Hello everyone ,

I dont use the normal SEND function of the autoit because it is blocked.(the reason why is blocked doesnt matter)
The problem is that the function works perfect only for sending specific keys.
I can send every character.
I canot send function keys "F1 - F12".
Right,left,up,down keys doesnt work also.
And combination keystrokes like ALT+F4, shift+` and so goes on.
Please, can anyone modify this code so to works for the above situations?
Or if you having any example with a working function that will be great.
Thanks in advance...

Did you try ControlSend? Maybe this is unpatched.

Is it for Archlord? I've tested my UDF with Archlord and it works:

I tried any kind of method.
Converted the functions to ascii and i sended with the same parameters that i took from spy ++. Until now no success.
For some strange reason the keys that only works perfect are the keys that use $WM_KEYDOWN and $WM_KEYUP.
I changed the code and i added $WM_SYSKEYDOWN and $WM_SYSKEYUP, for some keys that use that parameters.
i made also a code that sends only one key every time with the parameters that i take from spy++.
It works ok for every character key but when i use it for functions keys like F10, or to send combination keys like ctrl+` , the operation fail.

The problem is not that i can not send keys at all. The problem is that i canot send specific keys like the one below.
Have you tried to send F10? Or alt+f4 or ctrl+` ????
If your code works for those keys you save me....
I am waiting for your feedback...

PHP Code:

#include <PostMessage.au3>

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:RwAppClass]")
;$hWnd = "Archlord"

;===> F10
_PostMessage_Send($hWnd, "F10")

;===> Ctrl + F4
_PostMessage_Send($hWnd, "{LCTRL DOWN}")
Sleep(50)
_PostMessage_Send($hWnd, "F4")
_PostMessage_Send($hWnd, "{LCTRL UP}") 


I can't test the Ctrl + F4 combination but it works for another game which is protected by XTrap.

Thanks in advance
