Autohotkey help

[arkraider34]

Ok, don't know how to use auto hotkey really but I'm trying to set a delayed keystroke command up for demul. I'm wanting it to wait a few seconds after the emulator has opened then press the p key. is this possible and if so can I just add a script to the autohotkey script in the edit emulator section?

That is something I have tried to figure out how to use as well with no luck, more specifically the ahk script tab in the edit emulator window. Hopefully @Jason Carror @SentaiBradcan shed some light on this for us

Yeah I'm trying to get the mouse cursor out of the middle of the screen when launching demul. I don't know anything about autohotkey but I think if I can find the right command for getting it to press the p key after launch I may be on to a fix. but then again since I don't jlknow what I'm doing I may not! lol

Alex created a tool just for this issue:

Thanks for the reply and the link. one question though. so am I wrong by thinking a delayed key press can be set up in the autohotkey script tab in edit emulator?  

[SentaiBrad]

If it can, that is out of my wheel house. I do know there are how-to's and instructions on the AHK website for setting up stuff up.

Ok thanks, been searching for things of that nature but I'm thinking at the moment it's out of my wheel house as well. lol

i just use the following in my demul emulator's ahk tab and it takes care of the mouse pointer perfectly:

Run, R:\LaunchBox\Emulators\Demul\nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide



$Esc::



{

        Run, R:\LaunchBox\Emulators\Demul\nomousy\nomousy.exe

        Process, Close, demul.exe

}

Yeah once again no luck, I'm sure I'm doing it wrong though
