Games compiled with MSVC RTTI enabled contain and metadata placed immediately before their virtual method tables in memory.

By scanning the section for strings matching mangled class names (e.g. or ), you can trace cross-references backward to locate every vftable in the game binary dynamically!

Who else uses automated RTTI dumpers in their SDK build pipelines?

I built an IDA Python plugin that parses MSVC RTTI descriptors on binary load. It automatically names over 80% of all virtual tables and classes in under 10 seconds!

The combination of RTTI parsing and NetVar recursive table traversal makes game engine updates trivial since you never have to hardcode fragile offsets.

// Always check your pointers!
