	I've tried for well over 30 minutes to get the image search function in AHK to recognize a sub image of the DDO screen without success. I have been able to get it to recognize the sub image when I open the original screen capture. Also been able to successfully send key substitutions and just blind key send commands to DDO. I tried to pick a piece of the screen with a non translucent background and nothing that moves. If you have any tips on maybe the color tolerance options or maybe file resolutions to help make this work, I would appreciate it.

	Make your own images. Someone else's are bound to be a different resolution. Print screen, ms paint, paste, crop.

	Yeah, I did that. I tried a piece of the map and a snip where my character name was. Sigh. I run DDO windowed with a pretty random size. I assumed the aspect ratio stayed constant and the game used the OS resolution.

	Moving on. I got it to work using alt-printscreen, pasting into paint and cutting my little piece out to save as a png file. One of those two made the difference.� Too lazy to figure out which one Edit: I had been using the game's print screen, opening in paint and saving as bitmap.

	I'm curious what are you using AHK and image recognition to do?

	Usually I use a combination of ram value reading and image recognition to make a more more or less universal bots for stuff.

	I am pretty sure I have posted about it before, but WinActivate, Dungeons and Dragons Online ahk_class Turbine Device Class SetFormat, Float, 0.2 ADDRESSY = 0x01817944 ADDRESSX = 0x01817940 DllCall("ReadProcessMemory", "UInt", ProcessHandle, "UInt", ADDRESSX, "Float", X, "Uint", 4, "Uint", 0) DllCall("ReadProcessMemory", "UInt", ProcessHandle, "UInt", ADDRESSY, "Float", Y, "Uint", 4, "Uint", 0) That should be enough to get you started if you are really interested.

Will have to try that. Seems like that would be much more reliable than timing keys up and down.

	it is, though you have to find the new values each time they patch the servers. Only takes 5 minutes though.
