Sendkeys to game?

[Borgi]

I play Lord of the Rings Online and tried to use sendkeys to send some basic automation commands.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to get the keys I'm sending

AppActivate "Lord of the Rings: The Mines of Moria"
sendKeys (" ")

does nothing.

When I activate the chat line in the game, it actually does work, so the sendkeys is not lost.

I tried using sendmessage from user32, but when I send to the window I find, it changes the title bar of the window, but it doesn't seem to send a keystroke to the game.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Here is something that can probably solve your issue:

Read the thread through and the final post is your answer.

here is the link for the plugin you need:
