GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn by Skuny

A lightweight Windows keyboard sequence tool designed for GameLoop and other Android emulators.

Press one trigger key and automatically send a configurable sequence of keyboard keys with an adjustable delay between each key.

---

Features

• F trigger key
• Default sequence: K → L → ; → ' → [ → ]
• Adjustable delay between keys
• Add, remove, and reorder output keys
• Save settings automatically
• Settings persist between launches
• GameLoop/emulator focus detection
• F is intercepted only while the target emulator is focused
• F behaves normally when using other applications
• ARM / DISARM control
• F12 emergency disarm
• Always-on-top option
• Dark tactical-style interface
• Windows EXE build supported
• Inno Setup installer supported

---

How It Works

When the application is armed and GameLoop is focused:

F pressed
   ↓
K
   ↓
L
   ↓
;
   ↓
'
   ↓
[
   ↓
]

The default output sequence is:

K → L → ; → ' → [ → ]

The delay between each output key can be changed in the application.

The default delay is:

0.05 seconds

or:

50 milliseconds

---

Important Safety Feature

The application does not permanently block the F key.

When Require GameLoop focus is enabled:

GameLoop focused
        ↓
F activates the sequence

Chrome / Discord / ChatGPT / Windows
        ↓
F behaves normally

This prevents the sequence from activating while you are using another application.

---

Emergency Disarm

Press:

F12

at any time to immediately disarm the application.

This stops the active sequence and removes the F-key hook.

---

Installation

Option 1 — Installer

Download the latest installer from the project's GitHub Releases page.

Run:

GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn Setup.exe

Follow the installation wizard.

The installer creates Start Menu shortcuts and can optionally create a desktop shortcut.

---

Option 2 — Run From Source

Requirements

• Windows
• Python 3
• keyboard
• psutil

Install the required Python packages:

py -m pip install keyboard psutil

Then run:

py src\skr.py

---

Using the Application

1. Start GameLoop

Launch GameLoop and open your desired Android game.

2. Start Smartkeys

Launch:

GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn.exe

3. Configure the sequence

The default sequence is:

01     K
02     L
03     ;
04     '
05     [
06     ]

You can:

• Add keys
• Remove keys
• Move keys up
• Move keys down

4. Set the delay

For example:

0.05

means 50 milliseconds between output keys.

5. Press SAVE

Your configuration is stored locally and will be restored the next time the application starts.

6. Press ARM

The application becomes active.

When GameLoop is focused, the status changes to:

ARMED • READY

Press:

F

to start the sequence.

---

Configuration

The application stores its configuration in:

%APPDATA%\GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn\gameloop_keyboard_mapper.json

A typical default configuration looks like:

{
    "keys": [
        "k",
        "l",
        ";",
        "'",
        "[",
        "]"
    ],
    "delay": 0.05,
    "always_on_top": false,
    "require_focus": true
}

Configuration Options

keys

The keyboard sequence that will be sent.

Default:

"keys": [
    "k",
    "l",
    ";",
    "'",
    "[",
    "]"
]

This produces:

K → L → ; → ' → [ → ]

delay

Delay between output keys in seconds.

Example:

"delay": 0.05

always_on_top

Controls whether the application stays above other windows.

"always_on_top": false

require_focus

Controls whether GameLoop must be focused before the F trigger is active.

Recommended:

"require_focus": true

---

GameLoop Detection

The application checks the foreground Windows application and recognizes common GameLoop/emulator process names and window-title keywords.

Examples include:

gameloopemulator.exe
androidemulator.exe
aow_exe.exe
qmemulatorservice.exe
gameloop.exe
emulator.exe

It also recognizes relevant emulator and game window titles.

The focus requirement can be disabled from the application settings if desired.

---

Building the EXE

The project can be packaged into a standalone Windows executable using PyInstaller.

Install PyInstaller:

py -m pip install pyinstaller

From the project directory, build the EXE with:

py -m PyInstaller --noconfirm --clean --onefile --windowed --icon "assets\smartkeys.ico" --name "GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn" src\skr.py

The resulting executable will be created in:

dist\

The executable is:

GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn.exe

---

Building the Installer

The project uses Inno Setup to create the Windows installer.

The installer script is:

GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn.iss

The installer packages:

GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn.exe

and creates the Start Menu and optional desktop shortcuts.

The final installer is:

GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn Setup.exe

---

Troubleshooting

F does nothing

Check:

1. The application is ARMED.
2. GameLoop is the focused window.
3. Require GameLoop focus is enabled if you want focus protection.
4. The output sequence contains at least one key.
5. Try pressing F12 and then ARM again.

---

F works in another application

Make sure:

Require GameLoop focus

is enabled.

When enabled, the F hook is installed only while the recognized GameLoop/emulator window is focused.

---

The application does not start

If running from source, make sure the required modules are installed:

py -m pip install keyboard psutil

Then try:

py src\skr.py

---

Emergency stop

Press:

F12

The application should change to:

DISARMED

---

Source Code

The main application source is:

src/skr.py

The application is written in Python using:

• Tkinter
• ctypes
• keyboard
• psutil

---

Final Note

Hi everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to read all of this.

I was honestly at my breaking point when I was trying to fix the keymaps in the GameLoop CODM Beta versions 1.0.56 and 1.0.57. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out why things weren't working properly, and I got pretty frustrated.

I started digging deeper into how everything worked. I reverse-engineered parts of config.db, looked into gameloopemulator.exe, ADB, and various Android sub-files, and used Ghidra to inspect and understand the data and structures I was dealing with.

Just when I was about to give up, the idea came to me to build a tool that could handle the key sequences myself.

That eventually became GameLoop Smartkeys Reborn.

This is Version 1.0, so it is intentionally simple. There is no complicated preset system or massive collection of pre-made configurations. You can adjust the key sequence yourself depending on your keymap and the game mode you're using.

The hierarchy is simple: the buttons at the top run first, followed by the buttons underneath them. You can add, remove, and reorder them however you want.

I'm also including my BR.txt keymap as a reference for my CODM Battle Royale 3rd-person setup.

I don't work for GameLoop, Tencent, or TAC. I'm just a small creator trying to build something useful for the community, just like many of you.

I hope I can get some feedback, suggestions, and support from the community as the project develops.

I also hope GameLoop/TAC can eventually bring the emulator back to its former stability and continue improving it. While working on this project, I came across a lot of broken, inconsistent, or messy parts of the emulator, and I really hope the developers continue improving them.

Most importantly, I hope this project can remain useful for open GameLoop use and that the community can continue building and experimenting with tools like this.

Have a great day, everyone.
