should work with any keyboard. just a disclaimer though that wootomation is not in development since ages. we just finished a macro survey and are going through responses internally to figure out what to do in the future

by far the shittest software ive ever used. I created a macro and the macro got triggered by every key i pressed and the explorer opened itself 100t0imes. way to hard for unknowledged people to install and and too complicated to use

Any way to reduce delay on macros?

#

despite it being ā€œcheatingā€ every and all Fortnite pros use pickup macros, and on keyboards like the apex pro mini, you can get up to 4-500 inputs per second

#

where as on the wooting it’s like 80-100

Quick question. The macros are saved on the onboard memory or I need the wootomation running all the time?

radiant spire
#

You need wootomation open

#

Anybody know how I can make a macro work while also holding down another key? For example I'm trying to bind something to '3' and it works fine when not doing any other input but if I'm also holding any WASD ot move around in-game it doesn't work at all so I have to stop/stand still to use it which is pointless.

As a Linux user on Wayland with KDE, wootomation doesn't succesfully start up, using the AppImage.

wootomation is not recommended anymore. we recommend using AHK or alternatives on the OS of your choice

Dynamic Keystroke is a powerful feature where you can assign 4 different actions to a single key. So based on how far you press it down, it will register different actions and combinations.

i contacted 2 of the <@&490097707487330305> people but was ignored so far so ill try this chat and if its the wrong chat pls point me to the right chat

  1. i asked a few years ago about automatic game detection and automatic profile switching and was told its coming soon, so how do i enable that in wootility?
  2. id like to have a setting that limits my max forward speed in game but not affect the max sideways speed
    i found this setting http://puu.sh/KHUlN/ded7a8a4d2.png
    but i cant find how to apply that only to a single key instead of to all of them, how do i do that?
  3. for some reason my wootomation is not grabbing updates since december 21st 2023
    i must be doing something wrong since we were promissed stuff like the the option to endlessly loop a macro till the key is pressed again, so were can i manually download the update? or is there a new software rather than wootomation?
  4. some games change the rgb to fit the game and reflect certain game functions within the rgb, iirc wooting wanted to work on that and enable that for the keyboard too, so how do i enable that?
  5. there are aluminium cases for the crippled keyboad versions but i cant find an aluminium case for the wooting two he, so were can i buy that?

  1. If it should be coming soon, then you cannot enable it in Wootility yet šŸ˜…
  2. It's a global setting, you cannot change it for a single key

  4. Not sure about the RGB, but you should be able to use thirdparty RGB software that does this for you
  5. You need to look at thirdparty cases, I remember there was one a couple of years ago, but I'm not sure how it went, I recommend you search or ask in #šŸ”§ā”‚keyboard_modding

Thanks for the reply.

I want to be honest here, because this is frustrating for me as a long-term customer.

  1. Regarding WootHelp and support channels:
    According to #ā—ā”‚important , WootHelp is meant to help the community.
    That’s why I tagged WootHelp instead of using #1019755933959733258 , which is mainly user-to-user help.

I was specifically hoping for help from people who are knowledgeable and closely involved with the product.
If that is not the intended use, then the role description should be clarified.

  1. About ā€œcoming soonā€:
    I was told more than two years ago that automatic profile switching and game detection were coming soon.
    At this point, it’s hard to understand why these features still don’t exist.

  2. About Wootomation, macros, and automation:
    Learning that Wootomation was discontinued without a proper replacement is honestly disappointing.

Macros, automation, and application-based automatic profile switching are basic features for many users, both for productivity and general gaming.
For a premium keyboard, I expected long-term software support in this area.

  1. Why this matters to me:
    I recommended Wooting to friends in the past, and several of them bought keyboards based on that.
    Right now, I feel uncomfortable having done that, because important software features have not progressed for years.

I paid a premium price expecting a mature and evolving product.
Instead, it feels like key functionality has been left behind.

