I guess that means that my sense of humor translates into "Klingon". :lol:

Situation might have been solved for commercial lobby. However this post is on _freelobby_ section, which means issue and this discussion is still relevant for us gutter punks and e-beggars like me.

Yes, P3rv3rt B3ar, you are right, maybe I shouldn't have posted that, but I was so excited to finally get autorepeat that I must have ignored that I was in the "V2" section.

Why don't you change to V3? Are there other features/plugins you are using in V2 that aren't available in V3 yet?

Sounds like maybe Sean can write the "autorepeat" plugin for you - even though as he has indicated, ("it won't be a 5-minute job.")

I hope you find a solution.

just as a thought, when i was in V2, i had the event of a button triplicated, so for every click i got 3 outputs.
it was for my volume control. wasn't the best solution, but it cut my voluming tapping down by 1/3

:shock: uh, Sean is a master wizard, but imo its not like im retarded on code department either ;)

I dont really have personal need for said autorepeat function (but surely other V2 users might)... question of getting last event though is interesting to say atleast in coding point of view...

Ive spent considerable time on tinkering around API on V2 so im not really keen to loose that investment, also im not willing to buy bundle of unneeded hardware and face the limitations of V3 license agreement.

Since you're one of the "veterans" and you have been so active on the forum, I'm sure if you emailed Wes, he'd be able to do something for you where you wouldn't need any of the "hardware" (V3 license only).

But I'm wondering: what are the "limitiations" of the V3 license agreement? :confused:

You need to buy a copy for each machine you run it on.

you need to setup a keyboard/mouse hook and interceept the down/up events and trigger the req event from a timmer, it can be done from inside a plugn buts its not going to be quick.

its certanly Googleable (if thats a word)

if i needed it i would happily knock it up for you, but i dont, as it stands i dont even have time to fix the bugs in my skin, let alone write a plugin :)

I guess i own u apology, Mr Pitt, for letting my ego run unchecked and interpret that instead of answering OP u were answering to my related, but bit harder, question of "name of last fired event", which i posed after missunderstanding the original post.

Your solution obviously satisfies the original question and it would be pretty much five minute addition to xpert.dll cause i already have mouse and keyboard hooks inplace on it. However current state of the source is such a mess that i wont be implementing the feature either.

Now i guess your aproach combined with thoroughly insane analysis of skin xmls during the load time could yield satisfactory solution to my bit more general question, but im still hoping we discover bit easier and perhaps more elegant way, especially considering that i have no planned features to utilize this information, just my curiosity to understand and exploit V2 better.

i do use auto-repeats on my remote control but i let eventghost do all of the worl for me and i am on V3 as well :)

BTW, i did not read everything, i was simply talking about a simple run_event type solution - nothing flash :)

Thanks lpg,

Yes, I know you need a copy for each machine. What I should have written to P3rv3tt3 is: "How many machines do you have running xLobby?"
