Hi Odai, I haven't had good luck with AHK working on ANY steam game. I feel like they block it. Have seen some forum confirmation of that. Seems they used to actually ban for using it (even if not directly on a game).

[Odai]

that would be a stupid reason to ban someone for using it because the game doesn let you change the keyboard config and has a retarded key configuration. o.o

Indeed, it is dumb. But you can use it to automate things you shouldn't (rapid fire scripts being easiest example...but MICE can do that these days!). I learned this when trying to rebind several games that didn't allow it internally.

Steam doesn't block it. But sometimes you can't get the right keyboard hooks into the engine to take care of it (I've set up some stuff for ARK so I don't wear out my E key when trying to harvest stone, for example).

You might want to try playing around with the SendMode, and possibly #InstallKeybdHook and #InstallMouseHook at the top of your script. The game itself may have keyboard/mouse hooks in the engine, or just have ignores set up.

Ty SilverStar, block must have been assumed by the others reporting it when I went searching for my bugs. Sadly, all my scripts already have the kbd/mouse hook entries at the top, and don't work for some key games (Dungeon Defenders...FFS!). Don't recall which key send method I use atm.

I very specifically use AHK for DunDef, to loop E while held.
I'm running some tests. I'll let you know if I can get things to work for basic functions.

~LButton::z
~RButton::x
~MButton::c
XButton1::v
XButton2::g

Using default keybindings for the keyboard, this works just fine.
x/Left click is action 1/shoot
x/Rclick is action 2
c/Middle click is action 3
v/Mouse wheel tilt left is action 4
g/Mouse wheel tilt right is use item

Do make sure you don't have gamepad still enabled, or none of the keyboard stuff will work.

Man that'd have been nice to know way back when I played. I use DVORAK keyboard, and play my FPS/3PS with EDSF, or for me, .OEU. DunDef absolutely refuses to bind some of those keys, so I always had to bind QWERTY keys, then kbd swap in order to chat. I tried AHK to get it to tell DD my un-bindable keys were normal EDSF....never worked.
