 |
|
So I've tried everything. SendMessage, SendInput, PostMessage. None of them work.
Im just trying to hit the F3 key in a DirectX gamed. I can get the window handle successfully. But when i send F3 nothing happens. I've checked Spy+++ to make sure that I'm sending the same thing that's sent when i press a key manually, and it's the exact same thing.
Any help?

| There's a bit of info on handling applications that won't accept hotkeys in Autoit3 forums. Too bad they banned discussion of video games.

perhaps it only handles the key events when the game is the foreground window with focus and ignores all input if it's not
if it is because the key api is blocked then go the hardware route (look up teensy )

I'd go with Arduino over Teensy personally. A lot more libraries available for it for sending and receiving data, and lots and lots of source code and examples available at the 'Arduino Playground'. I've used one once, I wrote a simple bot in the Arduino environment, and I wrote a program on the PC that would read and enemy coordinates and upload the values to the Arduino and the bot would act accordingly by grounding keyboard keys. I've used one for my PS3 and PS2 to make programmable controllers as well. Great piece of hardware.
You can get them cheap too, about $33 pre-assembled on average and they come in a ton of varities, nano, mega etc...

You could probably just make a lower level hook to send inputs to the game.

I FIGURED IT OUT 
To send keys to a Direct X game, you need to use Direct X scan codes
Here is a neat function to do just that, and it uses SendInput().
| Code: | void PressKey(int key){
INPUT inp[2];
memset(inp,0,sizeof(INPUT));
inp[0].type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
inp[0].ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_SCANCODE;
inp[1] = inp[0];
inp[1].ki.dwFlags |= KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;
inp[0].ki.wScan = inp[1].ki.wScan = key;
SendInput(2, inp, sizeof(INPUT));
} |