I’m not here to attack anyone.
I’m looking for clear answers:

  • Is advanced macro and automation development still planned?
  • Is automatic profile switching still on the roadmap?

Depending on that answer, I honestly have to reconsider whether Wooting is still the right product for me.

I would appreciate an honest response from staff.

Thanks for reading.

coral laurel
# keen yarrow Thanks for the reply. I want to be honest here, because this is frustrating for...

Advanced macro and automation development is being actively worked on, but it is very far from any public release. Basic macros, which cover the vast majority of use cases, has been available for a long time in the form of DKS. Our stance is that advanced or complex macros can be accomplished with readily available tools such as Auto Hot Key. There are two primary scenarios I'm aware of where this tool isn't appropriate:

  • Inability to install software of a host device, such as a work computer. For this, the emphasis is productivity macros for which DKS is well suited.
  • Intentionally using onboard keyboard macros instead of macro software to circumvent anti-cheat software detection.

If you have a use-case for a specific type of macro that is not possible with DKS and isn't specifically against the terms of service for the application you're trying to use it in, we are very much open to that suggestion and would be more likely to slot in the development of that feature request ahead of a broad implementation of complex onboard macros.

We have ideas and concepts for how to navigate the desires of users while avoiding the risk of our hardware being disallowed in esports competitions or tournaments. However, these are not on the verge of being implemented.

To give a concrete example, to this day there are misguided youtube content creators and redditors who spread a narrative that the Wooting keyboard is banned at Fortnite LANs. In reality, this was a single LAN event hosted many years ago that decided to restrict Wooting keyboards due to the Double Movement software. Software which has been discontinued for years and years after Epic games implemented their own version of it. Years have gone by since this had any relevance whatsoever, yet search the Discord for "fortnite lan" and you'll see it gets brought up with regularity.

What is on the verge of implementation is the automatic profile switching system. While the recently updated community based solution from Shay is a viable option, our implementation is in the final stages of alpha testing and is likely to come to the public beta in an upcoming update. I'm not on the development team so I can't speak to when exactly that will be, but it's not far.

keen yarrow
# coral laurel Advanced macro and automation development is being actively worked on, but it is...

Thanks for the detailed explanation, I appreciate the transparency.

It’s genuinely good to hear that software development is still ongoing and that these areas haven’t been abandoned. That does give me some renewed confidence, especially regarding automatic profile switching, which is important to me both for productivity and gaming workflows.

I’d like to clarify my use-case a bit, because I think it falls outside what DKS can currently do.

As far as I understand, DKS allows multiple actions based on press depth and release, which is useful for simple workflows.
However, I don’t see a way to define custom delays between actions (for example: action → wait X ms → action → wait X ms → etc.).

If this is possible with DKS and I’m missing it, I’d be grateful if someone could explain how.

One concrete example where this matters to me:

In a singleplayer game I play, I have an ability with a fixed cooldown of about 34 seconds.
Ideally, I’d like to start a macro at the beginning of a session that presses one key every 34 seconds automatically, until I stop it.

This is not about cheating.
It’s about reducing physical strain during long sessions and avoiding repetitive manual input.

DKS cannot cover this use-case, and AutoHotkey is not an option for me.

I deliberately avoid installing AutoHotkey at all, because I want to minimize any risk of it being detected in multiplayer games, even accidentally (for example if it is still running in the background, launched unintentionally, or flagged during scans).
I’m not fully familiar with how all detection systems work, so I prefer not to have such tools on my system in the first place.

This is why I’m concerned when the recommended solution is ā€œuse third-party toolsā€.

Companies like Logitech and Razer have supported looped macros with configurable delays in their official software for many years, and their devices are widely accepted in esports and tournaments.
From my perspective, this shows that it is possible to offer these features responsibly without causing bans.

I’m not asking for anything beyond what major competitors already provide.
I’m mainly hoping that Wooting can eventually reach a similar baseline for productivity and general gaming workflows.

