Per Game AHKs

[somail]

Hi,

In Launchbox, Is there a way to set a per game AHK? For example a PC game that I would like to run demulshooter in the background.  I know I can set scripts for an emulator but I have not seen an option to set an AHK script if I am pointing launchbox directly to an exe,bat, etc. of a game. 

Thanks for the help.

To load DemulShooter with a game, you can add an Additional App to the game (edit the game in LaunchBox), and point directly to demulshooter.exe.  Set it to run Before Main Application.

Got it. One more beginner question: Is Launchbox able to use AHK files or can it only use AHK scripts in the emulator section? i.e. do I still need to install AHK if I plan to have Launchbox use an AHK in place of a rom or exe?

No need to install AHK.  You can use the AutoHotkey.exe located in ../LaunchBox/ThirdParty/AutoHotkey/AutoHotkey.exe and then the "full/path/name of your script.ahk" as the Command Line Parameter.

"D:\LaunchBox\ThirdParty\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe" "D:\Utils\My Awesome Scripts\TheBestOneEver.ahk"

Be sure to use quotes. Especially if your path has spaces in it.
