Silent Typing Function [Source]

[Covey]

Well since im about to move on from VB6 i don't see the point on keeping this too myself. (even though its not that great).

Note
This should only be used with RuneScape, if you try to use this for another program / game. It will not work correctly due to the Universal Charater conversion function.
And to those that want to know what the meaning of "Silent" is, well it simply sends the text to the given handle without actually having to have it as your Desktop Window.

Thanks for giving this to me oh and, what are you moving onto?

Perhaps he is going to move on to Delphi

 

[Darthatron]

Perhaps he is going to move on to Delphi

No, he's moving onto .Net 2008.

Thanks for posting Covey, now I can leech it and make a 1337 Auto Typer.

haha, yer thats the engine that i've used in the upcoming auto talker in EliteSwitch v2.72.
I'll also be making a silent clicking function for the auto clicker which i will also post when i finish coding it, it will be basically the same but with the WM_Leftclick etc constants.

I don't really get the point of the silent typing covey I understand that it keeps focus on the runescape applet which is a good thing, but sendkeys works aswell, also sendkeys DOES work on vista.

I guess you're missing the point.
You can type in the RuneScape appet while it is minimized or you have another page over the top of it.

JD he had it already posted it on his first post

[jdsfighter]

I understand that you don't have to have focus, but not many uses for it, silent clicking, now that is a different story

Hmm, yeah...

By the way, cant jagex detect silent clicks? and would they detect the silent typing as well?

 

[Covey]

They can "detect" everything.
Whether or not you fool them as to thinking it's a person typing is a different matter.

 

[Blupig]

Mind showing an example or two on how to use this? Noobs like blupig don't know what a wHandle is for instance. Fucking hWnds and hDCs, I've got no idea what the hell they are :I

 

[jdsfighter]

Every window has a hWnd (Window Handle) and a hDC (Handle of Device Context). Pretty much hWnd can get where an object is located and can provide some info, but I believe hDC is much more in dept and more powerful (not positive)

But the way to use the function is you use an api to get the window handle you want to type to (FindWindow, FindWindowEx, WindowfromPoint, etc)

I don't feel like explaining how to use the api's, but once you get the object's hwnd you call the function

SendText "Hello", hWnd, 100

 

[Covey]

Should tell you guys that, that code is bugged.
If you use it, it will freeze the RuneScape window. You are still able to click on it, but you can't type in the RuneScape window.

You can fix it by removing the last SendMessage line and replacing it with:

call putfocus(whandle)

Then you need to add the PutFocus API to the declarations.

 

[Blupig]

So if I want to use this, what would I put as the wHandle to look for a .jar based client?

This is really only made for RuneScape, so you would need the RuneScape handle, you can get it by using StealRS to switch worlds or by digging up my RuneHwnd code.

 

[The True Gears]

How about you paste the silent version with vb.net

 

[cp]

How about you stop grave digging? O:
