Autoit Error

[qqplayer]

Trying to create a simple script for C64 with retroarch.
All my attempts with autoit failed.

Even a basic script is sending me an error:

Code: [Select]

#NoEnv

Sleep, 1000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
Send {F11}
Return

Code: [Select]

error: syntax error
Sleep,

Code: [Select]

---------------------------
Aut2Exe Error
---------------------------
Line 5  (File "C:\Users\User\Downloads\AutoIt v3 Script.au3"):

Send {F11}
Send ^ ERROR

Error:
---------------------------
Aceptar   
---------------------------

Any advice?

P.D. Windows 8.1 x64 , and Autoit v3.3.14.5 , tried Admin privileges run , x86 mode...

you mix/mistake autoit with autohotkey.
they're two different languages, with different syntax

sleep command autoit
sleep command autohotkey

Trying to figure out how to create a script for retroarch with your autoit tutorial

http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=365.0

Only get "retroarch"

Code: [Select]

;waits for retroarch
winwait("Retroarch")
WinWaitActive("Retroarch")
Is this right?

@qqplayer
I'm not using Retroarch. So I can't help 100%.

After starting retroarch.exe and aut3info.exe of autoit:
retroarch starts a window without any visible text (so cell of visible text of au3info is empty).


so you need to add a delay (sleep command).
the F11 key disable the mouse cursor, right?

so this should do it:

Code: [Select]

WinWait("RetroArch","")
WinWaitActive("RetroArch","")
sleep(1000)
send("{F11}")

Thanks, I´ll try I think I need another key.
What I want is to enable "fast forward" for maybe 20 seconds holding an specific key , and then release after that.
Could be "f" for example.

How can I make this with autoit?

so this should do it:

Code: [Select]

WinWait("RetroArch","")
WinWaitActive("RetroArch","")
sleep(1000)
send("{F11}")

@qqplayer
please do not quote complete posts.

this should do it:

Code: [Select]

#include <Timers.au3>

WinWait("RetroArch","")
WinWaitActive("RetroArch","")

$starttime = _Timer_Init()
While _Timer_Diff($starttime) < 20000; 20 sec => 20 sec * 1000 ms => 20000 ms
    Send("f")
WEnd
