I have been able to send every other key but the enter key. I can type in the thing i need to say in chat but when i try sendkeys.send({ENTER}), Nothing hapens. Are there any API calls or .dll s i can use to send the enter key?

I would suggest searching for VB.net sendkeys or possibly referring to the help if it has it...that is, if you haven't already done that.

There's gotta be some information on that out there. Same for the DLLs.

Well sendkeys doesnt work for final fantasy, at least not for me, i also tried the keyboard api and failed too, im thinking of using the windowerhelper.dll only thing its that will tie my app to azaril windower, and if windower goes down, so my app.

If someone found a sollution please share.

Meanwhile ill key searching.

One day research showed me that no send key command or api will work because most games, like this one, use DirectInput so there are some sollutions.

First one its learn directx programing and do it.

Second one, you have to use phyton and some windowsextension plugin, but o broke my head triying this and gave up.

The las one and the one i choosen is to use the windowerhelper.dll free avaible from the guys of the windower, it has one con, and that is if windower goes down your program goes down, but aside that i has a big pro, you can send commands to a non focused window so you can run your bot, minimize it together with the windower and continue working, and thats so awesome.

Hope this helps...

thank you, i have been able to send keys with the .net framework but i will try to use the windowerhelper. I see the non focus thing as a huge plus. I will report back with any problems i get or any solutions i find so maybe they can help others .

*edit* I cant seem to figure out how to send keys to swg specifically. If anyone can help me, i would appreciate it.

if you want to send to an unfocused window your going to have to hook dirctinput. Theres a lot of "how to"s out there in c++ but im yet to find one in VB.NET.

I understand that that directx stuff is what windowerhelper does.

can you point me to a c++ tutorial for use with another game? I can get someone to translate it.
*edit* Also i dotn know if this helps, but AC Tool seems to be able to send return to swg

Well me stubborn, lol i kept searching and searching cuz a wanted something independent of windower and i found my answer here:

Look here!!

I hope this helps you swordrave.

Regards...

thanks that solved it. For anyone who wants to know how to do it
Place the dll in the same folder as your build
