Writing a macro to fire all skills one after another

[the_magic_zebra]

Is there a way to program a macro that can essentially cruise through your entire skillbar and cast each skill one after another really quickly?

For example, I press F1 and it acts as if I just pressed 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - + in game, and the delay between each new keystroke would be as minimal as possible to increase the speed at which the skills fire but at the same time as long as it needs in order to make sure that each skill gets cast and nothing gets skipped.

Basically, I want to be able to write a macro that works as if I had a G15 keyboard so I can attempt to cast all my skills in around 2-3 seconds.

Here's the example video that I'm sure you've all seen already:

I want to do that but without having to spend all my money on a fancy keyboard. Anyone have an idea?

i like that^^

I won't be giving you the entire code since I don't support cheats that much, but here a start you can use if you are going to create the macro in C#. Enjoy

class Program
{
public static bool F1Pressed = false;
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Press F1 to start the macro");
ConsoleKeyInfo Key = Console.ReadKey();
if (Key.Key == ConsoleKey.F1)
{
F1Pressed = true;
}
while (F1Pressed)
{
// Make F1/F2/F3 etc.. equal to true so the computer thinks that they
// are being pressed. Exit the program to stop

}
}
}

hey emme can you make a video where you show your " 1hit kill" and your other cheats? not a "how to" just to see that this is possible , thanks

As I stated in a post (or a PM, not sure) my computer got a strong trojan from a user caller XxArcherMasterxX here on e*pvp.
I had no other choise than to reformat my computer. This was about 6 months ago and I posted alot about this and tried to get help to recover files, in the CO2 PrivateServer section if you don't belive me.

I do not have this cheat left on my computer, and I wont bother making it again and honestly I dont think it's possible since they've added alot of checks since then, but maybe..

Instead of doing it Emmas way, which im sure is awesome and everything, use macro maker. its one of those free donate if u like type things, download it, ill give link to my thread about it so it gives u a tutorial kinda how to use it.

[Theworldmayneverknow]

tells you how to use it. instead of looping it tho u when u hit the start macro button it will just run threw skills and then stop

my first post in this froum , not sure whats going on...

Emme's starter code only works when the console in active (As u might have noticed if u code urself Zebra) if u want this to work while ur game is active, you need to write a hook (check SetWindowsHookEx fucntion info and samples of how to do it if u r not a coder then forget hooks because they are annoying and just use Emme's or register a global hot Key...).

so..... in ur C# code (or C++ .... ) u basically write a sequence of codes for each key u want (like this-->)

PostMessage(targetWindowHandle, WM_KEYDOWN, vk, scanCode);
PostMessage(targetWindowHandle, WM_UP, vk, (scanCode));
// lastPressTime = internalTime;
Thread.Sleep(castTime+lagtime);



(i guess u can get the Virtual key or scan code from ur Winspy or from

vk = VkKeyScan(key);
scanCode = (MapVirtualKey(vk, MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC) << 16) & 0x00FF0000;


ofcourse (u have to define the dlls and Windows messages as in:

[DllImport("User32.Dll")]
static extern bool PostMessage(IntPtr hWnd, uint msg, uint wParam, uint lParam);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern byte VkKeyScan(char ch);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern uint MapVirtualKey(uint uCode, uint uMapType);


any way.... this is basically the main commands that u would need to use with Archlord (PostMessage will work fine because the Archlord Window uses Windows Messages not DirectInput or what ever, so u dont need to hook DirectInput.... PostMessage also allows u to send commands to the target window even when the windows isnt active -- like using multiple bots in the same pc minimized while u do other activities on ur pc, pretty useful--)

How do i get the targetWindowHandle for archlord using c#?

I can send keystrokes to notepad sucessfully but not to Archlord

        const int VK_TAB = 0x09; //Tab

        [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
        static extern IntPtr FindWindow(string lpClassName, string lpWindowName);
        
        [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
        static extern IntPtr FindWindowEx(IntPtr hwndParent, IntPtr hwndChildAfter, string lpszClass, string lpszWindow);

        [DllImport("User32.Dll", EntryPoint = "PostMessageA")]
        static extern bool PostMessage(IntPtr hWnd, uint msg, int wParam, int lParam);

        [DllImport("user32.dll")]
        static extern byte VkKeyScan(char ch);



 private void button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            IntPtr archhandle = FindWindow("notepad", null);
            IntPtr handle = FindWindowEx(archhandle , IntPtr.Zero, "edit", null);
            PostMessage(handle , WM_KEYDOWN, VK_TAB, 0);
        }

Ok so i managed to get Archlord Handle and can sent keystrokes to archlord whith it minimized. BUT only if in archlord you press enter to open the chat box. So the keys are registered in the chat box where you type messages but thats it so the 7 key will display but if the text box is shut it does not execute the buff in slot 7.

Anyone have any ideas on how to send keystrokes to minimised AL from C# code?

            const int VK_TAB = 0x09; //Tab

            PostMessage(WindowToFind, WM_KEYDOWN, VkKeyScan('7'), 0); //Send to chat box only
            SendMessage(WindowToFind, WM_KEYDOWN, VkKeyScan('3'), 0); //Nothing
            PostMessage(WindowToFind, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_TAB, 0); //Should Target mob but does nothing
        }
    }
}

ok, i just written a small application to do that, check the attachment (you need .net framework to run it)
(i made it as simple as possible to fire the 10 skills: u can choose the delay between two skills then press FIRE SKILLS as many times as u like)

source code also included, u can use it however u like, even to add more features.....

hope its useful.

Cheers _Villain_ massive help

[superskunk55]

lol i didnt bother reading all the replys,but for a simple and easy macro.Just download macro express and it will auto hook to AL.You can set it up so it will use all the skills then change to next hotbar and use the skills there then go bac to the first hotbar.Or just cycle through one hotbar.Goto www .warez-bb .org and download a cracked version of macro express.

[fragmaster]

One of the first things i created for AL was a macro to fire all my attacks prolly about 2 yrs ago. This is a personnal challange to help with learning c#.

[hokage33]

up! please, can someone help me to use a library to emulate keyboard? because i learn programs in c.
Or can someone make a macro wich work and give me the source code please to leanr how to program it. ^^
