AHK suddenly not working with SW:TOR

SWTOR doesn't let you rebind mouse 1 and 2, so I've been using AHK to accomplish that. Today, they launched a major patch, and now my script isn't working. Is it even possible for an application to block use of AHK? Or is there some reason my script would suddenly stop working?

Here's what I'm using:

#ifWinActive Star Wars: The Old Republic
{
$+Rbutton::
  send +'
    return
$+LButton::
  Send +]
  return
$!Rbutton::
  send +[
  return
$!Lbutton::
  send +;
  return
}

The title changed, according to AutoIt3 Window Spy it is, Star Wars™: The Old Republic™

However, simply updating the title text in my script did NOT work.

What I ended up doing...

SetTitleMatchMode,2

#ifWinActive Star Wars
; Your code here

And that seemed to do the trick.

Brand new to AHK, so just trying to make a simple hotkey for SWTOR and can't get it to work. My script worked in Notepad, but not in SWTOR. Based on this thread, I changed it to

SetTitleMatchMode,2

#ifWinActive Star Wars
; Your code here

^F4::Send 1

Shouldn't that press the 1 key when I press ctrl F4 in SWTOR?

Thanks in advance for any help, Eric

If you are going to use the send command, you must also insert return at the end like this:

SetTitleMatchMode,2

#ifWinActive Star Wars
; Your code here

^F4::
Send 1
return

But since your command is a simple remap, you can skip using send command. Send is for sending strings of keys I think.

SetTitleMatchMode,2

#ifWinActive Star Wars
; Your code here

^F4::1

I´ve many scripts for SWTOR. You may have to compile the script to exe and run the exe-file as windowsadmin.

Bear in mind that a few keys are hardcoded in SWTOR and will not work, as far as I know anyway. Not sure if Ctrl-F4 is one of them, but maybe try something simple as

I::O

just to see if it works ;-)
