press + hold

Post by reta »

I'm trying to emulate a NES controller:

As you probably know, when you press and hold one of the buttons on that controller you can in some nes games jump higher the longer you hold it, or load up for a bigger shot/hit/whatever.

I know I can repeat an action, but that will cancel the action between the repeats. I have been searching around a bit but only found people looking for a action to repeat their key press.. but is there a way to simply make the program emulate a key press + hold for as long as I hold down the button (on my remote for instance)?

Thanks in advance!

It's already in EventGhost is probably why nobody answered. It's called jump if long press and I use it to start MPC-HOME.. add that with On Screen Explorer to start media and it rules.
