Reloaded.Universal.DInputPleaseCooperate 1.0.6

Ever play a game, try to take a screenshot ... and nothing happens? Game's blocking your hotkeys?

Here's a universal mod for games using DirectInput that should hopefully unblock your precious keys.

Compatibility

In theory this should work with any DirectInput application.

In practice, I have tested it with the following:

  • Sonic Riders
  • Eiyuu Densetsu: Ao no Kiseki

How it Works

This is a very simple mod that works by hooking the SetCooperativeLevel function of DirectInput.

It unsets the Exclusive flag that prevents other applications from reading the keyboard as well as the NoWinKey flag.

The NoWinKey flag is a bit misleading. It actually does a bit more than blocking the Windows key, such as blocking hotkeys registered through Windows API's RegisterHotkey function. Many applications, such as the popular screenshot utility ShareX use that API for receiving hotkeys.
