Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
This is a program to remap the cursor keys for FFR. It pre-dates the addition of in-game remapping. but improves on it by supporting all possible keys as well as dance-pads, guitar controllers etc. It also adds very convenient boo-out and try-again keys. It is designed to have the minimum of timing delay:
No longer available Make sure the in-game remapper is set to the cursor keys Screenshot: No longer available The program defaults to remapping FFR R1, and can remap the cursors for other windows or programs too. Unfortunately, R2 and Resonance use low level keyboard access and it doesn't work with them. Minimum Specification Works in Windows XP and Windows Vista (may need to use "Run as Administrator" in Vista). I'm afraid I'm not a Mac or Linux programmer, sorry guys... NOTE: To get the absolute minimum of timing delay, the program injects a message hook directly into the target window. This is flagged up as a potential attack by many firewalls and spyware programs - because accessing another window's messages could indicate unauthorised activity. In fact, the program is harmless and simply needs access to the keyboard messages to do its job. However, to be open, I've put the entire project and source code on the above site, so it can be checked and compiled by those who know how. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I maybe would have added a key to be able to boo out quickly and such, but other than that very nice work. It even lags the game less than AHK does.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Good idea. Just a moment......
......clank.... .....clunk... ....scrape.... ...beep... There - uploaded a new version (1.01) - now has a 'Boo Out' key. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Works really well! :D
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
now make it for mac! =|
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
when i go to open it, it says there's an application error.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Good job all I can say, definetly easier to setup then AHK, lags less also and the boo out is a nice addon, but as gnr said, make it for mac ;)
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Gnr61, tepsu: I don't have a Mac, and I don't know about programming them either, sorry...
blindreper1179: Do you get this error when you run the installer (FFR-Keymap 1.01 Setup.exe), or the program (FFR-Keymap)? |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
i click it, it says install. i install it. i leave the box checked at the end to run it, and then it says application error.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
blindreper1179: I've been able to reproduce the error on one of my machines. I will come back with a fix shortly...
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I've fixed the "Application Error" bug reported by blindreper1179. Too busy to update the version number - so redownload version 1.01
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Nice work! AHK was laggy like hell on my computer, and this works wonder. Congrats on making such a simple, but complete program.
6/5 for this! |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
nice, ill try it
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
alright, i'll redownload and try again.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I don't know if it would be doable, but a "Try this song again" keymap would be great. Or you could only stay your mouse over the button and click on some key to try again.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Not a good idea because then the score will not register.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
redownloaded and it works ausomely.
thanks for this. i've been waiting for the ingame mapping, but oh well now. thanks again. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
What language was this written in? It's very nice.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Pretty intresting, I'll try it and check it out.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Thankfully, there's no price to pay for uninstalling this, unlike AHK (which took out something vital when I uninstalled it). It also works really well.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
On second thought, this is absolutely amazing.
xD I highly suggest this to anyone reading the thread. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
whoa dude.. you are amazing haha.
This should take the place of jwc's AHK sticky. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Not really, you have to pass and at that rate you'll zing out of the level instantly.

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
It's already easy to get the ST for Silence, and anyone with AHK could do worse, so shhh.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Also, is it just me, or does this program reduce avmisses too? I usually average around 40 of them on bb revenge, but I only ended up with like 20.
Edit: I also just got like 8 of them instead of the usual 20 on Vertex Beta |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
freaky, blindreper, anyone else.... do not forget that we log unusual game results... freaky's 4000+ boos was logged as unusualy and blindreper had 2 logged as such as well.
now, if someone else happens to look at that page (which I have no idea if they will)... they may wipe your levelrank. i understand what happened... they might. so, be wary when you do stupid things like that. |

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
oh dang, thanks for the heads up.
no more of that. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
500 is fine. 5000 is not.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I've uploaded a new version (1.02) that prevents excessive boos from the 'Boo Out' key. It still works, but won't generate more than 100 or so boos (usually 24). I suggest everyone download it to avoid problems.
During development, I made a programming mistake and got 13000 boos on one song... I've been working hard on my level rank, hope it doesn't get stamped on... :cry: Wootsicle: The program is in C++ |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Downloading v1.02 now. =)
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Ok, so this is absolutely amazing! Great job! It's getting me more goods though, probably cause it works faster than ahk.