One additional question, if possible:

I’ve heard ā€œcoming soonā€ regarding some of these features for quite a long time now, so I’d really appreciate a bit more clarity.

I understand that exact dates are difficult in software development, but is there any rough timeframe or priority level for things like:

  • Automatic application-based profile switching
  • Expanded onboard macro and automation features

Even a broad indication (for example: ā€œin active development this yearā€, ā€œplanned for a later major updateā€, or ā€œnot currently prioritizedā€) would be very helpful for setting realistic expectations.

If this type of macro is not planned, I’d appreciate honest clarification.
If it is planned, I’d be very interested in any rough direction or timeline.

Thanks again for engaging in the discussion.

# keen yarrow Thanks for the detailed explanation, I appreciate the transparency. It’s genuin...

app-based profile switching is in internal testing right now. The way we've decided to implement this is more integrated into the entire stack than the profile switchers made by the community, so there's a lot of weird quirks to iron out. I will not promise any particular date, but I can say it will be the major feature of the next major beta version, just as switch selector was the major feature for the last one.

Macros are currently in active development. It will definitely come later than profile switching, but we're not sure yet if it will be the following update or sometime down the line.

#

as for the macro use case you described, I'll pass it on to the rest of the team

shy lotus
#

since it sounds like this is a good tactic to use the ability every 34seconds i assume people modded it already

keen yarrow
# shy lotus if its a singleplayer game just mod it so it auto executes the ability?

I understand that modding can be an option in some cases, but that’s not something I or many other users can rely on in general.

Not all singleplayer games support mods properly, and in many cases modding can break updates, achievements, cloud saves, or overall stability.
In some games it’s simply not possible at all.

My main point is that I’m looking for a reliable, device-side solution that works consistently across different games and applications, without having to modify each individual title.

There are simply too many different games and environments to reasonably depend on per-game workarounds.

That’s exactly why onboard macro and automation features are valuable to me and many others in the community:
they provide a consistent, safe, and predictable workflow regardless of the game, launcher, or platform.

Especially for a premium keyboard, I’d expect this kind of functionality to be handled at the device/software level rather than through external tools or per-game modifications.

Thanks a lot for the detailed update, I really appreciate the transparency.

It’s great to hear that profile switching is already in internal testing and planned as a major feature for the next beta, and that macros are actively being worked on as well.

Thanks also for passing my use-case on to the team. I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to explain this and give some insight into the roadmap.

i wont lie... it sounds like you wanna use it in multiplayer games and just said singleplayer so it sounds not like cheating.

cant say that in the years i have had a wooting i ever wanted keyboard macros. (or macros in general) nor played a singleplayer game that required me to use an ability every 34seconds during the entire time i play (or anything remotely close to this)

With that said i just wanted to throw in a solution for in the meantime but if it doesnt work for you then thats that

radiant spire
#

Reducing physical strain if it's part of the game is cheating btw. Everybody else not using macros for it gets a disadvantage

keen yarrow
# shy lotus i wont lie... it sounds like you wanna use it in multiplayer games and just said...

I’d like to clarify something here, because I don’t think it’s fair to assume intent.

My use-case is genuinely about singleplayer and long-term comfort, and I’ve been very open about that.
Suggesting that I’m trying to disguise cheating isn’t accurate and isn’t helpful to the discussion.

More importantly, whether something can technically also be used in multiplayer is not the main point.
Major manufacturers like Logitech and Razer have offered similar macro functionality for years, and their devices are widely accepted in competitive environments.

That shows it is possible to implement these features responsibly.

Also, macros are not only about ā€œwanting an advantageā€.
For many users, including people with physical limitations, automation can be an important accessibility feature.

Even for users without disabilities, reducing repetitive strain is a valid use-case.

So my intention here is not to gain an unfair advantage, but to advocate for functionality that many users rely on for productivity, comfort, and accessibility.

keen yarrow
# radiant spire Reducing physical strain if it's part of the game is cheating btw. Everybody els...

