Description

Upon launching the server I get an "Entry Point Not Found"-message with regards to "RtlPcToFileHeader". Both game.cstrike.ext and sdktools.ext fail to load with "The specified procedure could not be found.".

The last working SourceMod version for my setup (before Valve dropped the Feb 18 updates) was 1.11.0.6970. I also tried just updating the gamedata there to no avail.

Steps to Reproduce

No response

This doesn't appear to be a duplicate after all, as the issue persists with 1.12.0.7192. RtlPcToFileHeader exists only in the 64 bit version of Kernel32 on Windows versions prior to Windows 10. I'm running both SrcDS and SourceMod in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit OS.

This regression is related to SafetyHook: https://github.com/alliedmodders/safetyhook/blob/main/src/os.windows.cpp#L111

Just in case anyone else is waiting for a fix, here's a quick and dirty way to get SourceMod going again for the time being:

I've edited the Import Lookup Table in the DLL's that fail to load with a hex editor, replacing RtlPcToFileHeader with Beep from Kernel32.

To be precise, replace the byte sequence

52746C5063546F46696C6548656164657200

by

426565700000000000000000000000000000

in all of the DLL's for which you get the "Entry Point Not Found" message box.

For me these were

game.cstrike.ext.2.css.dll
game.tf2.ext.2.tf2.dll
sdktools.ext.2.css.dll
sdktools.ext.2.tf2.dll

With this, SourceMod now loads fine and all my plugins are back in working order. After checking with a debugger, the function never appears to be called, at least with my setup.