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
![]() Gave it a try. Seems to keep up nicely considering I had no problem nailing the 8th jumpstream, still missed on jacks but it seemed to respond much quicker. I'm not sure though. Edit; yeah it works very well. ![]() |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Just downloaded and wow i had no idea how much AHK lagged ffr(AHK+multiplayer=death)
This should be a sticky it works great. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Absolutely AMAZING
And WTF four hard drives and a vista drive!?!!? lol |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Move over, AHK! Your long lost brother than whoops you in everything has returned.
I love this thing. XD |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Amazing job.
Is it possible to be made so it can run in the notification area when minimized? |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
You just made my day ;D |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I don't understand these posts saying AHK lags. I've never had a problem with it on my crap computer. Nice job on the program, if it works for people then that's what matters.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Woohoo! A++!
Now i can play pettanko XD |

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
All this program needs is a function to minimize it to your icons bar.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Great Program. I got it. Thank You!

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
If the author is still checking it, would you mind if I post the source code of this program into a forum that helps Mac people, maby they would know how to somehow re-create or convert this to a Mac?
*Edit* Also, sticky dis lol! |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Can you put a function to suspend the program by pressing a button?
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Why isn't this stickied? xD
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
This program allowed me to...
![]() |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Thanks everyone for the interest and positive comments. Some good ideas - I will make an updated version which minimises to the notification area and maybe add a suspend button too. Keep an eye on this thread...
tepsu: I'm sure there is a way to do something similar on a Mac, but this source code is very Windows-specific so I doubt it would help a Mac programmer very much. Feel free to post it elsewhere though. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Ok thanks, maby someone will actually go through the trouble of re-creating something like this, I don't know, or maby I will come a Mac OS coder in the next couple of months lol... Anyway gonna post it and see if it catches anyone's interest.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
A new version available (1.05). Added minimise to tray and a global on/off key:
http://www.latent.demon.co.uk/ffr_keymap.html The global on/off key is only needed if you frequently switch between FFR and typing in the same browser. You don't need it to use a different window (e.g. MSN). Leave it disabled if you don't use it. Enjoy... |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I've made another update (1.06) that fixes a bug with extended keys such as right shift/alt.
Tass et al, could you please sticky this as it clearly helps a great number of peeps. At least as useful as AHK for many... |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
i use it now instead of AHK.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I'll try it.

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
definitely. i love it oh so much.

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Hey guys, look up a program called "Total Game Control" the retail version is 19.95 I believe, the deal is this: bind any key/mouse/joystick to anything. Might be really good for people with dual-analog or Xbox controllers as you can bind a analog and some buttons for your mouse ;)
Working great for me, I just cannot play DDR/FFR/SM with a keyboard :D |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
i recommend you to add an extra button\key stroke option to "try again"
i did it in my AHK script with the movemouse to the try again button position and press works for me on full screen so less annoying then taking your hands off the keyboard every time when you try to AAA with autofail |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
get a ,ap top and you wil be able to do evrything on the keyboard

Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
if you want to add the line to your AHK script until MRichards will sup that
p:: MouseMove, 850,460 ,0 MouseClick, left, 850,460 MouseMove, 1000,460 ,0 Return |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Of course the person who plays SIU on keyboard would know... but that option would be neat =)
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
i did not know i ask for help on it just now here
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/topic22944.html and it is super neat just AAAd "until the end" with this things help |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Can it be made so that we can load it onto and run it off a flash drive?
I've been playing with this for a while and when I use AHK off my flash drive it makes me suck. |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I've upped a new version (1.07) with a 'Try Again' key.
http://www.latent.demon.co.uk/ffr_keymap.html The mouse cursor needs to be somewhere over the FFR window for it to work - no time to work out why right now. Just move the mouse near the "Multiplayer", "News" & "Help" buttons below the playing area and it works fine. You can define the 'Boo Out' and 'Try Again' buttons to the same key for convenience. I've also put up a zip file containing just the required files - no installer. You could use this to put the program on a Flash drive or memory stick. EDIT: Just realised that the 'Try Again' mouse limitation is a pain when using my other smoothing tool. I'll up a fix tomorrow... |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
MRichards.. your the badger!
EDIT: wheres 1.07 i still see 1.06 |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Errrr... It's there for me...
Have you tried refreshing your browser, or maybe clearing the cache? If anyone else can't see it then give a shout... |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
yep working on a different browser awesome!
EDIT: works like a charm a lot of happy players cuz of you today iam sure needs to be on the front page or something this program is a FFR Player MUST |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I see it. Trying now.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
Awesome awesome program. I'm keeping 1.06 :)
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
I'm gonna download the newest version in a minute, but is it possible that you could get the arrow keys to work for resonance? That'd be so awesome to be able to play askl on a sim without having to download it first.
dore, why are you keeping 1.06? |
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
This is an awesome program, I used it all yesterday and beat many of my ranks just because of less lag. Thanks a bunch.
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
the try again key isn't working for me =\
|
Re: Simple Alternative for Key Remapping
lol it is for me

The programming language for mac is Unix based, so if you know unix, perhaps you could give it a try?
