Hi, the key biding feature is really great, we use it to change servers while we change team.
But there's one problem. In most game all keys are doing something, and so pressing them does this thing (nooo, reallyy?? :) )
That's where it hurts: We can't find easy access key in BF1942 for example to map the change server key to.
Take the example, we map the "change to server #1" function to CTRL + 1.
When we change to server one, we switch to the knife weapon, great :)

Would it be possible to hide to the game the keys pressed for a TS shortcut.
Pressing "1" would give you the knife, while pressing CTRL+1 would do nothing in game as the game wouldn't see it.

Thanks for answers :)

this is not possible, TeamSpeak is just "listening in" to the keystrokes, not changing them.

Ok :(
I thought it was like that yes, but I was wondering weither it's possible or not to make TS change the keystroke, with a hook for example.
Under windows it's possible, but I won't tell anything about Linux, which I don't know enough.
Anyway, thanx for the fast answer!

Well, you could write your own program that hooks after TS and swallows the keypress and keyrelease.

Yeah, but I don't think it's easy to know that the keys were or not used by TS.
It's more inside TS that it's possible to do.
I'll try anyway... can't promise.
It's even impossible to be sure weither TS will already have got the keypress when I hook it.
