Ehh, bottom line, I want to recreate DxWnd using C#.

I have no clue how it works, how it could work, or any plans whatsoever, SO, im just asking for maybe the concept of how it works, or even better a snipper and an explanation of the snippet.

doubt you could make this in C# unless you recreate a few Hooking functions in C#

You could make the general wrapper/injector (see GP+ for an example in C# on how to write an injector), but you wouldn't be able to write the DLL without a lot of trouble.

If you still want it in only C#, though, Google around: some guy who made poker bots posted on his blog about injecting managed dlls into native apps.

Edit:

If you don't mind writing the injectee in C++, check out Wiccaan's post in GP+ about his DirectX wrapper. That's virtually what DxWnd does.

AFAIK, DXWnd hooks CreateWindow and all that and simple changes it to window mode...

That's not correct. It doesn't matter how you call CreateWindow. DirectX will just change it to fullscreen depending on what you tell directx. What you need to hook is CreateDevice (for D3D) or SetDisplayMode (for DirectDraw (only used in old games)).