I don’t agree with that.

Reducing physical strain is not automatically ā€œcheatingā€.
For many people, automation and macros are accessibility and ergonomics features, not a way to gain an unfair advantage.

There are users with physical limitations, repetitive strain injuries, or other conditions who rely on these features to play at all.
Calling that ā€œcheatingā€ would exclude a lot of people unnecessarily.

Even for users without disabilities, reducing repetitive strain is a valid health-related concern.

On top of that, major manufacturers like Logitech and Razer have offered similar macro functionality for years, and it is widely accepted in competitive environments.

So this isn’t about gaining an unfair advantage, but about accessibility, comfort, and sustainable long-term use.

radiant spire
#

Hey, don't worry, I absolutely do not care if you cheat. But making things easier for some people can always be considered cheating by people that don't use that.

shy lotus
# keen yarrow I’d like to clarify something here, because I don’t think it’s fair to assume in...

i said "it sounds like" because what i already said and the fact this is basically like someone saying "i have this white powder..." and at some point says "but its not about drugs i swear". the general non specificity leads to it sounding somewhat vague and given the surrounding discussions of macros in a lot of online games being against the TOS/EULA it just sounds vague for the sake of not directly saying you want to break said TOS/EULA.

I never said you are talking about multiplayer games nor that you are not intending it to be for long term comfort or such.

Either way as previously stated if my sugestion of mods doesnt work for you thats fine and where I will leave it.

I also think it's weird that there isn't any macro support for this keyboard when every other brand is allowed to have them. Even, the Chinese copycats have them. Is Wooting just not a brand friendly company?

shrewd scarab
#

Sorry but what

#

Wooting doesn't have them natively. Yes. But there's nothing stopping you from using other apps and solutions.

#

Ps: macros are not wildy accepted by the competitive environments. Not enforcing and eula are two very different things. But never accepted.

Hey guys, I made a macro in Wootomation but I can't seem to figure out how to apply it to my keyboard? Does it apply automatically or do I need to adjust some setting somewhere?

lucid dagger
#

the reason why some people (not you, just explaining the context) want it on wooting and is unwilling to use 3rd party apps, is because they think that hiding macros under the wooting software will allow them to bypass anticheats on multiplayer games for macros, which is still false

But it is the point, premium keyboard company that doesn't have software\hardware macro is a shame compared to even much cheaper or bigger companies like Logitech. Since the Wooting cover is that "macros are not for eSports" and that if there are macros = keyboards will be banned, but other more popular brands (the same Logitech) have macros and the keyboards themselves are used in the pro scene and are in no way banned (the keyboard, not the macros).

#

I totally agree with @keen yarrow that macros should be there. It doesn't matter who uses them or how - thats up to the consumer. The key point is that literally every keyboard out there, from cheap ones to premium, knockoffs, whatever, has macro support, but Wooting doesn't, and that's just embarrassing in my opinion. Plus, not everyone wants to install software like AHK, mess with code - even if it's super basic. People just want standard macros like on competitors and any other keyboard!

I’d like to address a few recurring points in this thread in one place, because a lot of the discussion is starting to go in circles.

First: This is not about trying to gain an unfair advantage.
My use-case is about comfort, long-term ergonomics, and productivity. That’s it.
I’ve been consistent about that from the start.

Second: Whether something could theoretically also be used in multiplayer is not the main issue.
Major manufacturers like Logitech and Razer have offered macro functionality for many years, and their keyboards are widely used in competitive environments.
What gets restricted are macros in certain contexts, not the hardware itself.
So the idea that having macro support automatically makes a keyboard ā€œban-riskyā€ doesn’t really match how things work in practice.

Third: About third-party tools.
Yes, technically you can use things like AutoHotkey with any keyboard.
But many users (including myself) prefer not to rely on external tools, for stability, security, and compatibility reasons.
That’s why onboard/software-level solutions are valuable.

