Is there any way for me to use this on my stream with OBS when I play on windowed fullscreen mode? I can capture the keyboard box, and it functions properly, however when I alt tab to SC2 it no longer registers which keys I am pressing. I only have 1 monitor.

Maybe try turning on a 'lock' option on the program so it doesn't minimize when you alt tab? either that or just go into windowed mode and make it as big as possible.

let me know how it works!

Stumbled across this potential alternative today: http://www.grumpybread.com/download/gop-gop-goop-goop/

I may check it out tonight on stream. Perhaps it's easier to use than this other one, and better yet isn't asking $30 lol

I mentioned in an earlier post in the thread that I had tested with gop.... you can even use game capture on the program as it uses DirectX, but I would get serious frame drops. Maybe someone can test it and see if they have better luck with it.

Ah, I'm sorry I missed your post. I will play around with it and see if I can find a way to get it working well.

It is made well, but I find it distracting on streams.

Tried the lock thing, It keeps it in front of sc2 so that won't work. Windowed mode for me goes to a funny ratio, so I have bars from the desktop on either side, so I don't think I will do that. If anyone figures out how to make this work, please message me!

Thanks

Btw I found out you can include mouse click buttons on the virtual keyboard when you go to make your own...but they don't highlight when you click. I sent an email to their team so hopefully we can find out a way to make the mice highlight on click if people are interested in doing that on stream.

Tried a new thing today!



Quick set up and hacked together solution for streaming with a virtual arcade stick on PC.

Using JoyToKey: http://www.electracode.com/4/joy2key/...
and customized HOT Virtual Keyboard Layout: http://hot-virtual-keyboard.com/

JoyToKey maps Button 0 on the fight stick to the key 'a' so it highlights on the virtual keyboard set up. The green button is mapped to 'a'.

Up, down, left, and right are mapped to num 8, num 2, num 4, and num 6 respectively. For some reason it detects these as the default up down etc controls. I placed all the buttons on top of each other (the activated buttons float to the top for display) and made my own custom buttons in photoshop.

I would love to see this become standard or at least widely used. I love a little keyboard sound with the stream audio and this would really complete the experience.

Well, so far EZKey seems to play really well with obs. http://www.twitch.tv/drawntolife/b/394804494

Can use Window Capture/Sub-Region etc. flawlessly. It also keeps up well, and didn't cause me any lag, neither on my end, or the stream. Good stuff!

Do you have your SC2 in Game capture or software capture?

I'm pretty sure that I use monitor capture actually.

Has anyone figured out already how to play full windowed mode with virtual keyboard minimized and still registering keys?

I am the one who is developing EZKey, so if you have any questions or trouble with it, feel free to ask your question in this thread!

When I was experimenting with minimizing, my results were that Windows doesn't even render minimized windows. This usually makes sense, of course, because how are you supposed to look at it. However, it should work just fine as long as you don't minimize it but instead just put the other windows such as StarCraft above it.

The problem is, the Virtual Keyboard will still remain over the starcraft screen while running
