That is because your application gets the focus instead of the game. So, your program sends the keys to itself. To solve this, use a timer and put the code in it. But, surround the code in an if statement that checks whether a particular key is being pressed.

Here's a rough idea:

[highlight=c++]#include "stdafx.h"

#define IsKeyDown(Key) GetAsyncKeyState(Key) & 0x8000 //Used to check if a key is down.

void YourTimer(Parameters...)
{
if (IsKeyDown(VK_SPACE))
{
::Sleep(6000);
keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x36, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_SPACE, 0, 0, 0);

::Sleep(1000);

// stop pressing "Alt-Tab"

keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
keybd_event(VK_SPACE, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
}

}[/highlight]

Hope, this gives you the idea.

hmm kk thanks, just tryed that and it dose not want to work. i thought i needed to hook it? as its had directx?, it works in minecraft...

edit:

Edit2:

it works in chat but, not when ingame for example if i type "iiiiiiiiiiiiiii" into chat to check if it work it will so it would look like"iiiiiiiii iii"
but it will not make me jump?

Maybe you need to set the focus to the game itself, which is set the the chat box at the moment ?

Check which key loses the focus to chat and then send that key to the game before trying to send keys that make the jump happen.

[tester181]

i mean in bfbc2, in the chat box it works. but when not in the chat box it dose not

[KissU]

Sorry for my dumbish but wich game is bfbc2,and it have some protection like xtrap,gameguard? Maybe you need a bypass.
~EDIT
I've searched and its Battlefield Bad Company 2 but if it have protection I dont know,cuz I play wolfteam and guameguard block auto-clickers,blah blah blah...

Try SendMessage, PostMessage and SendInput, one of those might work

iv found out how to do it , thanks for the help guys.. just cleaning it up now.. another question

how do i point the sleep Delay to numericupandown1?

this dose not work
Sleep(NumericUpDown1->Value);

or
Sleep(NumericUpDown1.Value);


edit:
vb.net is
Sleep(NumericUpDown1.Value)

Could you maybe tell us what NumericUpDown1 is?

+ Marked Solved.

[tester181]

ahh thanks after a few tweeks will post for peeps to use

edit:


with that i get a new error

error C2653: 'NumericUpDown1' : is not a class or namespace name

i was reading up and some one said it could be the order of the "#include"?

if so this is what it is:

#pragma once
#include <cstdlib>
#include "stdafx.h"
//#include <isostream>
#include <windows.h>
//#include <User32.lib> 
#pragma comment(lib,"User32.lib")
//#include <F:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Lib\User32.lib>

bool switch1;
 

 
#define IsKeyDown(Key) GetAsyncKeyState(Key) & 0x8000 //Used to check if a key is down.

[Hassan]

Yeah right.

This works fine:

[highlight=c++]numericUpDown1->Value+=1;[/highlight]

[tester181]

im trying to get sleep to read the Milliseconds from a Value box on the form so that wont work :S

Edit
NumericUpDown1 is

That is because Value is of type decimal and since CLI is strict about type conversion, you need to convert it to Integer so Sleep function can take it.

[highlight=c++]System::Threading::Thread::Sleep(Convert::ToInt32( numericUpDown1->Value));[/highlight]

[tester181]

ahh Sweet thanks All fixed now
