Using Vice without Steam

What is this?

This is a modified version of VICE that is built to not depend on Steam. This modification works on Windows and Linux.

Pre-Built binaries

Compiling on Windows

  • First you need to create a new Empty VisualC++ Console Project that will compile this code into an executable.
  • Add public/IceKey.cpp into your project
  • Setup the include paths in your settings to include public/ (for the header file)
  • Copy the code below into main.cpp, and compile.

Compiling on Linux

  • Copy the makefile into a file called Makefile
  • edit the Makefile to reflect the path to your SDK_ROOT/public/ directory
  • make

main.cpp

//========= Copyright © 1996-2005, Valve Corporation, All rights reserved. ============//
//
// Purpose: Standalone utility to encrypt files with ice encryption, that doesn't
//			 depend on Steam.
//
// Author: Valve Software and Scott Loyd ([email protected]).
//			Tested and proofread by Me2.
// Depends on: Just needs public/IceKey.cpp to be compiled/linked with it
// $NoKeywords: $

(Optional) Perl Script to make life easier

I use Env. Variables in all my scripts because of multiple developers, so you can either hardcode the variables, or set the env. variables on your system (see msdn docs. for that). Also, to take this even further, on my system I created a new MSVC project, then changed it to a utility project (leaving me with just build events); I then called the perl script as my post-build and MSVC now does everything for me in my build process. 

#!/usr/bin/perl
# easy script that compiles our scripts folder and then moves them to our mod directory!

use warnings;
use strict;

use File::Copy;


our $outExt = ".ctx";

our $baseOutput = $ENV{'MOD_CONTENT'};
die("Could not find MOD_CONTENT envirornment variable.\n") if !$baseOutput;
our $outputDir = $baseOutput."\\scripts";

our $inputDir = $ENV{'CODE_SCRIPTS'};
die("Could not find CODE_SCRIPTS envirornment variable.\n") if !$inputDir;

our $iceKey = $ENV{'ICE_KEY'};
die("Could not find ICE_KEY envirornment variable.\n") if !$iceKey;


our $devToolPath = $ENV{'CODE_DEVTOOLS'};
die("Could not find CODE_DEVTOOLS envirornment variable.\n") if !$devToolPath;

printf(" ** Encrypting scripts and copying them into your mod ** \n");

my $command = "$devToolPath\\ice -x $outExt -k $iceKey ";

opendir DH, $inputDir or die "Could not open code-scripts directory\n";

	while ($_ = readdir(DH))
	{
		# we don't want to process . or .. directory holders.
		next if $_ eq ".";
		next if $_ eq "..";
		next if -d $_;
		next if $_ !~ m/.txt$/;
		
		my $inFile = $inputDir."\\".$_;
		system($command.$inFile);
		
		#printf "Command: ".$command.$inFile."\n";
		
		#Get a filename/path without the extension, add the extension to the end.
		my $outFile = $outputDir."\\".$_;
		$outFile =~ s/(.*).txt$/$1.ctx/;
		$inFile =~ s/(.*).txt$/$1.ctx/;
		
		#printf "InFile: ".$inFile."\n";
		#printf "OutFile: ".$outFile."\n";
		move($inFile,$outFile);
