<div class="inner" id="msg_838997">This is just a quick and dirty utility for making FilterKeys settings, which allows values that are not possible to set using the standard Windows UI.<br><br>It's main use would be, as the title says, to
set faster repeat than is normally possible. The easiest way to use it for that purpose is to click 'Keyboard', which sets all the values to the same as you've got set in the normal Keyboard settings dialog in Control Panel, and then
change repeat delay and rate to your liking.<br><br>If you want to make settings permanent, check the box 'Save to registry'.<br><br>No rebooting, or logging off and then on again, is required.<br><br><img

class="smiley"><br><br>It's unlikely to be a bug in FilterKeys either - even with non-standard values, since people have been using them for quite a while by editing the registry directly.<br><br>So my guess is that Starcraft 2 doesn't
like FilterKeys being active (or that it's something unrelated, and just coincidence). Does double-tapping shift get that locking mode as well perhaps? I found a
<a href="http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/8087789302" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">post</a> where someone used double-tap shift to clear a stuck shift. If that's a game feature, perhaps you can change the time it uses for
detecting the double-tap in a config file to be less than your repeat delay.</div>

<div class="post">
<div class="inner" id="msg_848102">Hello! First of all i want to say: great work with the software Soarer!<br><br>I found this thread trough a helpful individual at overclock.net that told me about it. I have been looking for ways to tamper
with my repeat delay and repeat rate lately. I tried the software "Keyboard King" earlier but the program i have in mind, SC2, does not work too well with Keyboard king. After changing repeat delay and repeat rate trough this software on
average 1 out of 3 or 4 clicks would be a failed one in SC2, but there would never be any failed ones outside of SC2. The failed clicks would not have the changed repeat delay and rate values but would have the windows control panel
values. Such inconsistency obviously just makes things worse so i simply couldnt use Keyboard King for SC2. It should be mentioned that changing repeat delay and rate for SC2 is allowed, but obviously not too many people are using values
outside of the windows control panel so its somewhat of an unexplored territory as of right now. The developers of Keyboard King has not updated the software for 9 years now but it seems to be the main software for its purpose even today.
I have not found any other similar software.<br><br>After Keyboard king didnt work out i tried using windows filterkeys, but i found that SC2 did not like this either, every now and then while in a game the shift function would just go
crazy. I just tried it again right now and it seems SC2 goes shift crazy randomly even if you dont press the shift key at all. Other strange selection bugs seems to occur as well.<br><br>I just tried your program Soarer and unfortunately
i got the exact same behaviour in SC2 as i got from my experiences with windows FilterKeys (well, your program is FilterKeys simplified, so i guess i shouldnt be surprised, but i thought somehow maybe it would work and it was always worth
a try). I read HOKis comment and i tried all kinds of settings in the windows control panel but i still get the same behaviour in SC2.<br><br>So if you (or anyone else reading this) can figure out a way to use filterkeys or any software
providing a lower repeat delay than windows control panels lowest 250 ms combined with a decently high repeat rate in SC2, without SC2 being all buggy, then let me know! <img src="https://cdn.geekhack.org/Smileys/solosmileys/tongue.gif"
alt=":p" title="tongue" class="smiley"> But im sure you didnt have SC2 in mind when you made your software so i understand if you dont want to spend time looking into the matter. After all, it could just be SC2 that is the issue and
that right now there is no way to get a repeat delay and rate changing software to work correctly with it.</div>

<div class="inner" id="msg_848268">Hmm, I'm seeing a pattern here with SC2 and crazy shift behaviours! Since I don't play it, I can't really help directly in solving these problems, but if I have any ideas on what might help I'll post them.
I'm not sure what setting HOKi changed, or if it's a part of Windows. I'm pretty familiar with the different ways that games in general might read keys, but I just can't think what it is that SC2 might be doing that makes it incompatible
with FilterKeys (which, after, all, is an OS feature so presumably less 'quirky' than 3rd-party utilities).</div>

character (in the picture you can see why). When I'm inside SC2 and in the menus (not playing a game), this works fine (Alt+W works). However, when I'm playing a game this does not work (Alt+W does not work).<br><br>

a completely new UI, features and system, HotS-like. And for my surprise, <strong>now I can use Alt+W inside the game</strong>. I think that the previous anti-macro system (or fair system, or equal condition sytem, or whatever you wanna
call it <img src="https://cdn.geekhack.org/Smileys/solosmileys/tongue.gif" alt=":P" title="Tongue" class="smiley">) was even more hardcore than it currently is!</span>

