Lol no worries. I'll still try to do an emulated run and see what happens.

Hmmmm well it may be for naught but I may just run it on emulator for the love of the game, submit and see what happens if anything.

Emulators accepted?

Yeah not a bad idea. Keyboard is working for now. Might try that later. Thanks!

Updated development. Seems to work if I do not set the hotkey to a button on my controller. Works fine with keyboard but makes it interesting to try and time. Any info with the gamepad being an issue?

I have done a bit of research to try and fix this issue, even using chat GPT and I can't seem to get this working.

Issue

  • When playing any game LiveSplit hot keys will not work.
  • Using Crazy Taxi steam version as an example with a dual monitor setup, I have my hot key set to one of my bumper buttons. If I click the bumper button and I am not in game, live split works.
  • If I am in game and I try to use the bumper button nothing happens.
  • If I click off the game to select live split controls work fine again but game is either froze until I click on the window again (windowed mode) or minimizes screen and pauses (full screen mode)

Setting on live split to try and fix issue

  • Global Hotkeys checked
  • Double Tap Prevention checked
  • Allow Gamepad as Hotkeys checked
  • Deactivate For Other Programs currently unchecked but have tried both ways
  • Simple Sum of Best Calculation checked
  • Warn On Rest if Better Times checkd

Computer specs

  • Ryzen 9 5900x 12 core
  • 32 gigs of ram
  • Nvidia RTX 3090
  • Windows 11

Windows settings I have tried to change

  • Game mode turned off
  • Run LiveSplit as admin
  • Run Steam as admin (since I can't run game specific as admin and was told this should fix the issue for all steam games)

I have also tried this with DoDonPachi to rule out it being game specific and the issue persists. Attempts are starting to become much more solid and I know I could get a run on the board but I can't seem to figure out how to get LiveSplit to work
