Threading

Dear demons,

 is there a way to use threading and call game functions in a thread?

Code:

DWORD Thread(PVOID)
{
        // call game functions here
}

CreateThread(0, 0, Thread, 0, 0, 0);

That doesn't work. It does crash if you call specified functions in there.

Code:

DWORD Thread(PVOID)
{
        // call game functions here
}

CreateThread(0, 0, Thread, 0, 0, 0);

I think he mean Multi Threading.

If the game is crashing when you call specific game functions you should look at exactly where it is crashing, you may need to initialize your own threads in a different way.

What exactly do you mean "you need to initialize the thread in a different way."?

What I mean is the game itself creates and closes thread in a specific way so that's why creating your own and accessing game functions/data can cause a crash. You need to create a thread the same way the game does.
