AutoHotkey Problem.

[Kayley]

Strange problem that has recently popped up.

I'm using a modified script (scorns? not sure) and lately it's been.. well, 'lagging'. I mean, it will stop broadcasting my keyclicks to the other windows and then 'catch up' - every key press I made (that wasn't sent) is spammed as fast as possible.

I'm wondering if it's because the script (after my edits) is too big now?
I used to play x5 WoW on one HDD (now two) with no problems like this.

8800gtx
2GB RAM
E6600 etc etc.

I've not had a chance to load up an older version of the script (which I will do later on) - but yeah, Anybody experienced this or have any idea what might be causing it? Does keyclone do this at times? (only ask because that will be my alternative)

(if this is in the wrong section, sorry)

Does your framerate drop when this occurs?

It sounds to me like your CPU is maxing out.

Easiest way to make sure keys always get passed is to raise the priority of the AHK script, In task manager, select the AutoHotKey process and set the priority at "realtime".

If it still occurs then I don't know what it is :-(

[Kayley]

Sadly, no. (or at least not that I know of)
I will try increasing the priority though.

Also, I just noticed you have 2GB RAM, which might have something to do with it.

Try running just 3 clients for a bit and see if the issue re-occurs.

If it doesn't then I think you can safely say you need to buy some more RAM.

These things I should've tried before asking, not sure why I didn't.

I shall try it out when I get home, thanks for the ideas.

Yeah, last RAM stick was faulty, had to send it back.. still waiting :roll:

nooooo. I had 4gb, one stick was faulty. Was left with 2gb :P

Anyway, 3 clients would still mess around (albeit less)
Reloaded an older script and no problems yet. b i z z a r e