<div class="post">
<div class="inner" id="msg_848867">Thanks for responding guys!<br><br>Based on what i know i doubt that SC2 has any anti repeat delay/rate changing or anti macro feature though. I know of certain casual players that use macros without any
problems while playing SC2, a terran friend of mine has a macro for making a ton of marines by just one button click and he has used this for quite some time now. Macros are strictly forbidden in SC2 (stated very clearly by Blizzard) so a
non casual SC2 player would never consider using a macro for anything in SC2, and that obv includes myself. And thus, we are obv never seeing a serious player showing up at a lan event with some macro functions to make use of, because
that player would be disqualified in an instance. But based on what i know it seems macros work perfectly fine in SC2, and for casuals it seems to be more commonly used than one would think. Also i know that players have been able to play
SC2 with a way higher repeat rate than the windows control panel max when using a keyboard with options for increased repeat rates, such as the Zowie Celeritas. But Keyboad King and FilterKeys (not macro software, just repeat delay/rate
tweaking) as stated dont work well at all with SC2, while macro softwares seemingly work just fine. So i dont think the reason as for why Keyboard King and FilterKeys dont work too well with SC2 has to do with some purposely made anti
repeat delay/rate tweaking or anti macro feature by Blizzard, but that it instead has do to with some programming conflict between the program and the software.<br><br>Obviously an increased repeat rate or a lowered repeat delay is not a
macro by any means, but since it can give an edge it is reasonable to question whether it should be allowed or not. I came across a post in a blizzard forum asking about tweaking repeat rate/delay values beyond the windows control panel
(<a href="http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/2794772806" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/2794772806</a>) but he got no response by Blizzard. Blizzard has stated very clearly that macros are
not allowed, but on the matter of tweaking repeat delay/rate it seems they have been silent. But not too many people have been asking about it anyways.<br><br>In any case, i am still interested in getting FilterKeys or some other repeat
delay/rate tweaking software to work for SC2 so if anyone here figures anything out let me know. What i would change is basically just lowering the repeat delay from 250 ms to about 120 ms (it cant be too low because that would make it so
that i would double click control groups and other things by mistake). That would make it so that i would save significant time troughout a game when combining all the small moments where i save time. The repeat rate max in the control
panel can stay the same as i dont find it as vital. But yea, lowering repeat delay also has its downsides, thats why one can select different levels of it in the control panel anyways.</div>

<div class="inner" id="msg_848869">Ohhhh. Yeah, anit-macro makes a lot of sense. Although they could probably have done it better by implementing their own repeat from scratch!<br><br>F u r u y á... Your description of how it was (re.
Alt-W), sounds like it was using Windows' key events in the menus, and DirectInput in the game... DirectInput doesn't have any key repeat functionality, so they'd have to write their own. With key events they still could do it, by
tracking key state and ignoring repeated keys. Repeating keys from FilterKeys don't come through as event sequences of down-up-down-up-..., they are down-down-...-up (just like the normal repeat settings). Macros would be more likely to
be down-up-down-up, and indeed have to be if they are done on a USB keyboard.<br><br>Of course, if a macro is timed to be within the limits set, it wouldn't be detected anyway....</div>

<div class="inner" id="msg_1187731">I dunno if it's a bug in the program, or a quirk in Windows. There's source code and a few links in the post which might help, but maybe the first thing to try is resetting the values. Either run
FilterKeys Setter, click Default, Save to registry, Apply, or use the Accessibility Options Control Panel Applet to set something valid. Then see if the odd behaviour still happens when you edit the registry manually.</div>

<div class="inner" id="msg_1312447">Hi! Just found your program and tested it. <br>That's excellent solution for changing undocumented typematic values. Especially Delay/Rate. But there's some trouble using these feature. When filterKeys
flag is ON - It would not filter if some application slows and key will simply stuck, so I have to Press it again to Unpress. So In normal mode - after some waiting when key is stuck - it will unpress it. In "flag" on - it will
not...<br><br>By the way. I have a simple multimedia keyboard with feature to change typematic (7 modes. 4th - seems original mode.) 7th fastest - is like rate=10ms/delay=150ms. But the main reason it's best - it still uses stuck filter.
So it will add KeyOff after some time of stucking... Also it works from the very start of Bios, so even in other OS. I just want to find some program that can trackdown the values in memory that it changes and applies, and get it in
your program.<br>my keyboard now is Turbo-Media KB9801R+.</div>

