Thanks for the ctrl+u update, and thanks for the 1.6 update. It likely saved you from me being a pain in the rear.

[Asmodian]

Thanks for the feedback, I bet other people also wanted other ctrl+keys but didn't say anything so I just decided to cover as many as possible.

As always I am still accepting key requests.

Hey There, 

The keyboard emulation plugin realy helps extend the limited out of the box G-key functions. 

It works great for most applications. works awesome for ventrillo (versions that the standard vent plugin doesn't) 

But I have trouble with teamspeak, like it doesn't see the key presses. 

I think this may have something to do with running it in admin more or not, but even in admin mode it does not see the virtual key presses from the plugin, what's more when it's in admin mode it does not see other hotkeys from my mouse or keyboard if focus is not on TS. 

I want to be able to have mixed mode of hotkeys, where if i'm at the keyboard my usual PTT works, but if i walk away I can toggle PTT or toggle to VOX using the Gkeys.

wondering why teamspeak seems to behave differently with the virtual inputs. something going on with security i presume. 

I work in higher level languages so I'm no so well versed on the windows API and C++ stuff. 

EDIT:

I found now I got the Keytoggle working with teamspeak 3. 

the trick was getting the g930.exe running as administrator while leaving TS3 running as usual. 

However, I seem to have trouble binding any keyboard (tap) keys to teamspeak functions. 

they work in notepad, but not TS.

I'm wondering if they are pressed and release too quickly for it, though that doesn't make much sense. 

EDIT2:

drats, running G930.exe in admin cause some of the standard plugins to stop functionning, the vent and WMP stopped working for me.

I have always remaped capslock to F22 (scancode 0x6D, i suppose it might actually be F18, looking at http://babbage.cs.qc.edu/courses/cs345/Manuals/ms_scancode.pdf) so that I can use it as a push to talk key in teamspeak without turning on capslock, and without effecting any of my other keys. It would be wounderful if you could include support for that key, (or possibly the whole F13-F24 range) in your plugin

@SeXyGeeK

I have no idea why Teamspeak has so much trouble for some people, I wonder if it has something to do with User Account Control? (I never have had trouble and have UAC off - but that isn't a good option for everyone)

My plugin is very simple as you can see from the code I posted, I can make a key tap version with a 50ms delay to try but I cannot think of anything else.

Edit: here is a test dll, it has a 50ms delay in the key tap (also the requested F13-24 lol).

G930Keyboard.dll

@alur, I knew someone could come up with a key request! thanks.

G930 KeyToggle.dll

Ventrilo doesn't seem to like F13-24, odd.  

[SeXyGeeK]

That delay got the keyboard (non toggle) emulation working for teamspeak 3 for me. 

I'm using them to bind to change capture profiles so that if i walk away from my PC i can change to VOX on. 

and a second key goes back to default PTT. 

better than toggling PTT to solid transmit. 

thanks a whole much. 

the admin thing is still troubling me, but i think that has more to do with TS and/or UAC. 

[Asmodian]

Glad it works! thanks for the feedback.  I'll update the pack with the 50ms delay soon.

Yeah I wish I knew what caused teamspeak's/G930.exe's weird behavior with admin rights.

Great plugins. Should be included by default. Don't know why they didn't.

For G930 PowerManagement.dll how about using the pluggin path

C:\ProgramData\Logitech\G-Series Headset\GkeyAppls\

to put silence.wav?

[caleb_unleashed]

All I have to say is: Asmodian for president!!!

These plugins are amazing... Thank you! 

[Asmodian]

Thanks for the feedback!

Sorry I have been out of town for a while and just got back to work on the plugin.  I am looking into getting the power management plugin to play to the headphones specifically but it isn't working yet.

@alur

I think I have replicated the partial re-asignment of the CapsLock key, it uses F22 for the virtual key code but CapsLock for the scan code, this allows me to use what looks like CapsLock as a ptt key in Ventrilo without actually toggling CapsLock.  Please let me know if it works.

I have removed the F13-24 keys as they didn't seem to do anything anywhere I tested and the key list is long enough.  I can replace them if anyone is interested.

@CarlosGil

I have moved the expected location of the silence.wav to the Logitech plugins folder as requested, though I included the old version as well incase people have trouble with the new location.  I have also included a simple installer script to copy silence.wav there.
