G15, Beta Drivers, Warcraft, Keyclone & You!

Ok, so here's the deal... I use my G15, I currently have the GKeys bound to odd things like ctrl-alt-shift-1 and wierd shit...

This works pretty well MOST of the time, but sometimes it causes conflicts... like if you mash one of those keys at the same time you mash 1-6 it can sometimes page your hotkey bar to something useless... So I've been questing to find a way to send these keys to my clones without using the mad modifiers...

Using the beta drivers, and the lua script I was able to bind the G15 keys to F13-F24 and 6 other odd keys... the downside is WoW doesn't recognize any of them. The upside is Keyclone recognizes all of them... which makes them VERY useful in the world of keymaps...

Zanthor you will be my personal hero if you figure out a way to map the G15 to key such as ©. I know for a fact that wow recognizes such a key but getting it programmed into the G15 (or the X-Keys) is the issue.

You create the © symbol by holding the alt key and typing 0169. Unfortunately both x-keys and the G15 read that as keystrokes instead of ©. But when I did send that to the WoW interface it displayed © where you would expect to see it. So I think it is possible if we can just get the hardware programmed.

I'll see what I can figure out, if you can give me a list of © type char codes it would help.

From what I see the lua interface relies on a scancode from this document (http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/1/161ba512-40e2-4cc9-843a-923143f3456c/translate.pdf).

I got the character codes by going to:
START > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Character Map

You can then click on a unicode character and in the lower right corner it will show you the Alt + four digit number you use to get that character.

Have you had any luck yet?
