Forum thread for Lockdown

I may not have a active Wildstar account and so cannot reply on the Carbine forums. Please use these forums for support.

Thank you to the Wildstar community moderator Chillia for redirecting users here.

SurileD, please replace the contents of the ahk script with this:

Make sure to reload the script from the tray afterwords.

Okay so I just updated the mod even though curse said I was up to date, and now it works.

 Weird, but good news.

Hey Xuerian,

Thanks for all the effort so far.

I tried that new script you linked, but still the same.

Could you try the above, then? Delete, redownload, re-run? I don't want to say that is the problem, but it's possibly a easier solution.

How would I go about relocating the reticle? I would prefer it to be a little higher on the screen. 

I know it will take changes in both the Lockdown lua and the ahk script

As you saw in the script it's not quite done. If you really want to do it now, use the one I posted and change it at the top.

Edit: Don't use the one I posted. Edit according to your note.

In the Lua, change the number at the end of this line, at the bottom of the file:

    local nMidW, nMidH = tSize.nWidth/2, tSize.nHeight/2 - 100

Very weird...

Re installing via curse client didnt work, but a manual install from the website fixed it for me... Thanks anyways Xureian, you are a legend.

 Glad you got it working, I'll add that to the list of troubleshooting tips, too.. That list is getting pretty long.

I have already been tinkering with your addon the last few days while you try to work around this problem. Before now I had adapted it to use the that ActionControls was using where the cursor would just show up wherever the mouse actually was located on screen. I also wasn't using the AHK til tonight though.

You're welcome to make pull requests on Github if you have something you'd like to become part of the mod, or open a issue with the code.

Though I'm not sure about the rest of what you were saying, it is slightly garbled.

Another Deadlock based mod called ActionControls used the following method since the SetMouseLock change. When you lock the mouse, it draws a crosshair at the location that the mouse was at. So without using AHK, you can at least see where your mouseover point is. I had adapted Lockdown (because it works the best out of any of the other addons) to use this functionality, as I was not using AHK along with it before tonight.

edit: Using this method, you could eliminate the need to set the reticle position in both the lua and the ahk.

That's a neat workaround. Thanks for trying to get it working.

However, I'd like Carbine to fix the bug, and in the meantime, restoring correct functionality with the AHK works for me. Ideally, Carbine will remove the need for everything the AHK does sooner than later.

Welcome anyone intending to comment on the Curse page, this is the right spot.

Great addon, loved it. But i've encountered an issue where i can't change the keys set in the script.

I can't bind the default ones you've set, namely - and =, because on a Swedish layout i have to use shift to access them. So i have to change them myself in the script settings. Which worked in previous versions. But for some reason it won't work in this new version, i changed from the default ones to 9 and 0 in the first part of the script so it says

ahk_lmb := "9"
ahk_rmb := "0"

but it just won't take, whenever i press the mousebuttons in-game it keeps opening chat with / and then typing - and = when i click my mouse buttons. It worked in the beginning, but now it just stopped working.
I have reloaded the script, looking around in other files but nothing seems to allow me to actually rebind what keys the mouse will click.

You change it right in Lockdown now. The instructions in the description have already been updated accordingly =)

Glad you like it.
