   Converting Direct Input to ASCII
  hello all.I understand that directx mapping is different. Keys are mapped from 0 to 255 when key 0 is escape key. What I don't understand is that how can I convert, for example DIK_A key to simple 'a' ASCII value. Can somebody help me?Thanks in advance   
  Did you try the code in  this article?   ;Quote:Original post by SiCraneDid you try the code in  this article?eh [smile] I didn't notice that. thank you.   ;  Note that using DInput won't work for special character sequences, such as these.  For proper international support you're best using Windows messages, and using DInput for non-text input (jump, move, shoot, weapon change, gas, brake, etc..)   ;Quote:Original post by NamethatnobodyelsetookNote that using DInput won't work for special character sequences, such as these.

DInput is designed to step aside gracefully when you're doing text entry. Don't shoehorn it into handling tasks it wasn't meant for.
