total noob tothis program, great app btw, and im trying to make sort of my own macro for my steering wheel, since m$ doesnt support their own hardware. what i want to do is when i press the wheel button 1 it would send button 1 then button 2, doesnt seem hard but i cant figure it out.
joy button 1::send, joybutton 1, joybutton 2
is this possible?

There is a script in the script show case that can test joy sticks, if I were you I would test your wheel with that script to see if it responds the the testing, if it does respond like a joystick I am sure you can do what you want

yeah i used that to know wich buttons are wich number but how do i send the comands?

[jonny]

There is currently no way to simulate joysticks or anything like them in AutoHotkey, and I have reason to doubt that there ever will be. They're much harder to "hook into" than the mouse or keyboard.

i see so there is no way i can make this work? i thought that it would be easy

[barrosz]

is there a way i can send 2 keystrokes when i push the wheel button? that would be great aswell.

thx for the help but i think i sorted it out i ripped off some parts of code out of this forum and put it together for what i wanted.
what i needed was to push the shift button on wheel and it performed 2 things (shift up+clutch), same goes to shift down. as the game allows to use both keyboard and wheel buttons ingame i assigned 3 keys:
i=shift up;
k=shift down;
x=clutch;
joy8 is my shift up paddle
joy7 is shift down paddle
then i used this code to get some super fast gear changing
plz give suggestions!
