64-bit Support!

EDIT: Client update released!

Hello all! I have a quick and simple update you can test right now! This will eventually be rolled out in a future client update and fix a lot of 64-bit games out there, helping with their detection, and most importantly, Xfire In-Game!

Simply download this file:
Download xfire_toucan64_46139.xll

Then copy/move this file into the main Xfire installation directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Xfire

Now restart Xfire, allowing Xfire to update and redetect your games. That's it!

Here are some games recently tested:
Dead Frontier
Dead Frontier 2
Ryse: Son of Rome
Star Citizen
PEAK
Zero Hour
EverQuest
DOOM (2016)
Pirates of the Caribbean Online
Guild Wars 2
Total War: Rome Remastered
Chess Titans
Purble Place
VRChat
ChilloutVR
BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER 3: I OPENED A PORTAL TO HELL IN THE FAVELA TRYING TO REVIVE MIT AIA I NEED TO CLOSE IT

For more games to benefit from this update in the future, many entries will have to be redone to properly enable Xfire In-Game. Please be patient as there are many, many games that will have to be investigated to see if XIG is possible with the update, and if so, it would require editing the entry in a way that would only work with the update.

Right now Xfire only supports DirectDraw, DirectX 7-11, OpenGL, though it seems to struggle sometimes with OpenGL 4+ with XIG but not screenshots and videos. We want to support DirectX 12 and Vulkan, we always get asked that and of course we want to. The issue is Xfire is closed source and it would appear the source code was lost by the last owners and so we need help in reversing, reimplementing toucan, and other ideas like bringing back Voice, file sharing, web game tracking/XIG, etc.

Good job. Will vulkan api get support too? I play old games on a new hardware, and I use vulcan instead of directX
