Remarks

Commandlet for processing UE packet captures, through Oodle's training API, for generating compressed state dictionaries.

Primary Commands:

  • "AutoGenerateDictionaries Changelist":

  • Iterates every directory recursively within "*Game*\Saved\Oodle\Server", and uses all capture files within each directory, to generate a dictionary stored in "*Game*\Content\Oodle", named "*Game**DirectoryName*.udic".

  • For example, packet captures in "OrionGame\Saved\Oodle\Server\Input", will be generated into a dictionary stored in "OrionGame\Content\Oodle\OrionGameInput.udic"

  • Each folder within "*Game*\Content\Oodle", should contain at least 100mb of packet captures.

  • Changelist is an optional parameter than will only use upac files that contain the changelist in their filenames. If omitted, all files in the directory are used.

Secondary/Testing Commands:

  • "Enable":

  • Inserts the Oodle PacketHandler into the games packet handler component list, and initializes Oodle *Engine.ini settings

  • "MergePackets OutputFile PacketFile1,PacketFile2,PacketFileN":

  • Takes the specified packet capture files, and merges them into a single packet capture file

  • "MergePackets OutputFile All Directory":

  • As above, but merges all capture files in the specified directory.

  • "GenerateDictionary OutputFile FilenameFilter Changelist PacketFile1,PacketFile2,PacketFileN":

  • Takes the specified packet capture files, with an optional filter for a substring of a filename and changelist filter (use "all" to ignore either of these filters), and uses them to generate a network compression dictionary

  • "GenerateDictionary OutputFile FilenameFilter Changelist All Directory":

  • As above, but uses all capture files in the specified directory, to generate a network compression dictionary

  • "DebugDump OutputDirectory CaptureDirectory Changelist"

  • Recursively iterates all .ucap files in CaptureDirectory, and converts them to Oodle-example-code compatible .bin files, in OutputDirectory

Unimplemented commands:

  • "PacketInfo PacketFile":

  • Outputs information about the packet file, such as the MB amount of data recorded, per net connection channel, and data types

Only implement, if deciding to actually capture/track this kind of data

Constructors

Functions

Name Description

Public function Static

bool

 

GetMergeMapFromList

(
    const TArray< FString >& FileList,
    TMap< FArchive*, FString >& O...
)

Converts a list of capture files to merge, into a map of file archives vs file names (doing all necessary verification etc.)

Public function

bool

 

HandleAutoGenerateDictionaries

(
    int32 ChangelistNumber
)

Handles the 'AutoGenerateDictionaries' command, which is used to automatically detect packet captures and produce dictionaries

Public function

bool

 

HandleDebugDumpPackets

(
    FString OutputDirectory,
    FString SourceDirectory,
    const TArray< FString >& DumpList
)

Handles the 'DebugDump' command, which is used to take a directory of .ucap files, and output a directory of Oodle-example-code compatible .bin files, in SourceDirectory

Public function Static

bool

 

HandleEnable()

Handles the 'enable' command, which enables the Oodle packet handler component

Public function

bool

 

HandleMergePackets

(
    FString OutputCapFile,
    const TArray< FString >& MergeList
)

Handles the 'MergePackets' command, which is used to merge multiple packet capture files

Public function Static

bool

 

VerifyOutputFile

(
    FString OutputFile
)

Checks that the output file does not already exist, and prompts for an overwrite, if it does

Overridden from UCommandlet
