G2D

Description

1. G2D aims to convert GUI to DGS without a lot of complex steps. 2. There are 2 versions of G2D:

• 1) Server-sided G2D script converter (G2DSC)
  • G2DSC is used to convert GUI functions/events to DGS ones by editing scripts. (Useful for converting scripts created by GUI Editor, but it will cause a lot of errors/bugs if you make it convert complicated scripts, because of compatibility)
• 2) Client-sided G2D hooker (G2D Hooker)
  • G2D Hooker is used to convert complex scripts by injecting hooker before executing the script instead of editing files. (The hooker is valid in one resource)
