WindowkillSeedFinderGUI

This is a GUI for my Windowkill Seed Finder, which is a tool to find seeds for Windowkill, written in Go, Cuda, and C#.

On my GTX 1660, it can check every possible seed (roughly 4 billion) in 4 minutes (average time per seed is 54ns, and on my Ryzen 7 5800x it takes 30 minutes (average time per seed is 413ns).

Features

• Find seeds for challenge mode in Windowkill on the GPU or CPU (CPU is only there for those without a CUDA capable GPU)
• Parameters:
  • Number of threads (CPU only)
  • Upgrades
  • Character
  • Starting time
  • Ability and level of ability

Installation

1. Download the latest release from the releases page
2. Install dotnet 8.0 or higher from here
3. Run WKSeedFinderGUI.exe

Planned Features

Features that might be added later if I feel like it

• Save/load parameters to/from a file
• Keeping track of the best seed found
• Have the option to search for every seed matching the parameters (up to a point), not just the first one
• More options for the seed finder (Such as bosses, although this would require a lot of extra work. Currently, only implemented in Go, and you can compile the project yourself if you want to search for bosses too)
• Rewrite the seed finder in OpenCL for better compatibility with different GPUs

Building

After cloning the repository, run dotnet build (or dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained false -p:PublishSingleFile=true for a single .exe file) in the root directory to build the project. The executable will be in WindowkillSeedFinderGUI/bin/Debug/net8.0-windows/WindowkillSeedFinderGUI.exe (or net8.0-windows/win-x64/publish/WindowkillSeedFinderGUI.exe).

As for the seed finder itself, install GCC to path, Go, the Cuda toolkit, and run nvcc -shared -o main.dll main.cu followed by go build in the WindowkillSeedFinder directory. The executable and .dll file will be in the same directory.
