DMC HDC Keyboard + Mouse (AutoHotkey v2)

This guide will show you how to play the game using Keyboard and Mouse with the help of AutoHotkey v2.

For Standalone/Ubisoft/SourceNext 2006 PC Port: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3289595888

Requirements

- AutoHotkey v2[github.com]

I would also advice to change your keyboard bindings first on the launcher settings. You can use mine for reference.

Instructions

1. Install AutoHotkey v2 and AutoHotkey Dash will launch afterwards.
   
2. Click New Script > name it something like "DMC HDC KBM" > click Edit and select Notepad or any text editor that you're comfortable with.
   
3. Copy and paste this script:

   LShift::Space   ;[Left Shift] Lock-on/RB
   T::RShift       ;[T] Taunt/Back
   Esc::M          ;[Esc] Pause/Start
   Pause::Suspend  ;[Pause] Suspend Script
   #HotIf

4. Save the script in the Notepad.
   
   The logic of this script is that if AutoHotkey v2 with the script and one of the DMC games are running in the background, these keybinds will be in effect as well so if you want to suspend the script to use your keyboard normally, press Pause on your Keyboard or right-click AutoHotkey from the hidden icons in the taskbar then Suspend. You can also click Exit to shutdown the script after suspending. This is also a good solution if you're worried that the script will affect other programs.
   

5. Head to the location of the script (Default location: %SystemDrive%\Users\%Username%\Documents\AutoHotkey) and run the script.
   
6. Run the game to test.

You can still use the original keybinds while you're in the game.

@UltraDzoni is the AutoHotkey already running in the taskbar's hidden icons after using the script?

stills sucks to play i wish controllers were more cheap

[b\]

I managed to get it working, thank you!

[ProjectXsent]

@b\ You can try opening a Notepad, paste the code there and save the file as ".ahk"

@b\ Just updated my AutoHotkey v2 to the latest version and there's no problems on my end when running the script. Did you made a typo/copy paste error on the script?

[b\]

when I name the thing and edit it I get a thing saying "the file name or syntax was incorrect"

@dayson055 Maybe try an older version, like 2.6 beta 2

[dayson055]

yeah

Did you enable Actor in DDMK?