<div class="inner" id="msg_2156499">Does anyone know what the default Key Repeat settings are in Windows 7? I plan on setting it with FilterKeys, but if it proves problematic, is it possible to do it through Windows? An internet search
proved fruitless. I have never experienced a problem with FilterKeys in the past but ever since messing with the settings on a recent install, it seems like my IBM Model M just isn't typing like it was prior to doing it; e.g. it seems
shift and control keys sometimes are not triggered and if I am typing quickly, it's prone to mistakes. After some playing around it's almost back to normal but it isn't perfect. Not sure whether a Windows 7 update is to blame or, if it's
something with how my MB inputs PS/2 signals, or if I am just losing my motor skills along with my sanity. I have yet to try it with my only USB keyboard (Matias Ergo Pro).<br><br>To the OP—I would like to thank you personally for this
program. I have been using it heavily since 2013—I dare say that it has been one of, if not the greatest, productivity enhancer(s) that I've used. You see, I am a big fan of 'caret browsing', both for the web and PDFs, and if I want to
read and something in detail, I will enable it and hold the right arrow key in and scroll; FilterKeys doubled the speed of this process. It may seem like a useless thing to do, but if you are reading dry textbooks on material that you
could care less about, it really allows you to read at a consistent rate without the mind going astray. This program has saved me countless dozens of hours (prior, I would just read through as the repeat rate for any keyboard, even my
Maltron, was just too slow) and I would even go as far as crediting it for helping me get through my last (nearly 3, now?) years of college. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for uploading it to this site, otherwise I would
have never found it.</div>

FOR A FASTER KEY REPEAT (IN WINDOWS) « on: Sun, 31 March 2013, 19:07:55 » This is just a quick and dirty utility for making FilterKeys settings, which allows values that are not possible to set using the standard Windows UI. It's main use would be, as the title says, to set faster repeat than is normally possible. The easiest way to use it for that purpose is to click 'Keyboard', which sets all the values to the same as you've got set in the normal Keyboard settings dialog in Control Panel, and then change repeat delay and rate to your liking. If you want to make settings permanent, check the box 'Save to registry'. No rebooting, or logging off and then on again, is required. Source code is provided, in C++ for VS2003, which should be easy to convert to a later version of VS. Essentially it's just a wrapper for calling the SystemParametersInfo function with SPI_SETFILTERKEYS and passing it a FILTERKEYS structure. Related: How can I increase the key repeat rate beyond the OS's limit?, where there's some discussion and also source code for a command line utility that sets repeat rate and delay using FilterKeys. v1.0.1 - added an 'Apply' button. v1.0.2 - added a Test area. - added 'Original' button, which loads settings active when the utility was launched, as a half-assed 'Undo' feature. - replaced MFC icon with an equally crappy one! - added some parameter validation. - fixed bug where dialog closed when clicking OK even when setting failed.

Yes, only FilterKeys. The utility has all of the possible FilterKeys options, even though we would typically only use a few of them, just for completeness.

I don't know all of the details to give a guide! I simply put all the options there were into the utility. I haven't worked out exactly what 'Available' does yet, for example. Most of the other flags appear in the standard Windows UI for FilterKeys, but aren't really much use to us... 59 seems as good a choice as any for 'On', and 58 for 'Off' Logged XT/AT/PS2/122 Converter + Keyboard Controller + WYSE Converter + Simple Logic Analyzer -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- F U R U Y Á * * * Posts: 427 * RE: FILTERKEYS SETTER...

Adding something to a group usually happens with holding shift key down. It also writes me capital letters.

So my guess is that Starcraft 2 doesn't like FilterKeys being active (or that it's something unrelated, and just coincidence). Does double-tapping shift get that locking mode as well perhaps? I found a post where someone used double-tap shift to clear a stuck shift. If that's a game feature, perhaps you can change the time it uses for detecting the double-tap in a config file to be less than your repeat delay.

