[TuT] Hotkeys - VB 08

Alright, you need to ATLEAST know the basics for this.
At the top, after Public Class Form# Add in this code:

Code:

Public Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "User32" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer

or this one if that doesn't work for you:

Code:

Public Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "User64" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer

Now in a timer, add this:

Code:

Dim Hotkey1 As Boolean
        Hotkey1 = GetAsyncKeyState(Keys.ReplaceThisWithHotKey)
        If Hotkey1 = True Then
            Timer1.Enabled = True
        End If

To explain the timer, so you can edit this code for your own hotkey..
Hotkey1 = String, so you can rename to whatever you want.
ReplaceThisWithHotKey = Replacing the word with the hotkey you want, VB 08 has auto complete for hotkeys.
Timer1.Enabled = True = The action it does if you press the hotkey.

Edit: Also, double click on your form and write in Timer#.Enabled = True - then replace # with whatever number timer you have.

does this work in combat arms??? cause i need one to work for my bunny hopper

you do it the complicated way... you can do it in less lines and easier.

I'll show you when I install vb08 just to make sure I get it right, (im 100% certain for vb6.0 but only about 80% for 08 :P)

This is saying if you press this make this happen, not saying press this key for me.

this is the worst way to do hotkeys

not really because you can use this even if you not have your program selected

it works in-game for me :P

i don't know if it works in combat arms

wdf? that's what hotkeys are supposed to do.. send commands, but you get to choose the commands o.O If you put down 1 comamnd it's not sending it 10 times - You could put that into form_load if you want, it's faster but makes you pressing buttons lag

How does this hotkey work?
Press it and it program goes, Release it and it stops?

Or press it and it goes even when u let go of the hotkey?
Because i found a tut liek this and when i did it that way it only worked when i was pressing the hotkeys.

press and when you let go it'll still stay on.
if you guys know more vb you'll know how to make a code that turns itoff.

Im confused =="
I write all that in but how do i get the hotkey to actually start me program?
Is there any additional code i need to write in to make it start?
