Coding a marco

[zero_tolerance]

Hello in this tutorial we are going to make a marco.
A marco is a script you run with autohotkey.
You can make things with it like clicking 100 times any key or things like autoshooters for games.

I dont use marcos for hotkeys or progams so i will learn you make a marco/autoshooter for a game.

Only games I hack are battlefield 2 and battlefield 2142 but i think it will work for most games.

Ok lets start.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


What do you need.

Autohotkey


Step 1
Ok first download and install autohotkey on your pc.


Step 2
Open notepad and make a new file called tutorial.ahk

Step 3
Most time we start with command lines to explain what the script does.
The commands wil not be load or run so dont paste scripts there.
We always start the command lines with ;;

;;  This is my first project i made
;;  Its a autoshooter for a game
;;  Have fun with the autoshooter

Step 4
Ok now we write the next code:

#NoEnv 
#InstallKeybdHook 
#InstallMouseHook 

SetTimer, KeepRunning 
return 

KeepRunning:

Step 5
Under it we paste when the script need to go on.
So if we paste szProcessName = bf2.exe the marco wil start working when bf2.exe is running.

Paste the next code in your script:

 ; Get the process name of the active window (i.e. Notepad.exe) 
  WinGet, szProcessName, ProcessName, A 
  if szProcessName = BF2.exe 
  { 
    Suspend, off 
  } 
  else 
  { 
    Suspend, on 
  } 
return 

SendMode Input

Step 6
Now we write the next code to let the marco run when you start it or if it first need to be activated.

_auto := false

Now the autoshooter wil only run when you active it.
When you write true then the autoshooter wil auto go on when bf2,exe is running.


Step 7
Ok now we write what key or mouse click need to be repeated.
I beliefe for all games the left mouse is the shoot button so you can keep the code on this way if the key is the same for the game you make the autoshooter for.

~LButton::autofire()

Step 8
Ok now we write the next code to chose what hotkeys we want to turn the autoshooter on or off.

+Home::_auto := ! _auto 
+End::ExitApp

If we press Shift + Home then the autoshooter goes on or off and if we press Shift + End then the marco will close.

Here is a list of keys you can use for hotkeys:

Windows key  =  #
Alt  =  !
Ctrl  =  ^ 
Shift  =  +
 
and more here: http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/KeyList.htm

Step 9
Ok now we put this code to let the marco shoot click fast on the left mouse button.

autofire() 
{ 
global _auto 
if _auto 
{ 
Loop 
{ 
if GetKeyState("LButton", "P") 
{ 
SendInput {LButton DownTemp} 
Sleep 85 
mouseXY(0, 6) 
SendInput {LButton Up} 
Sleep 45 
} 
else 
break 
} ;; loop 
} ;; if 
} ;; autofire() 

mouseXY(x,y) 
{ 
DllCall("mouse_event",uint,1,int,x,int,y,uint,0,int,0) 
}

Step 10
When your script is finish then end with the next code:

;;;;;; 
;;; End script 
;;;;;;

Putting a message box in your script

Step 1
To put a message box in your marco like made by: regitbull or credits to: regitbull then paste this in your code:

MsgBox, Text here

But now the title of the message bar will be the name of the marco so for this tutorial you will see as title tutorial.ahk
To change the title change the messagebox code to this:

MsgBox , 0, Title text here, text here

This will make the title of the message box title text here and the message text text here the button wil be OK
To change the button change , 0, to something else.
Here is a list of buttons:

0  =  OK
1  =  OK  /  Cancel
2  =  Close  /  Redo  /  Ingore
3  =  Yes  /  No  /  Cancel
4  =  Yes  /  No
5  =  Redo  /  Cancel

Putting a windows box with a text field.

Step 1
If you want that someone needs to enter his name before using your autoshooter then put the next code in your script:

InputBox ,name, Please enter your name
MsgBox, Thanks for using my autoshooter  "%name%", Have fun with it

This is only to tune up your autoshooter so it dont send a name to you or something.
You can also make a password code ofcourse so people need to enter a pass before they can run your autoshooter.



Ok i hoped i helpt you guys with making your own autoshooter and if you have questions then just ask them in this tread or in this forum.


Good luck,
