Windows 7 Macro Help

[Valor_X]

Hello All
First off, let me say this is an awesome project that caught my interest and love the work put in to it and thanks in advance


I have assembled and have a working DIY usb adapter with the new version of GIMX 1.02 on my PS3 slim

I have configured keyboard keys and it works perfectly, I just cannot get any macro to even work/register

I have created a macro1.txt file, however the 'macros directory' folder did not appear under ROAMING>EMUCLIENT



So I made my own folder... but still no avail
I also copied the macro1.txt file inside the config folder next to the config1.xml file, in the emuclient folder, and the 'macros directory' folder I made.. still nothing
I also named the .xml file config1.xml



I have set the WASD keys for the d-pad
I am trying to create a macro when I press X on the keyboard to perform the string below ('x' is not bound to any key input by the way)
I have tried MACRO KEY x , MACRO x , MACRO KEYDOWN x and none of them work
Even if I change the delay to 100 nothing happens

MACRO KEYDOWN x
KEYDOWN s
KEYDOWN d
DELAY 10
KEYUP d
DELAY 10
KEYDOWN d
KEYDOWN f

Can someone please advise on what I am doing wrong?
Where is the correct place to place the macro txt file?
Is something wrong with the macro itself?

The name of the folder has to be "macros" with no quotes.

Thanks for the quick reply, I'll try it after work

Also, I have another question..

Is the macro file supposed to be named "macros1" or "macro1"
I am confused at the macro tutorial



Also, I want my macro to be initiated by pressing "x" on the keyboard
"x" is not appointed to any controller button

to start the macro, should it be "MACRO x" or "MACRO KEYDOWN x"

I fixed the typo in the wiki.

"MACRO x" and "MACRO KEYDOWN x" are equivalent because GIMX only did support keyboard macros in the early releases. "MACRO x" is the old way to write "MACRO KEYDOWN x".

Thank you

I am able to get everything working now

It's pretty fun and interesting writing these macros, Took me about an hour to get a 'perfect' macro with the lowest latency possible

lots of trial and error for sure

Thanks for all the help
