As this is classed under Tools in the downloads
I will put forward my problem. Just downloaded
MafiaCon v1.2 which from times past I know will
work with version 1.3 of Mafia - however when
I start Mafia with MafiaCon I get this:
| Quote: | | Unable to inject MHook.dll |
The same thing happens if I start the game
and then Alt+Tab back and start MafiaCon.
ASM when you log in please could you help
with this.
Thanks

This site only has the 32-bit in the Downloads. If you're running a 64-bit machine I suspect that's why - here's the 64-bit version.

*Bump*
Has anyone found a fix for not being able to Alt+Tabbing out of Mafia when using MafiaCon by the way? It appears to 'freeze', switching to another window according to the Alt+Tab menu but not minimising Mafia..

Does your version already support the setwindowmode/setdisplaymode command? If so you could try executing set(window|display)mode 1 when it gets stuck. It switches the game from fullscreen to window mode which should recover the window. You can switch back to fullscreen later by executing set(window|display)mode 0.
Apart from that I also have a newer version lying around but I'm not currently sure if it fixes Alt+Tab. Testing is difficult as the game has trouble with fullscreen in general under Windows 10.  |

I had a problem with this recently because I had got 64 bit windows.
What fixed it was using the 64-bit fix Asa linked, but starting game.exe and alt-tabbing to start mafiacon. |

OK! my memory ain't what it used to be
but I vaguely remember you could add
weapons into the inventory apart from
the already 'bind Control+F2' ones for
example things like molotovs, mosin-nagant
etc.
I tried the giveweapon in the console but
for the life of me I cannot remember if
it is the actual name of a weapon you type
or if each weapon like vehicles have an id
number - Example: let's say I want to have
a Mosin-Nagant M1891/30 how would I spawn
this either in the console or instead of the Thompson
in the mafia.cfg file have this instead?
I sussed it out with the weapon cycling and
weapon slots

The giveweapon command supports autocompletion for the weapon parameter. To get a list of supported weapon strings, specify an empty string as weapon parameter (i.e. type in giveweapon_-1_1_ with _ being SPACE) and press TAB. |

After Windows 10 kept bombarding me
with UAC alerts and stopping me running
any apps and games the system shut down
and would not do a recovery so was forced
to do a complete reset of the o/s
Had to reinstall Mafia ---------again 
MafiaCon works inasmuch the fairlight
works - but I cannot get that damned
console to come up when pressing the
tilde key (the one below Esc)
I have everything added from MCon to
the game folder and even changed the
admin rights so that I can run the program.
Unless I have to reassign the button to bring
up the console I have no idea.

I think 1.2 already shipped with the setconsolekey command. Add
for example to autoexec.cfg to rebind the console key to Z as workaround. |

Maybe I am doing it wrong..hmm  I tried adding the command
setconsolekey z in the autoexec.cfg but when I tried it in game
it would not work - as I said I may have done it wrong and totally
misread what you suggested

Hm add the following lines to autoexec.cfg:
| Code: |
version
condump mafiacon.log
|
When you launch MafiaCon, it should create the file mafiacon.log in your Mafia installation directory. Please post its contents. |

OK, the two log readings are from the original MafCon 1.2 and I also tried the update files for 64bit both came up with nothing when pressing the tilde key
I have to admit I had not rebound the console key to z as you suggested earlier.

I tried a different keyboard in case it may have been
a problem with the tilde key on the one I
usually use, but no difference the console still didn't
show.

I checked the binaries and it looks like setconsolekey is available since the '64-bit' update.
One thing I forgot to ask: Are the ingame controls locked after pressing tilde (or whatever key you've bound the console to using setconsolekey)? If so, it suggests it's a rendering problem.
Anyway, I have an updated version of MafiaCon lying around here somewhere. Maybe it works better for you. |

pressing the key (whether tilde or whatever key was
used to bring up the console) made no changes I
could still use the movement controls for the game it
was almost as if the setconsolekey was not responding
- btw I explained earlier that the computer decided to
annoy me with UAC alerts even though I had turned
down these annoying disturbances.. as I said I was
forced to do a full reset of Win10 - before I had to do
this the console was working
When you can please link me up with the updated version
you have.
Thanks
EDIT: I turned up the UAC control to the recommended
and of course when starting MafiaCon was asked if I
wanted to let the process make changes - but when
the game was in session and I pressed the key for the
console; no alert came up.
