Re: Sending Keys to MAME

Hi HeadKaze, if you are still keeping an eye on this thread...

I am trying to do exactly what you are mentioning without any success.
I compiled mame 0.142 with the FORCE_DIRECTINPUT 1 option. I have a hook that will identify any pressed keys. When I press the key 6 I want the soft to send '5'.
The key is sent to any apps but Mame !!!

I have tried to use :
keybd_event
and
SendInput

Can you share a code example with us... Or do you have any tips to make it run ?

I am able to make my 'multicoin' using autohotkey (which does not need to have a kind of keylogger runing around) but as a tutorial purpose I would like to be able to code it with regular C/C++, but without any success yet.


Thanks
