Hello fellow site users!

Ever found yourself wishing you could pause a song to say something in chat, or simply stop yourself from having to fumble around in your taskbar trying to stop a script when something goes wrong? Today I bring you the solution. I decided to make a little program to make them less of an inconvenience to use. It's proven very useful for me, so I thought I would share it. Features include:
- GUI with nice big buttons to do things
- Alt-Tab and the song will still play in the background so you can browse Reddit/YouTube/whatever
- Play/pause with a simple hotkey
- ez importing, editing and deletion of songs
- Lots of bugs

So, after looking in the settings ini and changing the gw2-x64.exe to just gw2.exe as that is what I'm running. I'm not able to play any of the music. I wonder if key's are just not set up right for me, (I have them as Num1, num2, num3, etc in game).

It shows the progress bar but sadly no action from the client side.

Any ideas?

EDIT : I should also note that I'm not seeing the AHK icon in my notification area like I normally would when AHK is active.

Strange, the program sends numpad keystrokes so that wouldn't be the problem. It might be worth double checking your GW2 process name in the task manager.

I'm trying to use your application as well but it doesn't seem to work either any idea what might be the issue with it? I have also setup the keys in numpad and I have also imported a song from a website to play. It plays via the application ( I see the bar move) but nothing happens ingame..

Yeah, I'm still having the issue. Checked to ensure proper process was in the config.

This is a great utility. I added the ability to send a chat message while a song is playing.

The updated script can be found at: https://github.com/rolandoislas/MusicBox
