TapKey

Jump to navigation Jump to search


A command for Oblivion Script Extender

Syntax:

(nothing) TapKey dxScanCode:long

Tells Oblivion that the player has pressed a given button, and Oblivion will react accordingly. This function uses DirectX scancodes.

Examples[edit | edit source]

TapKey 18 ;E

The player will jump (assuming default set-up).

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • DirectX scancodes are typically in hexadecimal, but this function takes decimal values.
  • As well as the normal DX scancodes, you can use the numbers 256 to 263 to fake mouse button presses, and also 264 and 265 for mouse wheel movement.
  • It seems that TapKey will not work in menumode. Use MenuTapKey instead.
    • Except for the console button (~ or 41); you have to use TapKey, even in a MenuMode, to force open/close the console.