I found this thread trough a helpful individual at overclock.net that told me about it. I have been looking for ways to tamper with my repeat delay and repeat rate lately. I tried the software "Keyboard King" earlier but the program i have in mind, SC2, does not work too well with Keyboard king. After changing repeat delay and repeat rate trough this software on average 1 out of 3 or 4 clicks would be a failed one in SC2, but there would never be any failed ones outside of SC2. The failed clicks would not have the changed repeat delay and rate values but would have the windows control panel values. Such inconsistency obviously just makes things worse so i simply couldnt use Keyboard King for SC2. It should be mentioned that changing repeat delay and rate for SC2 is allowed, but obviously not too many people are using values outside of the windows control panel so its somewhat of an unexplored territory as of right now. The developers of Keyboard King has not updated the software for 9 years now but it seems to be the main software for its purpose even today. I have not found any other similar software. After Keyboard king didnt work out i tried using windows filterkeys, but i found that SC2 did not like this either, every now and then while in a game the shift function would just go crazy. I just tried it again right now and it seems SC2 goes shift crazy randomly even if you dont press the shift key at all. Other strange selection bugs seems to occur as well. I just tried your program Soarer and unfortunately i got the exact same behaviour in SC2 as i got from my experiences with windows FilterKeys (well, your program is FilterKeys simplified, so i guess i shouldnt be surprised, but i thought somehow maybe it would work and it was always worth a try). I read HOKis comment and i tried all kinds of settings in the windows control panel but i still get the same behaviour in SC2. So if you (or anyone else reading this) can figure out a way to use filterkeys or any software providing a lower repeat delay than windows control panels lowest 250 ms combined with a decently high repeat rate in SC2, without SC2 being all buggy, then let me know! But im sure you didnt have SC2 in mind when you made your software so i understand if you dont want to spend time looking into the matter. After all, it could just be SC2 that is the issue and that right now there is no way to get a repeat delay and rate changing software to work correctly with it. « Last Edit: Wed, 10 April 2013, 16:13:32 by Etran » Logged -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOARER * Moderator * Thread Starter * * Posts: 1918 * Location: UK * RE: FILTERKEYS SETTER...

Since I don't play it, I can't really help directly in solving these problems, but if I have any ideas on what might help I'll post them. I'm not sure what setting HOKi changed, or if it's a part of Windows. I'm pretty familiar with the different ways that games in general might read keys, but I just can't think what it is that SC2 might be doing that makes it incompatible with FilterKeys (which, after, all, is an OS feature so presumably less 'quirky' than 3rd-party utilities).

I use non ANSI layout (pt-br ABNT2, set at Windows Control Panel) in an ANSI keyboard, so I press right Alt+W for the "?" character (in the picture you can see why). When I'm inside SC2 and in the menus (not playing a game), this works fine (Alt+W works). However, when I'm playing a game this does not work (Alt+W does not work). Quote from: Etran on Wed, 10 April 2013, 14:25:40 > The failed clicks would not have the changed repeat delay and rate values but > would have the windows control panel values. That's exactly what I expected. I think that SC2 tries to make the game the fairest possible using only standard OS configurations, which is a very nice feature imo. Note: What I have just described is what happened in WoL (I'm months without playing). I went to test it right now and the game has completely changed (had to wait for gigabytes of updates!). It now has a completely new UI, features and system, HotS-like. And for my surprise, now I can use Alt+W inside the game. I think that the previous anti-macro system (or fair system, or equal condition sytem, or whatever you wanna call it ) was even more hardcore than it currently is!

