Hi!
I try to make my first fly camera cheat and of course stuck with one problem.

So here is sample part of current code, which work as it should. "Base" was founded on this forum, but i play a bit with it and get to understand some basics:
Code:

[ENABLE]
{$lua}
function checkKeys(timer)
  if (isKeyPressed(VK_W)) then  -- move Forward
    writeFloat("[[theHunterCotW_F.exe+01E62750]+E0]+150", 1)
  elseif (isKeyPressed(VK_S)) then  -- move Back
    writeFloat("[[theHunterCotW_F.exe+01E62750]+E0]+150", -1)
  else  -- if not used than don't move
    writeFloat("[[theHunterCotW_F.exe+01E62750]+E0]+150", 0)
  end
end

t=createTimer(nil)
timer_setInterval(t, 50)
timer_onTimer(t, checkKeys)
timer_setEnabled(t, true)

[DISABLE]

timer_setEnabled(t, false)


This values control player speed and while "W" or "S" key pressed - player move forward or back with "1" speed. Perfect. But what if i want send value "5" when i use "Shift+W" or any other combined keys? How should it be coded in such case?

I mean i can't figure out what should i type here in such case in "isKeyPressed"? Because isKeyPressed(VK_LSHIFT, VK_W) or isKeyPressed(VK_SHIFT, VK_W) doesn't work.

Probably i should use somehow createHotkey(FastForward, VK_SHIFT, VK_W) ? But i can't figure it out or find any readable for newbie like me (i mean all cheat tables with LUA free camera, that i can find, is pretty complex) any example of existing script where something same was already done.

I check main.lua, virtual key codes and read a lot of threads here from google, but anyway no have idea what should i do :/

This is the first thing I thought of off the top of my head:
Code:
if isKeyPressed(VK_W) and isKeyPressed(VK_SHIFT) then
  print('yes')
end

Wow.. I was scared that possible solution, probably, will required bigger amount of code and logic, but... Such simple and works perfect! Smile
Thank you a lot!

Code:
function areKeysPressed(...)
  for i, v in ipairs({...}) do
    if isKeyPressed(v) == false then
      return false
    end
  end
  return true
end
if areKeysPressed(VK_SHIFT, VK_W) then
  print("yes")
end
