MTH with a gamepad?? yes/no?

[staring_elf]

i use MTH to play up to 12 sng tables at party. could someone tell me if there is any application or code i can use in conjunction with MTH to enable me to use a gamepad. ie. instead of my check/fold/raise/all in buttons being on my keyboard i can program them into a joypad instead? this would be so much more comfortable. any info greatly appreciated.

yes, there is a program auto hot key or something. It lets you define that joy stick button 1 click = click in active window on coordinates x and y = which is one of the buttons.

There is a second way as well that requires auto hot key. Since MTH has shortkey buttons for bet folding and bla bla, ou can define that clicking button 1 on the gamepad will send the press of button b and mth will in turn interpret this as bet.

Also, note that you probably don't even need AHK if you're running MTH. I imagine the gamepad software that came with your device lets you map "Button1" to A, "Button2" to S, and so forth. Then all you have to do is have MTH use A for Fold, S for Call, and so on.

thanks for the info Sam, but actually i don't have a gamepad yet, i was just inquiring to see if i could use one with MTH first before i bought one. if its as easy as you say and i don't even need any AHK then that's gonna save me a load of hassle. do you have any recomendations/links for any good gamepads that would be suitable per chance? forgive my ignorance on the subject but my technical knowledge is increasing at a snail's pace [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

this is a little gem of a forum btw. between here and the sng forum i've really been impressed by the high quality of the posts. seems to be a lot of knowledgeable people about this place.

You got my PM, right? Table Navigator is probably the way you want to go. It's AHK, but you'll find it pretty easy to work. If you can't figure it out, give a holler in this thread.

I used to use hot keys w/ my game pad, but the script is slow. I couldn't possibly play as many tables with it. I found mth keyboard control better in many ways. You can define keys. it is very nice.
