hey bro, please dont quit, the most pleasure content of yours is how to make bots, so you should focus on that. Your audience will increase easily, focus on various types of games.
Hi, you don't upload videos in a while, hope you're fine, your videos are pretty helpful, please if you're reading this, we need more content like yours, make more videos when you can.
I came here to say almost the same. I hope you're doing fine. Your videos have been helping me a lot. You're amazing!!! Thanks a lot for all the videos you've made.
just notice he didn't upload anything in one year. I really hope hes okay, his channel is a hidden gem. He can explain everything so simple yet so full of useful information.
the way you teach and show how you go about solving a problem and give us tools at hand and show us how you figure out stuff is exceptional. i thank you for all the work you've put in your videos so far.
I found your channel just recently and gotta say your little series on writing a bot got me back into coding and I'm having a lot of fun! :) So thank you kind sir
Don’t know if you stopped making videos but, just found your channel and learnt so much useful stuff that I’ve always wanted to figure out! Thanks for the great info and I hope to see new videos from you in the future.
I was trying to do this for a browser game that I was automating. In the middle of trying this I found a solution specific to browsers. You can use playwright or selenium to automate a browser. This includes sending mouse and keyboard inputs on specific elements and/or coordinates of canvases. These libraries include a screenshot function which you can pair up with opencv and do image recognition. This can all work in the background. The browser doesn't have to be maximized.
Personally I use both post/send message for my bot but I also have find out that Autoit is also really powerful and can do things that send and post message cannot. In the end I settled on using a mix of both of them for my bot by using the pyAutoit module. This results in my bot being blazing fast and consistent for multiple windows even when unfocused.
Would you mind uploading it to Github or anywhere else to see how you did it? Would be interesting to see. I just ran my bots in VMs. Running them natively would be much better. xd
I would love some more information on how you accomplish this. I, as well as probably many others who came to this video, are still searching for a way to send input to inactive windows. Please get back to me if you care to elaborate. Discord: Chai#5765
I think that writeprocessmemory might just be the solution. In theory there's a 1byte or 4byte value that determines if the window is active or not. This value is then used to allow/disallow inputs, if the value is flipped to a 1 then it will start reading keyboard inputs. I worked a lot with assembly and many applications prevent custom inputs, but they do still allow modified Xinput inputs, and that can also be an alternative.
Bro your content is the best python content I have ever had the pleasure to watch. I have learned so much from you in like 4 videos. I know you haven't uploaded in a while but I hope you're doing well. All the best my man, cheers!
Hi, I'm grateful for your video. It explained well the limitation usage using python that I'm also have the same issue as yours. I can't get around to make my python program to run through a minimized window. But anyway, thanks a lot for your explanation. I'm hoping to get new updates either from this channel or this comment section for how to using python and doing automated on a minimized apps.
Man I’m glad you made this video I would have been going down the rabbit hole trying to do this for hours lol. I instead spent the entire day trying to get modded minecraft to run in a VM and finally got it to run at around 10 FPS which is good enough for my code to do it’s thing
Hey I know you probably won't see this but I am trying to write a bot for Minecraft as well and for some reason when I try to input the keys it doesn't release them. Did you encounter this issue and do you know how to fix it?
@@OlofMemester dang I replied but for some reason it didn't go through. To sum up what I said in my previous reply that I didn't acutally post There's multiple ways to simulate key presses and I think I used pydirectinput for my script. You should be able to pip install pydirect input, import it, and put pydirectinput.press('esc') I can't check that I used pydriectinput or that that works so if for some reason it gives the same bug you could try pydirectinput.keydown('esc') pydirectinput.keyup('esc') th-cam.com/video/LFDGgFRqVIs/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=LearnCodeByGaming video on pydirectinput
Where were you when I was struggling to do all of these? XD I guess i wasn't looking hard enough so that was my fault. Love the video though and learn a lot of things!
We didn not see you since long time, I have a great video suggestion for you, make a video about how to connect a custom trained YoloV8 model to any game window. The current version is V8 which has so many options, for Detection ,Tracking, Segmentation and so on, now it is even easier deploying implementing for custom projects. Reply
I would look into creating virtual keyboard and mouses. I know that there used to be one app on windows that was able to do just that but apparently it isn't working as good since some windows updates.. It was created so people would be able to connect multiple mouses to a pc so they could all work from the same machine; this would let you do most of what you want I believe
You need coroutine to do that rather than blocking each window, or create a json file where it contains the lists of PIDs used so you can run the main.py multiple times, thus you dont need to have that forloop
Thank you for the tutorials! This is exactly what I looking for. However, I struggle with one more problem. Could you help me if you don’t mind? I want to assign hotkeys to start/pause/reload/exit macro in Python. The macro is infinite loop, like AutoHokey code below. F1:: Loop { DoSomething() } Return F2::Pause F3::Reload F4::ExitApp
Sir, do you have some content about identify a image in window and move to it using WASD? i saw you videos about opencv, but i cant find nothing about WASD moving to detected object.
do you now how to set workwindow by mouse position ? i need to send keys like 1, 2, 3, to a game.exe in minimized window, this window must be captured by a mouse positon, by PID and set PID to workwindow.
I found in auto hot key that this works quite well to send to a background window but if you're trying to do multiple copies of the same window then it doesn't work so well. ControlSend, , {input here}, *windowTitle
Is it possible to send multiple inputs of same to single application...like example I want to mimic ctrl+c on multiple text box in a desktop application at once or having tab key work on two or more text boxes at once....is there any approach or idea on this
Scripting program called uopilot as well as autoit can do it easily. Maybe Python is limited in that sense, or libraries needs to be created to make it work with unfocused windows
This video reminded me of the pain in win32. I even made a SO post about windows messages and it was down voted by an ex MS employee because I was asking something that is not possible. Idk if Linux has a better window message architecture for user inputs. The answer is probably just use a better OS. But it may be possible to rewrite windows message architecture, but probably not worth it.
im nob in Python and this stuff, can you create me 4 keyboard keys to send to game? for example i want to press "E then Z then Shift then Space" i want to create script like when i press F8 it sends that inputs when im playing a game.
Would it be possible to make a series about Man In The Middle bots MITM in Python of course, seeing how to read the signals. hooking, sockets all that good stuff . Also I made a first bot using your series for another video game and IT WORKS WONDERS !
I love this but I wanted to know something. So how easy is it for Anti-cheats to detect that your mouse clicks or mouse movement comes from a program or hardware? Like if I send the mouse movement command via program would that be easy for them to detect? Would it be harder to detect if its hardware?
They are just gonna see what inputs you did/do, not the source that is sending the inputs. So if you make the movement consistent , they will detect it fast. No way a human is following exact same pixels/pathing every time, or move crazy fast etc etc. The trick is getting it to randomise and act "human like".
Is there a way to find a new opened window? For example, I want my bot to open 2 windows at a time for 30 minutes then open another 2, and windows will have the name (window1,window2,window3,etc)
man, you are just awesome. I am having trouble with pyautogui when importing from a different .py file and it just didn't work. also, I wanted to know if I could resize a window(resize x,y) and position it on my screen with code?
