThrowError("Failed to find CTerrorGameRules::IsMissionFinalMap signature.");
}

SDKCall(hIsMissionFinalMap)

Check info_changelevel || trigger_changelevel on map ? (For Finale)

None. It takes no parameters. What you pasted from IDA is telling you it's a non-static member function.

PHP Code: If the call type is GameRules, then nothing special needs to be passed.

If you're calling a plain non-member function (or I guess a static member function), you just pass the parameters to SDKCall. If you're calling a normal member function, SM needs to know which thing to call it on. But when you call StartPrepSDKCall saying it's a game rules call, SM already knows what to do.

Would it work on all maps? Just checking, if some custom maps may have used some other triggers?

In that case, how do I retrieve the return value? I would assume this sort of function would return a boolean value. How and where do I store that value?

Why so complicated. May wanna add trigger_changelevel too tho.

PHP Code:

stock bool IsFinalMap()
{
    return (FindEntityByClassname(-1, "info_changelevel") == -1
                && FindEntityByClassname(-1, "trigger_changelevel") == -1);
}

Your method would work, but I want to learn SDK calls. Just not sure why it’s not working.

The return value of the function will be SDKCall's return value in cases where it's not a string/array.
