[WIP] PianoTomas – MIDI to AHK (with flats / sharps)

Hi everyone! :D :D :D

I’ve been playing around with the new Piano instrument in Guild Wars 2, and since it works differently from the older instruments (because of sharps/flats and octave behavior), I decided to build my own MIDI → AHK converter, focused specifically on the piano.


What does it do?

Converts .mid files directly into .ahk macros.
Supports sharps/flats (F1–F5)
Works well even with MIDI files that have multiple tracks[/list]
The goal was to make the piano more musical and less mechanical.

I need help testing!

I've already generated several .ahk files using this tool and they are working well for me in the game, however my computer isn't very good and my ping is very high. Also, I would really appreciate feedback from other players:

Does the timing feel right?
Do chords sound correct?
Any weird octave jumps or missing notes?

If you’re willing to test some of the .ahk files I generated (or want to test your own MIDI files), i've included a Google Drive list at the end with some songs I made using the program.

Current status

The converter is almost finished

I’m polishing details and edge cases

I’m considering making a full tutorial / release post if people are interested

If you have questions, want the program, or want me to convert a specific MIDI, feel free to contact me. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

- The step-by-step process for converting to .ahk is the same as for Music Box, up to Starbound.
- Instead of using MIDI in Starbound, use Aria (to make any final changes to the MIDI), and use Piano Tomas to convert directly to .ahk.

Just wanted to say this seems pretty cool - been waiting for more piano integration. Going to look into it!

(E eu ri quando vi Evidências e Pabllo nos vídeos do youtube)

Obrigado pelo feedback... Eu fiz o Executável do programa já, e tenho mais músicas feitas...
They added a new mod to Blish and included my music in it... I'm very satisfied (Maestro, the name of the mod).

Hey! So, I've been using Maestro since it came out, and while it works well for other instruments like the Harp, and even for Piano for the songs Aex put in there, for some reason basically none of your songs work!

They do not sound like they do in your videos, and even on the ones that do start out sounding okay, at some point they inevitably hit the "increase octave" key enough times that the piano goes into those higher "chord" octaves and it jambles up the whole thing. Hotkeys seem to be properly set up, with no modifier conflicts and as I said, other songs work well.

Do you have any clue what could be causing such a thing?
