MTW II & AHK. Why it does not work?

**dienicy** · March 10, 2013, 09:21 AM

Hi,
My script :

Code:

#InstallKeybdHook
}::
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
{
    WinGet, active_id, ID, A        
    WinGet, id, list, Adobe,, Program Manager
        Loop, %id%
    {
    
            this_id := id%A_Index%
            ControlSend, AVL_AVView15, {Down}, ahk_id %this_id%

        }

}
return

It press Cursor_down in one inactive Acrobat reader window while } is pressed unless Medieval II is in front.
I tried and it works fine with every other program/game I have on my drive.
Does anyone know why or how to work around it?
THX

It could be the way CA has it programmed.

DVD? Steam? Other?

DVD

SEGA added SecuROM as its copy protection along with its own algorithms before printing the dvds. This I believe has been brought up before and has been stonewalled by CA's own developers.

I post over at .Com every so often and on issues like this expect your thread to all off the page there. Their moderators there are like here, volunteers, and if they can't get a straight answer from CA what to post, they won't.

It is not about copy protection. It's anti cheat thing like PunkBuster or alike - wathever they used in this game.
Script:

Code:

#InstallKeybdHook
SendMode Input
RAlt & ]::
SetKeyDelay, 0, 10, Play
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
{
    WinGet, active_id, ID, A        
    WinGet, id, list, Adobe,, Program Manager
        Loop, %id%
    {
    
            this_id := id%A_Index%
            ControlSend, AVL_AVView15, {Down}, ahk_id %this_id%

        }

}
return

If you want to do AHK-anything while in MTW II (Kingdoms, I play TATW) then the only way(probably) is to use SendMode Input and key combination with ALT.
