Scripting / Re: Running a .ahk script

« on: December 29, 2018, 06:33:02 AM »

So I pointed my Executable at the AHK program. Then I added some extra code since my original script closed after it ran which actually causes attract mode to wake back up. It is all working now but here is the final script just in case someone is interested.

Run, DELTARUNE.exe, C:\Program Files (x86)\SURVEY_PROGRAM, max
sleep, 3000
Send {F4}
KeyWait, Joy12, D
WinClose, ahk_exe DELTARUNE.exe

gotcha, so I need to only run the AHK file.. Thank you this helps I will tinker with that and see if that fixes it. By replacing the deltarune executable with the AHK executable.

Scripting / Running a .ahk script

« on: December 25, 2018, 04:30:12 PM »

I am sure I am doing this wrong but here is what is going on.

I am opening up deltarune and trying to get the script to hit F4 to full screen it. Now the script works just fine if I run it straight from the desktop. However it definitly is giving me issues through Attractmode. As it opens the game but will not seem to Hit F4

Executable C:\Program Files (x86)\SURVEY_PROGRAM\DELTARUNE.exe
Working Directory C:\Program Files (x86)\SURVEY_PROGRAM
Rom paths  C:\Users\MyriadArcade\Desktop\Attract Mode\attract-v2.4.1-win64\emulators\DeltaRune
Rom extensions .ahk

And here is the script file

Run, DELTARUNE.exe, C:\Program Files (x86)\SURVEY_PROGRAM, max
Sleep, 3000
Controlsend,,{F4}, ahk_exe DeltaRune.exe

Which again runs just fine from the desktop but not with attractmode. I am certain I am calling the AHK file wrong but I am still learning the ropes here. Any advise would be welcome.

See that is the problem, running it the standard way IE like a windows exe file the game doesn't come up. Instead I get just the flash player with nothing loaded. I find it quite strange. I guess my only solution at this point is to just rip the SWF file some somewhere and run it as a flash game period. Thank you again for your help.

I have joy2key and attractmode start up when I first boot my machine (using a Bat file), then joy2key switches profiles depending on the game I have running.

I appreciate the info, but reading through it I do believe it is referring to running an actual flash file (SWF). I am running a EXE file that just so happened to be compiled using flash. I will tinker with this but I don't believe its going to quite work as intended by the instructions given.

General / Flash Executable Files

« on: November 01, 2018, 06:07:19 AM »

I have been working on my arcade setup and understand how to get EXE files running by using .lnk files as the rom call. However I have been trying to get Abobo's Big Adventure running. It runs fine on its own but through attract mode it simply opens the flash player and does nothing. Any advice on this or is this just not possible to run properly in attract mode?
