[Release] flywc (Window Manager)

[mcoocr]

Greetings Flyffers,

ever got bothered by hundreds of opened Flyff instances which block your entire taskbar..? got a solution for you fellows!

Took me a few days to code the flywc tool - this "beauty" hunts down every Flyff window and organizes it into a single, slick window.




Once added, you can switch between those Flyff instances within a smooth Tab-Selection, where, of course, every tab can also be renamed by double-clicking to keep things clean. New instances can be added and deleted on the fly (by menu or middle-mouseclick).

Furthermore there are options to change the target-process name of the Flyff instances which is searched for (default process is Neuz.exe), and to automatically add all found instances on startup of the tool.

Note that fullscreen instances of Flyff may not be added (didn't tried that tho), and also that all instances which are not selected are minimized to save CPU time. Every added instance gets restored to its initial window-state on program exit.


@ props at this point to Demon who came up with the idea for an flyff "window manager" on another forum (and which i totally copied this idea from..)


If the tool refuses to run, you may check if recent C++ Runtimes are installed.

Source included, created with Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition (not buildable on x64)

I didn‘t tried it but it should, as long as you dont run it in fullscreen mode.

hey nice work could you add like a windowed fullscreen mode? where you can see your hotbar ingame? now its pushed down when i play in 1920 *1080 (windowed)

Seems like making the tabs-bar dropping down from top when hovering over it with the mouse (if it runs in full-resolution) is the smartest way to solve this.

Maybe if i’m getting bored i‘ll take a check on that, tho i don‘t promise anything. 🙂

@ you deserve a thank because what you did is just great and useful for many users, bot makers,...
By the way, you could make this work for the official flyff too if you change your EnumWindowsProc routine.
Dont search for visible windows using the Process ID, just use a window title (for example windows that have a title like "%Flyff%", or a class "D3D Window", class = "saida" for Official,..).

I didn't look at your source in detail but if I am not wrong, you don't really need the process id, just the Hwnd.

Or you could bypass OpenProcess() by loading your own NTDLL, thats how we do to read/write Neuz memory when noob GG is loading

Kinda curious on how flyff manages with the changes of the window size if you're resizing it to a specific size for the application (haven't checked how this handles things), because normally there is some dx9 shit you would have to go through to make a client be able to resize properly without failing.

Also, maybe you should add an option to set a client to a "minimize" state, as most servers rarely handle minimize correctly -- either they stop the entire network process or just continue to render the client regardless. Kinda surprised it's not already included, but thanks for the source.

I am also surprised you never released that there. Quite shocking actually. I am not one to get mad at taking ideas; heck, I replicate everyone's crap anyway. But, taking it from another forum to not post it there is a "what"? But that is kinda off topic.

Demon came with a good idea, so yes, props to him. I do believe there are other ways you can go about this though to make it more stylish, and more effective rather than bland -- but then again, if anyone is interested in doing that, thanks for the source.

When i coded this i didn‘t thought about that, the goal was to achive functionality for private servers... you got a point there, official Flyff doesn‘t even have a minimize function if i remember right.

But it actually doesn‘t resizes the Neuz, it resizes the flywc window around it.

OT: The reason why i have not released it there is simple, their forum admin locked everyone out of Release section who has not reached a specific post count (which i have not)... normally i would have released it there too / first. Feel free to put it there.

Some quicky updates:

- added 2 options for Neuz detection: by window title and by window class (thx @ for advice, choose one of those to make flywc compatible with offi server)
- added option to enable / disable minimize functionality
- removed case sensitive checks for any detection method (for the sake of simplicity)
- borderless fullscreen windows can't be added anymore (since they are cut off, sorry @ didn't had enough time to implement an hoverbar)
- safer file read / write for configuration
- removed todo's (oh boi..)





Source and executables updated.

Have fun ~mcoocr

If im minimalize my offi screens ( save cpu option ) and want to get them back both windows got freezed or just white screen, other tools stop working and need to reopen clients.

Actually, I'm surprised that nobody came up with this before.
Great work!
