Auto Hotkey Scripts

[jacks897]

Hey, would it be possible to make it so that pressing the guide button 2 times quickly would trigger the script?

I figured this one out myself, here it is if it helps anyone else

vk07::

If (A_ThisHotkey == A_PriorHotkey && A_TimeSincePriorHotkey < 400)
{
if !WinExist("ahk_exe yBigBox.exe")
    Run C:\Users\Jack\LaunchBox\Core\BigBox.exe   
else
    WinActivate, ahk_exe BigBox.exe

Run %A_ScriptDir%\nircmd.exe setdefaultsounddevice "32W_LCD_TV" ;

send {esc}

WinClose, ahk_exe retroarch.exe

WinClose, ahk_exe Dolphin.exe

WinClose, ahk_exe pcsx2.exe

WinClose, ahk_exe pcsx2.exe

WinClose, ahk_exe PPSSPP

WinClose, ahk_exe kodi.exe

WinClose, ahk_exe citra-qt.exe

WinClose, ahk_exe Cemu.exe

Send {y}

}

Hey, anyone know of a way to exit PCem when a button is pressed? It doesn't seem to work for me whatever I try.

@Zombeaver may be able to help with that. He is a specialist ?

Assuming you're using PCem for Windows 9x you wouldn't want that anyway as you need to shut it down properly through the start menu, not pull the proverbial plug.

[jacks897]

Thanks for the reply, yeah I realized that after going through scan disk, I hadn't seen that screen for years! Your PCem config/Bat work very well, thank you

Does anyone know how to shrink a PCem hard drive .img file?

You can't. But you shouldn't be using .img hdds anyway. PCem (v17) lets you create variable size / dynamically-expanding vhds. You specify a size that you want to be seen in the VM - 16GB, 32GB, whatever you want - but the actual size that it occupies is only however much space is used by the files on the drive, and it dynamically expands as you add more, up to whatever the maximum size was that your specified on creation.

[jacks897]

Thanks, that sounds like a much better way of using the hdd's. Is there a way to convert an img hard drive to a vhd?

i downloaded a copy of a Windows 98 image on Archive.org that was already configured for pcem, that's why I have an img file
 

[Zombeaver]

I don't believe so, no.

You could always "reverse engineer" one of my game packages that use PCem, just uninstalling the game in the 98 environment and then putting whatever you wanted on. The newer ones are setup with variable vhds. The older ones are imgs, from before those were available.

It's pretty easy to just start from scratch though if you want to go that route. I'd recommend using 98SE + FIC VA-503+ or later mobo as this allows you to shut down the computer and then PCem automatically closes itself.

[jacks897]

Cool, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I already have one of your packages L.A.P.D Future Cop so I will take a look at reverse engineering that, I never could get that game to run on modern systems, great game from my youth.

Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you knew about an app that could possibly map a button on the keyboard or on a controller to a mouse to at a specific point on screen. This would be extremely help in Cemu games like Splatoon where in order to squid jump you need to use the mouse which is a hassle. Have a simple button to click it for you would be a phenomenal idea. Let me know in the comments if you guys have anything that can do this! ❤️

Anyone help with a script? I am trying to have a Joystick button press simulate pressing F1 and F2

this is what I have, but its not working.

Joy4::
If GetKeyState("Joy4")
{
   SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
   Send {F1},{F2}
}
Return

You only need this if needing to use a button combination.  Try this (not tested)

1Joy4::
{
   SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
   Send {F1}{F2}
}
Return

I don't know if the 1st "1" is required to tell it to look for Controller #1.  But in past tests, I know it works.

This will send a keypress to {F1} and then to {F2}.  [vs. sending  {F1}  a_literal_comma  {F2} ]

thanks, for some reason, its still not working. Maybe there's a special way needed for the Dolphin emulator

Not sure exactly what your wanting to do in Dolphin.   Load a save state? Do Frame Advance [fast forward]?...  If it's something like that, you can set those in Dolphin itself.  Go to Options, Hotkey Settings.   Make sure "Device" is set to XInput/Gamepad for it to register the controller.  Then go to the tab you need and click once in the box you want to set, then press the appropriate controller button.

When Mario GP and GP2 launch and the Nintendo screen shows you need to press F1 or F2 to proceed, F1 is for GP1 and F2 is for GP2, my goal was to create an AHK script that would simulate a keyboard press, so I don't have to keep a keyboard in racing cab.

I think the script it correct, but for some reason its not working with Dolphin

It's F1 for both my GP1 and GP2.  I use a 'dedicated' version of Dolphin just for these 2 and set it up like so..

Depending on your games' load time, you may need to adjust the sleep 4 seconds ("4000").  And if your GP2 is indeed F2, and pressing F1 doesn't 'hurt' it (and visa versa for GP1)... copy and paste the last 3 lines to below what's there and change "F1" to F2".  Then play and have loads of fun!

Does anyone know what the code is for the share button on the xbox one controller?
