G-Hotkey Changelog

What's new in G-Hotkey 3.62.1.0

Sep 7, 2017
  • Updated the installer program to resolve issues with Windows 10 OS.
  • Added the option to add web (.url) files in the Location: input box.

New in G-Hotkey 3.62 (Apr 29, 2015)

  • Minor speed optimizations added which should improve response time.
  • You can now set the Key Delay (ms) to 0 (note that the actual response delay is still 1-2ms)
  • Updated the G-Hotkey Setup.exe installer to fix minor install issues.

New in G-Hotkey 3.61 (Nov 10, 2009)

  • A minor memory leak when loading dialog elements in the event loop has been fixed.
  • When the G-Hotkey taskbar icon is initially created the following pop-up appears over the icon now: 'Please wait {game load} seconds while G-Hotkey initializes...' - this is done before the pop-up with the key combination to exit G-Hotkey is displayed as some users were trying to exit G-Hotkey before it even initialized.

New in G-Hotkey 3.51 (Jan 30, 2009)

  • Changed code to run almost as fast as a high performance timer so 1ms delay time for key presses is now very close to 1ms actual computer time.
  • Removed CRC32 checks and obfuscator for the G-Hotkey executable - this was known to cause serious performance problems with some types of anti-virus software.

New in G-Hotkey 3.5 (Jun 11, 2007)

  • The priority level 'Idle' for G-Hotkey has been removed due to inconsistent output rate.
  • In the previous version of G-Hotkey you may have received the message 'An instance of G-Hotkey is already active' when you never launched another instance of G-Hotkey - this has been fixed.
  • Support for Windows� Vista.
  • The installer will give the everyone group modify access to the 'UserData' folder that stores the G-Hotkey configuration files (this is under the G-Hotkey program folder). This will allow you to run G-Hotkey with a standard user account (non-admin), but still allow G-Hotkey to save configuration files. It is recommended under Windows� XP and Vista to use a standard user account during normal usage to help prevent accidental or intentional damage to the operating system from occurring.
  • Note that CRC32 checks are run against the G-Hotkey executable and G-Hotkey will exit if it detects the presence of an active debugger.

New in G-Hotkey 3.33 (Nov 3, 2006)

  • The keycode 'Pau' was used twice in the virtualkeycodes.ini file. Once for the Pause key and also for the Page Up key which disabled the Page Up key from working. The Pause key has now been assigned the keycode 'Pas' and the Page Up key has been assigned 'Pau' - now the Page Up key works properly. Note that the executables have not changed version numbers as no changes were made - only the virtualkeycodes.ini file was changed.
  • Note that CRC32 checks are run against the G-Hotkey executable and G-Hotkey will exit if it detects the presence of an active debugger.