Fourth: About ā€œjust mod the gameā€.
That’s not a general solution.
Not all games support mods, and relying on per-game workarounds doesn’t scale.
Device-side functionality is exactly meant to avoid that.

For those who asked about the specific example:
The game is Sacred, and it’s a standard cooldown-based buff, similar to mechanics that exist in many RPGs.

Fifth: About expectations.
When I bought my Wooting keyboard, macro functionality existed and further development was communicated.
So this is not about ā€œnot doing researchā€, it’s about features being reduced or deprioritized later.

What I’m ultimately asking for is very simple:
Reaching the baseline functionality that almost every other gaming keyboard provides today, including much cheaper and even knockoff models, while Wooting positions itself as a premium brand.

I’m glad to see that profile switching and macros are being worked on, and I appreciate the transparency from the team on that.
My intention here is to give constructive feedback and represent concerns that clearly many users share in this thread.

If anything, this discussion shows that there is real interest in these features.

Thanks to everyone who has engaged constructively.

You've been using wootomation before, I don't see where using AHK would be any different

vital halo

#

yea i would agree that wooting should try to do their own macros

#

even though it would not be onboard/hardware and will be "third party" in terms of needing a background service, which is not actually a bad thing cos games can detect it and just ban the cheaters instead of having to deal all X keyboard users

#

its still worth it cos the most legit macros is autohotkey, and its kinda difficult to pick up

#

and other easier one kinda have fakes that might be viruses

#

my point is that with autohotkey existing, which is legit just a more polished version of if wooting made macros, its not really that much of a really urgent pain point, because if u really need macros, learning ahk is just worth it anyways
(btw their community is great, and would help if you just asked)

If you're this dedicated to doing this, why not just go with something still supported like AutoHotKey then

ocean path
#

can't will get banned probably, but also i think it's insane that modern games don't have a buffer on run release

I don't get it some please help!

shy lotus
wise spear
#

I meant just this

#

sorry

wise spear
shy lotus
#

the only thing i can imagine is you are pressing other keys as well while you want to execute the macro

#

we also deprecated wootomation in favor of just using AHK or MacroGamer for example as they are more refined macro tools already for windows users

wise spear
shy lotus
#

a macro scripting tool

wise spear
#

Would you say its like the apex pro macros for the MacroGamer or AHK?

shy lotus
#

ahk is the most advanced macro tooling you can get on windows

#

macrogamer is similar to what a lot of gaming keyboard brands offer

wise spear
#

auto hot keys?

shy lotus
#

yes

#

and yes most AI bots can help you make simple macros

wise spear
#

Do you have the site for MacroGamer as well perchance?

#

and also thank you so much for helping me out

shy lotus
#

as the website mentions macrogamer has a record function so no scripting at all

wise spear
#

Which one do I download for the MacroGamer?

shy lotus
#

the one you want

#

AHK is ultimate flexibility and allows you to do anything you want
MacroGamer is a record (maybe modify) and playback tool

#

if the whole record and playback is enough for you macrogamer. if you need more like loops and loops with conditions like a pixel color changing or a window title changing or such you need AHK

wise spear
#

I need it for picking stuff up in games

shy lotus
#

i mean try the macro software of your keyboard first, if it has something like our Wooting DKS you can also easily do that as it can let you press a key 4 times per key press

#

and only if those options dont work for you maybe try macrogamer

wise spear
shy lotus
#

it can also be the game youre trying to play blocks software macros because they are against the games rules

#

and thats why wootomation doesnt work

wise spear
shy lotus
#

like i said if the first try options dont work just try macrogamer

wise spear
#

For the MacroGamer, it says I can't reach the site

shy lotus
#

great it was working a few minutes ago. idk why its dead now

wise spear
#

And also, when I see downloads it just shows me the Readslick PDF site

#

and I don't think thats the real site of the macro so.

I know how to REBIND a key, sure, making one key do the function of another.
