[HotKeyNet] Broadcast mouse command

[Slowplay]

I have noticed within the last week when I try to do a `+mouseclick that it is no longer broadcasting to the other windows and it always causes HKN to no longer work. I have to exit HKN to get it restart. For the last month prior to this, I had no issue with `+mouseclick.


This is the error message that displays in HKN:
<ClickMouse LBUTTON> failed: Specified cursor movement is relative to window but window is minimized.
<RestoreMousePos> failed: you must use SaveMousePos in this hotkey before RestoreMousePos.

Would switching for dx12 to dx11 cause this?


here is my script:
//================================================== ==============
// SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR TWO WOW'S ON ONE PC
//
// Instructions: Copy this entire script (all the blue writing
// on gray background including comments). Save it in a file.
// Load it into HotkeyNet.
//
// Toggle the scroll lock key to turn hotkeys off and on. (You

// everything else with HotkeyNet.)
//
// Requires HotkeyNet build 147 or higher.

I run the clients with DX11 Legacy and use the same code as you, works normally when there is no minimized windows.

Are you trying to broadcast the click to a minimized window?


Multiboxing is not done in fullscreen, use windowed mode. But, even using fullscreen, I can't duplicate. Your script works exactly as expected when I load it. I press anything on the numpad, both windows activate whatever is on that key. Do you have something on those keys to activate?

Your mouse buttons don't work because in order for the mouse to broadcast, it has to have someplace to go, which it can't do with the window minimized. The mouse actually physically travels to the other window and clicks which it can't do if it can't 1 - leave the currently active window, which fullscreen is preventing it from doing and 2 - can't find the location in the second window it needs, which minimizing is preventing it from doing.

You state you've made changes to the script and then reverted the changes, have you reloaded the script in HKN?
