    text
    copied!<p>I'm looking to create a global mouse hook that works in XP/Vista/7 which would allow me to access the X,Y values that the mouse is inputting, and modify those values before they hit Windows...</p> <p>I also want to be able to simulate mouse inputs in between actual mouse inputs...</p> <p>For example, lets say our inputs looked like this:</p> <p>1: 1,0 2: 2,0 3: 3,0 4: ?,?</p> <p>I want to be able to intercept input number 4 and run it through an 'if' statement: If the value of the input matches certain parameters, I want to modify the value by adding or subtracting from it...</p> <p>A USB Mouse has a default polling rate of 125Hz and a maximum of 1000hz... </p> <p>If possible (especially when the polling rate is set less than 1000hz) I would like to 'inject' inputs 'between' actual mouse updates (critical) so for example:</p> <p>(in milliseconds)</p> <p>0008 - 1,0 0016 - 1,0 0032 - 2,0</p> <p>So the mouse is updating at 125Hz... Could I detect the frequency of inputs, and send an input every other input??? So for example I could 'double' the mouse frequency from 125hz to 250hz, and simulate my own 'in between' updates based on whatever rules I set...</p> <p>Does any of these seem reasonable? Right now I am working in C# and I was working with the "Gma.UserActivityMonitor" from this tutorial here: <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/globalhook.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/globalhook.aspx</a> but for some reason I get a performance hit which makes utilizing this code with fullscreen games have an unusable lag on the mouse inputs due to the hook... </p> <p>Perhaps I need to write something in C++? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!</p>
