If this works out, I see a possible G15 in my near future.

Hehe dude they are very awesome boards,and now they can be had for a great price.Plus when my family uses the KB they all say "Damn those keys feel really good!I want a KB that has a little resistance in the keys now".

Plus I think that every gamer should have one in their arsenal!

(Speaks in The Price is Right,Rod Roddy announcers voice) But if you are a more ambitious individual I think you should opt for one of these bad boys!!!! :)

Thats right diablo2121,this all new for 2009 G18 Keyboard from Logitech comes complete with two USB ports, 12 fully programmable G-keys with three macros per key, giving you 36 time-saving commands per game. A color GamePanel LCD of 320-by-240-pixel display can be found on the keyboard, which provides in-game information for over sixty games. In addition to in-game information, the screen can show VoIP communication data, clock, CPU load, or other non-gaming specific items such as pictures or even YouTube videos!!!!:evil:

This could be yours,but only if the price is RIGHT!:lol:

I love your idea. If there's one thing the G15 (and newer versions) has always reminded me of it's that it's a lot like the DC's vmu. I'd like to see that in action myself too.
(I have a G15 myself too (the newer, orange screen version))

Well thanks.I wanted this for a good while,and to Psyman,I owe a great amount of debt to as well.Without him this absolutely would NOT be possible hehe.I am glad to see that the great multitude of G15 nullDC users are speaking out about wanting this as badly as I do(lol how many of us play DC games on PC? ;) ).I mean I have looked down at it before and have thought about it having the lcd in common,but the Eureka moment didn't really hit me till like 1-2 weeks ago.

Again I think all the credit goes to Psyman,I only had the idea,but he is the one implementing it.:thumb:

Well if we want to see this we need to Cheer him on lol.I had a friend making a Delorean model to put in an Interstate 76 mod for Battlefield 2.Well it was in November of 07 that he started,guess what?He still aint done hehe.I'm just not the type to push people that are making things for me for free you know?That is kinda messed up.But cheering is a whole different ball game,its what you could call a loophole in the system.:evil:

I can't wait to see how the G19 is priced when its released in oz! I have my eye on it! :D

But for now my G15 "Refresh" is a sick board!

The changeable colour scheme for the keys has an insane appeal to me and obviously the 320x240pixel screen sounds sweet too! (Imagine an entire emu being playable using the G19 screen :lol:)

I am looking forward to seeing the apps that come to use the screen to its full potential and I am not concerned about having a power lead added for the keyboard!

Yeah, prices here are like very outdated. I see my purchase future on very long distances.... Sadly with that, when the product arrives, the warranty already expired. >_<

Back-on-topic tryout: Anyhow, how's the plugin going? XD

Well I have a friend that lives in Argentina and he tells me that its imposible to find GTA IV in shops and a PS3 is like 1500 pesos or something?

But ya,good question,any update at all there PsyMan?No rush tho,its all good and let me know when you have something to test and I will be more than happy to test it out for you. ;)

Actually.... I haven't looked at it yet. xD

Got bored after getting all the stuff and that was it. The only change since then are the useless G15 related programs added on the Windows startup.

Also note that there is no way I'm gonna make a plugin from scratch. I'll just hook the G15 stuff on top of razi's plugin when I feel like it. :p

Sweet mate, that is actually how I would expect it to be done in regards to adding it to an existing plug-in rather than creating a whole new one!

With this and controller support I will be set :D

No rush guys (Raz, Psy and all others involved), the longer we wait the better the next release will be :thumb:

Fixed up the output some hours ago so it looks good now on the LCD emulator. Also had someone test it for me on an actual G15 (which also seems to work fine). The result is this:

Note that this code is not tested nor intended to work on other similar keyboards (G13/G19/etc.) so there might be issues on them.

Only thing remaining now is iron out some small issues on the code and the G15 support will be there on the next nullDC version (so the actual release will take some time). :)
