Autohotkey

[massop]

i am having trouble with autohotkey. and it is driving me mad.

i want to be able to exit emu's within gameex by pressing the L3 and R3 buttons on my playstation pad (R3 = btn10 L3=btn11 ), so in autohotkey i am trying to map them to Alt and F4, sounds easy?

Not for me, here are the scripts i have tried

2Joy10::

Send {Alt}

2Joy11::

Send {F4}

this does not let me press them at the same time it does one or the other so i tried this...

2Joy10::

Send {Alt down}

KeyWait Joy2

Send {Alt up}

return

2Joy11::

Send {F4}

and this still does not work, it does activate Alt and F4 key but not simultaniosley, I have tried a lot of different variations of the 2 settings but no joy, i did get it to work when i put a semicolon on the Send {Alt up} line but then i can do anything else as the keys are presed down forever.

has anyone got this to work?

please help.

thanks

Alt is a !

So you would say

2Joy11::Send !{F4}

But you should be able to use an advanced config to do this for you in GameEx.

Check out "C:\Program Files\GameEx\CONFIG\EMULATORS\Project 64 V2.ini" for an example advanced config. Make a copy and call it what you want, then in your Emulator Setup have the advanced config point to that file.

thanks for your help man, i did try the "!" before but i did not try it on the same line as {F4}, but i think the advanced config option is probabley better.

i will try this when i get home

again, thanks

The new search feature should make finding the option easier. Select Start->Programs->GameEx->Setup Wizard->Search->Type "advanced config" minus the quotes and you can set the advanced config for each emu.

O.k

2Joy11::Send !{F4}

worked fine but only outside of gamex which i find very strange, but i left that and did the advanced config for Project 64 V2.ini and added this into the script after activating it in gameex ( i left out the notes )

MapGamePadExit=true

Left=

Down=

Right=

Up=

Button1=

Button2=

Button3=

Button4=

Button5=

Button6=

Button7=

Button8=

Button9=

Button10=True

Button11=True

so as i understand it if i press buttons 10 and 11 while i am playing pj64 it should exit back to gameex. but it does not work at all, nothing happens, I have definatley activated this within my pj64 "advanced configuration"

I know i have probably done a n00b error somewhere.

thanks

Yes, it works how you expect, holding down buttons 10 and 11 should exit back to GameEx. And if you have it activated in your PJ64 settings it should be working AFAIK. Try a search for "joystick" (minus quotes) in the Setup Wizard and have a look at the options there.
