Wow, I didn't realise such a project was being made. May I ask who is developing it?
Anyway, I have made quite a number of Jazz Jackrabbit 2 apps, and these are usually some of the things that repeatedly pops up time and again: - Memory-related
- AttachToJazz2Process (equivalent of FindWindow + GetWindowThreadProcessID + OpenProcess)
- CloseJazz2Process (equivalent of CloseHandle)
- DetectVersion
- WriteDWORDToMemory (equivalent of WriteProcessMemory, automatically handling buffer and size; for lazy people)
- ReadDWORDFromMemory (probably not needed)
- Advanced: AllocateCodeCave (Searching for code caves in memory)
- Advanced: HookJazz2Winsock (Hooking of winsock DLL from within memory rather than packet editor/analyzers)
- Advanced: CloseWinsockHook
- Maybe, but not recommended: pre-defined addresses in memory
- File format hacking
- Zlib functions
- Perhaps a pre-defined structure of headers is various file formats
- Registry-related
- ReadPlayerKey, WritePlayerKey (wrappers for Reg* APIs that automatically point to Subkey)
- Networking
- A set of functions that connects to list server and handles data
I had more in mind when I started writing, but forgot half on them on the way  . I might fix up this reply when the ideas start coming back. Btw, I had C++ in mind when I wrote these. I'm not sure if you are making a library for Visual Basic, which more people are fluent in.