FOR A FASTER KEY REPEAT (IN WINDOWS) « Reply #20 on: Thu, 11 April 2013, 06:16:19 » Thanks for responding guys! Based on what i know i doubt that SC2 has any anti repeat delay/rate changing or anti macro feature though. I know of certain casual players that use macros without any problems while playing SC2, a terran friend of mine has a macro for making a ton of marines by just one button click and he has used this for quite some time now. Macros are strictly forbidden in SC2 (stated very clearly by Blizzard) so a non casual SC2 player would never consider using a macro for anything in SC2, and that obv includes myself. And thus, we are obv never seeing a serious player showing up at a lan event with some macro functions to make use of, because that player would be disqualified in an instance. But based on what i know it seems macros work perfectly fine in SC2, and for casuals it seems to be more commonly used than one would think. Also i know that players have been able to play SC2 with a way higher repeat rate than the windows control panel max when using a keyboard with options for increased repeat rates, such as the Zowie Celeritas. But Keyboad King and FilterKeys (not macro software, just repeat delay/rate tweaking) as stated dont work well at all with SC2, while macro softwares seemingly work just fine. So i dont think the reason as for why Keyboard King and FilterKeys dont work too well with SC2 has to do with some purposely made anti repeat delay/rate tweaking or anti macro feature by Blizzard, but that it instead has do to with some programming conflict between the program and the software. Obviously an increased repeat rate or a lowered repeat delay is not a macro by any means, but since it can give an edge it is reasonable to question whether it should be allowed or not. I came across a post in a blizzard forum asking about tweaking repeat rate/delay values beyond the windows control panel (http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/2794772806) but he got no response by Blizzard. Blizzard has stated very clearly that macros are not allowed, but on the matter of tweaking repeat delay/rate it seems they have been silent. But not too many people have been asking about it anyways. In any case, i am still interested in getting FilterKeys or some other repeat delay/rate tweaking software to work for SC2 so if anyone here figures anything out let me know. What i would change is basically just lowering the repeat delay from 250 ms to about 120 ms (it cant be too low because that would make it so that i would double click control groups and other things by mistake). That would make it so that i would save significant time troughout a game when combining all the small moments where i save time. The repeat rate max in the control panel can stay the same as i dont find it as vital. But yea, lowering repeat delay also has its downsides, thats why one can select different levels of it in the control panel anyways. « Last Edit: Thu, 11 April 2013, 07:01:23 by Etran » Logged -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOARER * Moderator * Thread Starter * * Posts: 1918 * Location: UK * RE: FILTERKEYS SETTER...

Although they could probably have done it better by implementing their own repeat from scratch! F u r u y á... Your description of how it was (re. Alt-W), sounds like it was using Windows' key events in the menus, and DirectInput in the game... DirectInput doesn't have any key repeat functionality, so they'd have to write their own. With key events they still could do it, by tracking key state and ignoring repeated keys. Repeating keys from FilterKeys don't come through as event sequences of down-up-down-up-..., they are down-down-...-up (just like the normal repeat settings). Macros would be more likely to be down-up-down-up, and indeed have to be if they are done on a USB keyboard. Of course, if a macro is timed to be within the limits set, it wouldn't be detected anyway....

There's source code and a few links in the post which might help, but maybe the first thing to try is resetting the values. Either run FilterKeys Setter, click Default, Save to registry, Apply, or use the Accessibility Options Control Panel Applet to set something valid. Then see if the odd behaviour still happens when you edit the registry manually.

Especially Delay/Rate. But there's some trouble using these feature. When filterKeys flag is ON - It would not filter if some application slows and key will simply stuck, so I have to Press it again to Unpress. So In normal mode - after some waiting when key is stuck - it will unpress it. In "flag" on - it will not... By the way. I have a simple multimedia keyboard with feature to change typematic (7 modes. 4th - seems original mode.) 7th fastest - is like rate=10ms/delay=150ms. But the main reason it's best - it still uses stuck filter. So it will add KeyOff after some time of stucking... Also it works from the very start of Bios, so even in other OS. I just want to find some program that can trackdown the values in memory that it changes and applies, and get it in your program. my keyboard now is Turbo-Media KB9801R+.

I plan on setting it with FilterKeys, but if it proves problematic, is it possible to do it through Windows? An internet search proved fruitless. I have never experienced a problem with FilterKeys in the past but ever since messing with the settings on a recent install, it seems like my IBM Model M just isn't typing like it was prior to doing it; e.g. it seems shift and control keys sometimes are not triggered and if I am typing quickly, it's prone to mistakes. After some playing around it's almost back to normal but it isn't perfect. Not sure whether a Windows 7 update is to blame or, if it's something with how my MB inputs PS/2 signals, or if I am just losing my motor skills along with my sanity. I have yet to try it with my only USB keyboard (Matias Ergo Pro). To the OP—I would like to thank you personally for this program. I have been using it heavily since 2013—I dare say that it has been one of, if not the greatest, productivity enhancer(s) that I've used. You see, I am a big fan of 'caret browsing', both for the web and PDFs, and if I want to read and something in detail, I will enable it and hold the right arrow key in and scroll; FilterKeys doubled the speed of this process. It may seem like a useless thing to do, but if you are reading dry textbooks on material that you could care less about, it really allows you to read at a consistent rate without the mind going astray. This program has saved me countless dozens of hours (prior, I would just read through as the repeat rate for any keyboard, even my Maltron, was just too slow) and I would even go as far as crediting it for helping me get through my last (nearly 3, now?) years of college. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for uploading it to this site, otherwise I would have never found it.
