While not ideal, you can use any keyboard like this if you install Microsoft PowerToys Personally I set the keys to F13-F24 as they're widely unused and OBS can detect them
@BryceDixonDevАй бұрын
I heard about this and immediately imagined people with 3+ of them all customized to different macros. It's shocking 8bitdo didn't even consider that as an option before launching it.

If we all collectively complain maybe they will add it to their ultimate software. I got a set of the new super buttons as well as the joystick for the keyboard and it’s pretty fun to use for Mario. Hopefully you try those too.

It doesn't excuse them not letting you make the Numpad do macros, but lemme just say what I did to get this functionality. I made a autohotkey script, which is very easy to learn to do basic things like remapping keys in. I said in the script to basically take the useless button that opens calculator and make it so whenever I push that and a Numpad button it does something. For the best use with external software, use the f13-24 keys, and the script would litterly just be: "launch_app2 & numpad0::f13" and so on, then in whatever software just bind it to that extra fkey.
@thatzaliasguyАй бұрын
Either flash it with QMK and use VIA to customize it, or rebind your OBS keybinds to the corresponding numbpad buttons.
@DiscoCokkroachАй бұрын
Do note that you can set hotkeys in OBS to your numpad keys and still pretty much get the same effect. Unless the hotkeys only work when the OBS window is in focus or something.
@hf4229Ай бұрын
I just got the C64 version in today and it’s amazing. Very tactile and loud (almost too loud lol) and the keycaps are actually concave the same way a real Commodore 64 keyboard is. And it’s very big and sturdy which some people won’t love. I’ll be ordering the num pad next week to match. Maybe they’ll include macro support and most likely there’s secondary software that allows it

I feel like the biggest issue is it seems to just mirror the keyboard 0-9 keys, so alt codes for special symbols and characters won't work. I originally thought that would also mean it wouldn't work with Blender which uses the numpad for navigation but it does seem to work fine that, which makes me wonder if there's something more going on
@splicetape943518 күн бұрын
If I'm not mistaken, using the codes for special characters requires the ALT key to be pressed on the same device to get it to work.

@DaminiteАй бұрын
First time huh? Guess he never tried the micro. Mine has been the worst thing 8bitdo has ever made. The d-pad it's so bad it often registers multiple directions at once including the opposite direction as the direction I pressed, all of the face buttons have a fairly long travel before the press is registered, and even though it's supposed to work with the ”ultimate software”, yeah, good luck with that. It only worked once and then immediately disconnected again. I even exchanged it twice and the same issues persisted.
