notes: |
  BAM, Better Arcade Mode, by Rafal Janicki. FPLoader.exe starts
  Future Pinball.exe suspended, writes the BAM.dll path into the new process
  with VirtualAllocEx and WriteProcessMemory, runs LoadLibraryA on it through
  CreateRemoteThread, waits for that thread and resumes the main one. Everything
  else lives in BAM.dll, which detours the running program. The loader is
  published as source; the shipped FPLoader.exe carries the same .text and
  .rdata as the build committed to that repository and differs only by an
  Authenticode blob, 9472 bytes against 5384.
  ref: BAM_FPloader FPLoader.cpp:259-305, FPLoader.exe .text sha1
  d5ca74154fe97002, PE timestamp 2016-04-25 19:17:12

  BAM.dll is searched in the loader's own directory first, then in
  C:\Games\Future Pinball\BAM\. Both missing puts up "Couldn't locate BAM.dll."
  and returns -1. Future Pinball.exe comes from /FPEXE if that switch names an
  existing file, otherwise from one level above the loader, then from the
  loader's directory, then from C:\Games\Future Pinball\; the same failure path
  reports "Couldn't locate Future Pinball.exe.". Before the process is created
  the loader prepends its own directory to %PATH% so the system resolves
  renderingengine.dll from there while the working directory is the game
  directory. /STAYINRAM keeps the loader alive until the game thread ends; the
  rest of the command line is handed to Future Pinball untouched, which is how
  /Open, /Play, /Exit and /ArcadeRender reach it.
  ref: BAM_FPloader FPLoader.cpp:40-48, 87-111, 166-240, 249-257

  BAM.dll is closed source. Its version resource reads 1.5.408 and its debug
  tags name BAM.cpp, dllmain.cpp, BallManager.cpp, RenderEngine.cpp,
  plugin.cpp, pbo.cpp, stereo3d.cpp and debug.cpp. Twenty five entry points are
  detoured in one pass: CreateFileA, CreateFileW, ReadFile, WriteFile,
  CloseHandle, GetFileSize, DeleteFileA, FindResourceA, LoadResource,
  LockResource, SizeofResource, CoCreateInstance, StgOpenStorage,
  GetOpenFileNameA, ChooseColorA, GetDlgItem, SendMessageA, ShowWindow,
  SwapBuffers, ChoosePixelFormat, SetPixelFormat, wglCreateContext,
  wglDeleteContext, wglMakeCurrent and wglGetProcAddress, with glFrustum,
  glTexImage2D and wglChoosePixelFormatARB taken separately. That is how BAM
  sees the program's own resource and file traffic and can answer it. Newton is
  reached through GetModuleHandleA on the copy Future Pinball already imported
  followed by GetProcAddress on 83 entry points; no second copy is loaded.
  ref: BAM.dll 1.5-408 .text:0x10082a75-0x10082f3d, 0x100831b3-0x100831d9,
  0x1002ab92-0x1002abeb, .rsrc version, debug tags Routed_glTexImage2D and
  Routed_wglChoosePixelFormatARB

  Every path BAM builds hangs off the directory holding BAM.dll. The module
  handle saved at load time goes through GetModuleFileNameA, the result is cut
  at the last separator, and one of two format strings finishes the job:
  "%s\%s.%s" for a name and an extension, "%s\%s" for the cfg subdirectory.
  Settings for a table are cfg\<table>.cfg and cfg\<table>.seq, with default.cfg
  and default.seq as the fallbacks.
  ref: BAM.dll 1.5-408 .text:0x10025e40-0x1002605a, 0x100319a0-0x10031d48,
  0x10032bdb-0x10032f23

  Keys are the one text file. bam.cfg is read with fopen_s and parsed as
  "%s = %s" lines over the names Menu, Menu2, Left, Right, Up, Down, Enter,
  Snapshot, 3DSwitch, SaveXML, SnapShotPath, SnapShotBackboxPath, HeadTracking,
  ForceArcadeMode, SwitchToNextBall, SwitchToPrevBall, RoomOnOff, Cam, Overlay,
  BallShadows and OverlayAspectFix. A Keyboard.cfg found beside it is renamed to
  bam.cfg first. RetroBat rewrites the two SnapShotPath lines before launching.
  ref: BAM.dll 1.5-408 .text:0x100c3960-0x100c3a97, .rdata:0x10654208-0x10654324,
  retrobat emulatorLauncher/Generators/Fpinball.Generator.cs:183-209

  A ball or a room is a zip of BMP/<id>.bmp entries named for the resource ids
  Future Pinball itself uses: the program carries 29 resources of type BMP and
  every id the shipped packs contain is one of them, 452 being the ball.
  balls\*.zip is walked with FindFirstFileA and each hit becomes a choice in the
  menu; default.zip in the BAM directory is applied without being chosen. The
  routed FindResourceA answers the nine SHADERS resources the same way, while
  the single XML resource, id 464, is read straight from the program by the save
  path and is what the presets under XML\ are edited copies of. The 83 GLSL
  programs BAM renders with are
  resources of type TEXT inside BAM.dll, so no shader file is read from disk.
  ref: BAM.dll 1.5-408 .text:0x1002d4f3-0x1002d52d, 0x100ae8ec-0x100ae990,
  0x10037130-0x100371de, 0x1007e83b-0x1007e896, .rsrc TEXT,
  Future Pinball.exe 1.9.1.20101231 .rsrc BMP, SHADERS, XML

  Plugins are loaded by changing the working directory to plugins\, walking
  *.dll with FindFirstFileA, calling LoadLibraryA on each and binding
  BAM_PluginStart and BAM_PluginStop. A plugin keeps its settings by writing a
  raw structure to <its own name>.cfg in that working directory, which is why
  the cfg files beside the plugins carry no text.
  ref: BAM.dll 1.5-408 .text:0x100cf400-0x100cf75c,
  BAM_Plugins Common/BAM.h:116-157

  renderingengine.dll is bound in BAM.dll's import directory through
  FindProgram, SetModuleWithResources, LoadFileToMemory and SaveFileFromMemory,
  so the loader resolves it before any BAM code runs. It carries Assimp, zlib,
  libpng and libjpeg, reads the zip packs and writes the per table shadow cache
  under Cache\.
  ref: BAM.dll 1.5-408 import directory, .text:0x10105c18-0x1010697f

  ES-DE declares the emulator as FUTURE-PINBALL-FPLOADER for Windows only,
  finding FPLoader.exe under BAM\, BAM-OpenVR\ or BAM-OpenVR-OC\, and invokes it
  with /Exit /Play /Open in the background. RetroBat reaches the same binary
  under the emulator or core key bam, through the generator it shares with
  Future Pinball. Two distributions are served: bam-setup.exe carries the
  loader, the mod, the renderer, the tools, the plugins, the ball packs and the
  physics presets, while BAM-OpenVR.zip carries the OpenVR plugin and the
  settings files the other package leaves for the first save to create.
