ckp Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Hi, I wanted to launch Bigbox just by pressing the middle guide (or maybe its called home button?) button on my xbox 360. I have autohotkey installed and I have one ahk script always running in the background anyway, so I just added this to my ahk script and now I can launch LB or BB with my xbox 360: vk07sc000:: Run, R:\LaunchBox\BigBox.exe return If you find this useful, cool. If you don't, that's ok too! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try it. I don't have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckp Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) @Porl Hendy, you can put this in an .ahk script file and run it. #InstallKeybdHook KeyHistory ; Display the history info in a window. an ahk window will popup. press your xbox one guide button and then press F5 to refresh the ahk window. here is what it shows for my xbox 360 to use for its guide button: VK SC Type Up/Dn Elapsed Key Window ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 07 000 a d 6.66 not found So that means you use : vk07sc000 See if your xbox one shows anything under VK and SC columns and substitute that in the script i posted.

Porl Hendy Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Thanks, I'll check that as soon as I'm home. Would be amazing if it worked. If not then I'm getting myself a 360 pad lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestate Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 @Jason Carr Maybe we could add some like this to launchbox on configuration options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Agreed @Freestate. We should put in a ticket for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianc125 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I do something similar for the xbox one controllers I have hooked up. The following below launches a bat script that adjusts my screen resolution and launches bigbox when I press the select and start buttons on the xbox one controller at the same time. ;Xbox One Controller Start and Select Buttons joy7:: joy8:: if getkeystate("joy7") if getkeystate("joy8") Run, C:\LaunchBox\Ian\Launch Big Box.bat, C:\LaunchBox\Ian return Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
