19-06-02 README.txt About GoVictor --------------------------------------------------------------------------- GoVictor is a channel changer for Roger Wilco . It operates in the background, watching for hotkeys associated with predefined RW channels. GoVictor is an open source application released under the GNU General Public Licence. The current release is BETA, but all basic features are coded and it should be quite usable. Please report any bugs or feature requests to . Features --------------------------------------------------------------------------- GoVictor is similar to the popular TeamWilco program: * operates in the background, even while a game is running * watches for user-defined hotkeys to change Roger Wilco channels * low-profile icon on the system tray * channel and station support * plays sound cues * adjusts Roger Wilco settings via hotkeys (volume, mike gain, etc) There are some important differences relative to TeamWilco as well: * metakeys can be assigned on a per-channel basis * metakeys can be combined * metakeys are selective (ctrl will not trigger on ctrl+alt, etc) * hotkeys can optionally be "swallowed" * up to 256 channels * up to 256 groups (a generalization of the 'station' concept) * more complete station support via groups * easy switching between multiple channel/group configurations * optional suspend hotkey which when combined with hotkey swallowing allows GoVictor to peacefully share keys with other applications. * no GUI configuration * open source (GPL) News --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19-06-02 GoVictor 0.8 beta released. Added volume and gain adjustment, "nuke RW" function, rw_command/rw_options options in channel set configuration, sound cues, and hotkey export. More code and .ini cleanup as well. 07-05-02 GoVictor 0.7 beta released. Added suspend hotkey feature and changed the option keyword "scan" to "hotkey" in the channel set (.ini) files. 06-05-02 GoVictor 0.6 alpha is out. Fixed the keyboard hook code (it is now in a separate DLL as it should be) so it works under NT/XP. Added support for multiple channelsets that can be switched on-the-fly. Session management implemented. 05-05-02 GoVictor 0.5 alpha released. The patch fixes cpu hogging in the idle loop and problems launching RW Mk.1c. A bug in the keyboard hook under Windows NT/XP has been found, but is not yet fixed. 05-05-02 GoVictor 0.4 alpha publically released. The source code is a bit of a mess, and a general code cleanup will be the focus of the next release (in addition to any bug fixes).
