Payday 2 LUA Hook TUT (Easy)

[FreeStyleSloth]

Thanks for clicking meh :P Enjoy the tutorial!

Malware Scans:
Jotti's Malware: 0/22
VirusTotal Scan: 0/41
Install
========

1) Copy everything over to Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta\
- iphlpapi.dll
- lua directory
- dump directory

2) Run PAYDAY 2/Payday 2 Beta and the hack will be loaded.



Usage
=====

Insert - Run script.lua
Delete - Spawn an AI Mob that will help fight - works only in Single Player or if you are the host!


Details
======

iphlpapi.dll is imported by payday2_win32_release.exe, it's the easiest way to make sure the hooks are loaded as the game loads.
payday2_win32_release.exe makes use of SteamAPI_RestartAppIfNecessary making sure steam runs the game.



Script Overriding
=================

The main feature of Cache is to override the core LUA scripts allowing for more control over what can be done in the game.
I felt too limited by just running some LUA script.

Cache will override any scripts found in Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta\lua
also will dump any scripts used in XML files to Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta\dump

if you wish to override these move it to Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta\lua\xml and change the file extension from .txt to .lua



Crashing
========
If your game crashes check out the crash.txt file in AppData\Local\PAYDAY 2
chances are a script you are modifying has a bug in it.





Help I can't find any games on crime.net!
==========================================

You can either delete NetworkMatchMakingSTEAM.lua from Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta\lua or make sure that
NetworkMatchMakingSTEAM._BUILD_SEARCH_INTEREST_KEY has the correct version, which you can compare to Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta\game.ver

BUG FIXES:

Game crashes when you go to sights:

FIX: Go to Barrel Extensions, click the second extension and then click the sights tab. DO NOT CLICK THE FIRST SIGHT. IT WILL CRASH YOUR GAME!!

Can't see anyone when you search for matches??

Ofc he did =3

Well he needs to give credits to Sloth then.

[FreeStyleSloth]

My friend sent it to me, he posted it on another forum. Only reason why I put Sloth is because he said I can have the "licensing"

I can't post links, it says "You're not allowed to post links"

[kwoolley91]

I am confused, is this for beta or full?

[matthew5371x]

It was originally for the beta.. so it doesn't work for the full game.

[FreeStyleSloth]

I've recompiled it so it works for the official release.

[kwoolley91]

So follow the above directions, but put it in the Payday 2 folder rather than the beta folder correct?

[matthew5371x]

Oh? What all does it do then. I really just need money and XP and if possible skillpoints

Exactly.

I've set it so that when you activate it you get level 30, 5000000000$ and 1337 skill points.
