Hey

GGZerG whished an auto scene switcher for BroodWar so I quickly made on and posted it in that thread, that one was pretty unflexible.

Today I felt like doing it right so I improved it a little and now you can choose your hotkeys for 4 different kind of scenes.

I thought about adding the color fix for camtasia but I would need someone using camtasia to test it with me because I don't use it.

EDIT:
Forgot to mention, testing with fabiano showed that you need to run all programs (broadcaster, scene switcher, bw) as admin to make it work.

Wow, I was trying to finish testing with the other one (which worked) but now I guess I'll have to test this version.

Still testing, one thing I noticed:

When you are picking a map on BNet or have a error message up, it counts as Minimized.

Kind of... a scene is a set of views, eg:

Scene 1: shows the webcam and some overlay with sponsors and shit over the Bnet lobby.
Scene 2: shows the game, with the webcam and some fancy HUD overlay.
Scene 3: shows the twitch chat and sponsors overlay, etc.

Other than few things, this is fantastic.

Yeah I was expecting something like that, as the Battle.net menu is just fucking horrible.

I thought about it in the shower and got to a solution which works, so I will post an updated version this evening (ca. 12 hours )

Good, I'll be happy to break it again. I'm not familiar with the language you've wrote this in, so the only thing I can do is beta test the program until it breaks xD

ok I reuploaded it and fixed the minimized detection bug and added hotkeys for camtasia, the first one is to stop camtasia recording and the second one to restart it (to fix the colors) this happens with every scene switch so the colors should always be right.

you are right, it is not detected as minimized while you are ingame, I mixed up 2 if conditions. I will post an updated version tomorrow.

i tested it and its ok but still there is problem with fast switch (game--> desktop and vice versa). If i only switch for few second and then go back then scene isnt corectly set, eg http://pl.twitch.tv/mca64/b/349468281 @1:29:10
i will try to set high priorty to your app and will let know if problem is resolved

hmmm can you tell me whats written in the log window?
Is the wrong state there aswell?
Maybe it's just xsplit not recognizing the hotkeys as the changes happen to fast.
I will add an option to change the update timer, so you could test that for yourself.
I can't reproduce the error on my machine.

EDIT:
updated it so you can change the timer interval now

ok now i know where is the problem. I have older version of Xsplit and it's bugged... When hk is selected then there is some time (about two seconds, sometimes little longer) when hks arent read. Sometimes there isnt any pause. So if i switch fast, your program corectly works but xsplit doeasnt gives a fuck for it!


log from test, looks all ok:

This is working great, by the way.

Incidentally, does it send hotkeys to any program or to only xsplit? I ask because I'd like to use it for other streaming software if possible, but if it only sends the hotkeys to xsplit then I'll need to modify the code.

It simulates the hotkeys so it should work for any program with the same or lower rights (run as admin )

I modified this slightly so that the hotkeys work with OBS:
