Talk to TinyChat while in a game

[AutoKey]

So I game a lot, but I'm always on TinyChat also. I dual-screen with TinyChat on my left screen while I game. I figured Auto-It could help me, so I don't have to minimize my game just to talk in TinyChat.

What I've tried:

*After typing text while in game, I hit a hotkey and the function TChat is called*

HotKeySet("`", "TChat")

while 1
sleep (1000)
wend

Func TChat()
    Send ("+{home}" & "^c")
    ControlSend ("TChat", "", "NativeWindowClass1", "^v")
    ControlSend ("TChat", "", "NativeWindowClass1", "{ENTER}")
EndFunc

----------------

So, this would work except for the fact that the "enter text" space is not selected. This means my text is being pasted nowhere. See for yourself what I mean by going to tinychat.com/autoit then testing this code.

Does anyone know if there is a way I can send text to tinychat without minimizing my game?

See http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/intro/controls.htm for additional info on targeting GUI items.

And use Au3info(.exe)(installed in your main AutoIt folder) to pickup additional info from the target GUI.

---

Minimize: should not be needed, unless target GUI has some odd GUI code behind it preventing direct communication with it.

I've tried using the controlID, but the edit box is inside of a flash box. So, the A3info tool only gets an ID for the whole box. Unless I'm missing something. . .

[MvGulik]

Flash box: Yep. No point in trying to get to that Edit-box directly with Gui-Ctrl functions.

Indirectly it might still be possible without going for a full general(none GUI-Ctrl use) mouse and key input simulation. (Experiment a little with whatever GUI-control you can find in that TinyChat GUI.)

But ... as I don't have any experience with GUI-Flash items. Or the TinyChat app for that matter, I think that's about it from me.

if you want you can enable or disable the onTop propertie of the window... WinSetOnTop()

everyone have problem that the game exit its resolution and minimise when focusing on another win if the game is set to full screen

Once i added winamp with Parent (winapi or some dll call can't really remember what i used in that moment) to it so that i can play my game while i still can change music on winamp with no resolution changing and minimising the game

so maby something like that work for you 2

hi,

What is the name of your game?

And i know a lot of games that have an powerfull anticheat,

This anticheat is protect games from the macros or key recorders.

The anticheat is always searching the computer , for example when you are at game , if you write autoit or macro or etc, to your internet browser, the anticheat of the game see it and warns "unwanted program runned" , i think you need <removed> or like this programs to hide your browser page (this is usually works) ,Try making an exe because when you start the editor the game may disconnect you or Try to make a for (press alt+m) and look the code of WinSetOnTop() (it will make your form always top on while you are at game or neither.)

Thanks to monoscout999.

You make a post like this again and you will be the one going away. iEvKI3gv9Wrkd41u is correct since you have crossed the line (Although he deserves ripped apart for being stupid enough to quote your post). I'm not going to lock this thread as I don't feel it violates the rules. I am, however, going to edit your post to remove something that is very clearly against the rules. I strongly suggest that in the future you shut the fuck up and defer to the advice of people who have 1869 posts.

Blee, Hitting that report button is so boring ... well, that text thingy as it don't looks much as a button to me.

I've searched around and for anyone curious there is only one solution to this:

In whatever full screen application you want to keep maximized you have to change its video settings to Windowed (Maximized). Then it won't lose focus and minimize if you alt tab out of the app.

No Auto-It required
