Title: [solved] how to get auto hot key to press "alt+enter" for me? + ps2 videos
Post by: shateredsoul on March 18, 2010, 06:58:18 pm
I'm trying to setup an emulator in Maximus Arcade.. it launches, but I have to press alt+enter for it to go into fullscreen.  Is there a way to automate this? or that I can use command line for?

I have ps2 working in my setup, but I have to press alt+enter to get fullscreen. Is there a way to make autohotkey do it for me? can someone help me by writing a script like that for me? I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong.

I tried doing this..

{enter}!

which should be alt+enter, but it didn't work.. kept saying keys are not found in current program (or something like that)

Which PS2 emulator are you running?  How good is it?

pcsx2 a non official release (meaning someone other than the pcsx2 team released it)..

it runs bloody roar 4, king of the fighters 2006, and several other games really well! I tried to upload a video, but it turned out to be too long for youtube and I didn't feel like editing and uploading again.

I never had an emulator not toggle full screen on it self if you set it up well. PCSX2 even does that. I happen to use the Mac version, so I can't tell for others.

Is this pcsx2 the best one?  What others are out there that work?  What are the system requirements to run these?  Thanks.

Here are a few ps2 games running on my pc, more coming soon. If you see maximus on there.. that means I was running an older version of pcsx2 for those videos, the videos that show my desktop were made using the latest version.  Sometimes the videos stutter because I was download 100gbs from my external and had a bunch of stuff running in the background.

I'll post it later on tomorrow, I don't have access to my pc

Here it is

I used this code, 2000 milliseconds is a 2 second delay, it gives pcsx2 enough time to launch before pressing alt+enter.  I'm using pcsx r1888 with the latest plugins


SendMode, Input

; Sleep (How long to wait in milliseconds between moves.)
SleepAmount = 2000

Sleep, %sleepamount%

Send !{enter}
