Ever Fluked an AWESOME shot that ...
Permalink Closed


... you wonder, how the fook did I do that and can't seem to remember the coordinate, well I may have the solution for you. Here's something neopetsfd said that clarifies my point.

About that, ive made a program that records mouse clicks. If you find a nice shot and are unable to remember the coordinates for some reason, just view my programs log if you will, and a record of all the last clicks coordinates can be viewed.

HOWEVER, the downside is that "EVERY" left mouse click is recorded globally, ie: when you click anywhere on the screen, that coordinate is saved.

I've been trying to remedy this, so that clicks on the game screen (the offline minigolf window "Flash") are saved only but to no success, or even that clicks on the Game Window are captioned to help identify them easier over other 'useless' clicks globally.

As a result it can be difficult to find the shot you want if you have recorded 3 or 4 new clicks since the one you want trying to open my prog. Therefore it is not a 100% ideal solution but does help.

*HOW TO USE*

Open my program either before searching for shots or after the offline minigolf is opened, doesn't really matter. While my program is running it will record every single left mouse click coordinate.

WHEN you *fluke* a shot, try to do the following for best results:
1. You can move the mouse, but DONT click anything.
2. Use the 'TAB' button, to cycle through the currently running programs and release once my program is selected. This will bring it up.
3. Again use the 'TAB' button to cycle through the interface untill you come to the textbox where the coordinates are stored.
4. Use the 'Page Down' or go to the bottom of the textbox by using the down arrow (this may be time consuming if lots of coords are stored).
5. The last recorded left mouse clicked (that AWESOME shot) will/should be there at the very bottom.

Cheers, hopefully it works for everyone and saves some time. I'm playing on updating it soon to remove 'useless' clicks from being recorded. Ksbunker.

well on the program are a few buttons and things like that, when you use the TAB button it highlights certain parts of the prog.

im sure you figure it out when you see it.
