VKeyDown, Scar's New Input API

[LordJashin]

Okay so I was testing the new input API on these games I've played.

 

Game Cases:

 

1. TypeText doesn't do anything, but PressVKey, with the VK_ virtual key codes do work. In fact I erased my entire username with it. But I could not get it to type it again or use CTRL+V to paste something in there.

 

[sCAR]

// Type text failed so I tried this:

 

VKeyDown(VK_CONTROL);

VKeyDown(CharToVKey('V'));

VKeyUp(CharToVKey('V'));

VKeyUp(VK_CONTROL);

[/sCAR]

 

2. TypeText DID work this time, but the VKeys did not.

 

So what is up with some working and others not? I know they can block them I guess but still its weird.

 

 

I've been googling around. Some games use Direct Input?

 

Is there anyway to use SendInput to get around this? Without making your own mouse driver?
