Has anyone figured out an escape sequence for BeebEm yet?

I was looking at the keymap file (\UserData\DefaultUser.kmap) and tried changing line 22 from:

-2 -2 0 -2 -2 1

to:

-9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 ***[Pause-Break]***

But all it seems to do is to disable the key in emulation.

N.B.

I use Pause/Break as my exit key.

EDIT:

\UserData\DefaultUser.kmap NOT \UserData\Default.kmap as shown in \UserData\Preferences.cfg, line 91

; Notes:
;The vast majority of images within the archive contain a BASIC loader file, so the following should suffice:

;PAGE=&E00
;CHAIN ""

;However, if the first file in an image is machine code (indicated by a _RUN in the long filename e.g. Islandia_RUN_B.uef) then you will need to ;enter this instead:

;*TAPE
;*RUN

Nice one. I've updated my files.

Going to start the laborious task of recording video clips.

I've managed to source the a boat load of box scans which I'll try and 3Derise one day.

Think I'll use your theme in the meantime - it's got all the classics on there. Thanx again.

Thanks Craig for the module.

[EDIT]

Wow, I did not see page two. My bad Craig and I appologize!!

The Changes you made look great!

[/EDIT]

I modified it to allow for bezels and added an isd for selecting fullscreen.

Here is the ahk: http://pastebin.com/w4458vUG

Here is the ahk: http://pastebin.com/kmjczayx

Here is the isd: http://pastebin.com/brMDE5ad

You will have to create a new directory in ...\HyperLaunch\Modules and call it BeebEM and put these two files in there.

Then Launch HyperHQ.exe and add the Acorn BBC Micro wheel.

Launch HyperLaunchHQ.

Create a new Global Emulator.

Name it BeebEm.

Set the path for the emulator.

Enter 7z|zip|ssd|uef for the Rom Extensions

Pick the BeebEm.ahk for the module.

You should be set. :D

Thanks,

Ron

You should put your name in the module as well!!

And also please note that the module uses a BlockInput command to prevent keyboard/mouse from interfering with loading a game.

On my system HYPERSPIN and xpadder (if using) both need to be run as an administrator when using BlockInput command ...dont know why...just FYI.

The user could always get rid of the BlockInput,On and BlockInput,Off commands if the User doesnt want them in there....but then just dont mess with keyboard or mouse as game is loading!

Let us know how the video clips are coming along when you get a chance. Thanks.

Made a couple more radical changes and waiting to find out how to finish it.

It will enter the correct tape and run commands for .uef files and if the file name has "start)" in it, it will run the correct commands to start.

If it's an .ssd file, it will start the command for you. Hope to figure out how to extract the command from the file name.

Craig,

Does using the ~ work for you in your original module? Mine requires the * key.

Thanks,

Ron

Different keyboard layouts mean different keycodes, you should never use characters such as ~ with Send commands, you need to use the vk codes instead to make it compatible across different keyboard layouts:

http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/KeyList.htm#SpecialKeys

I am not sure how to use VK codes in the module as brolly mentioned above.

If anybody can help me ...thanks ahead of time
