This download contains the core TouchBuddy program, the supporting DLLs, and the demo-profile.tbc and images. It also contains the following "bundled" profiles:
Brewber's Lomac SU-25T Profile
SytRep's Falcon Profile
WBK/SytRep's iL2/PF Profile
WBK's Lomac A-10 Profile
Zorlac's Lomac Profile
Magnum's Falcon Profile
Primarymans's Orbiter Profile (Updated)
Ruggbutt's Lomac F-15 Profile
(We are always looking for good profiles to bundle with future full releases, especially for games other than the ones listed above. Driving games seem to be using TouchBuddy, but as yet, I havent seen any fully featured profiles for driving game).
For more information, please see the sticky message in "Public Chat"
This is the updated build, which has hopefully fixed the slow running on several people's machines.

A quick fix version for those who dont want to download the core or full builds again. Unzip it into your existing TouchBuddy directory, and run it as normal.
**THIS FILE WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU ALREADY HAVE DOWNLOADED AND INSTALLED v1.3.0.9 OR HIGHER!!**
This one fixes a few items:
Quote:
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 18) - FIX: 8th June 2007
OK, I have learned a lesson. Never say that a bug is fixed..... just say you
*THINK* its fixed
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 17) - FIX: 8th June 2007
Hopefully fixed bug that keeps coming back to bite me when users create buttons with
"_" at the end of the button name, especially when these are used as
clone_source entities.
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 16) - FIX: 23rd February 2007
Fixed bug when processing tab select/deselect macros. It was a stupid bug, sorry!
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 16) - FIX: 22th February 2007
Clone buttons can have their own X/Y position information, or they can be left out
and the X/Y position of the clone_source button is used instead. This bug fix now
makes this second option actually work
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 15) - FIX: 28th January 2007
Fixed progress bar display when loading a profile that had a window marked as "on top".
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 15) - FIX: 28th January 2007
Removed timing loop/delay after profile has been loaded.
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 15) - FIX: 28th January 2007
Fixed problems when there was (example) a button called "test" and another button
called "test_1", "test_2", etc. (It will replace the "_" characters in the button
name with "-" ... dont ask, ok? )
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 14) - CHANGE: 20th January 2007
Change the "Data: OK/Stale/Offline messages on the Lomac Active Modules so they are only
displayed if the data is stale or offline.
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 14) - CHANGE: 20th January 2007
When a window is defined as "on top", TouchBuddy now makes sure it stays on top.
(Fix for External MFDs in Orbiter Space Sim that try to do "on top" over TouchBuddy when
cursor returns to Orbiter main game area).
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 14) - FIX: 19th January 2007
Fixed the broken default_start_tab option
#==- (v1.3.0 Rev. 13) - FIX: 15th January 2007
Did some work on the TeamSpeak module, fixed a few bugs that had been around for
a while.
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 13) - FIX: 15th January 2007
Fixed "touch" buttons with the repeat option enabled
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 12) - ADD: 14th January 2007
Added new option in touchbuddy.cfg to allow users to decide what priority
TouchBuddy should run at
# Set the process priority of TouchBuddy. This option can be set to:
# below_normal
# normal
# above_normal
# high
# (I *REALLY* do not recommend using the "below_normal" option in Local mode)
# NOTE: above_normal and below_normal are not supported under NT, Win95/98/ME
cpu_priority = normal
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 12) - FIX: 14th January 2007
Fixed incorrect outer compass and heading display in Lomac Active TEWS modules
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 11) - FIX: 13th January 2007
Fixed a rather over zealous debug routine that was still writing out to disk,
even though it was explicitly told not to. This particular misbehaving routine has
been taken round the back and shot, and replaced with a new routine that behaves now.
#==
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 10) - ADD: 12th January 2007
Added extra debug option in touchbuddy.cfg to help with active modules
** DONT ENABLE THIS unless you know what you are doing, and are happy with the large
performance drop you will get if you do enable it!!!!
module_debug = [0|1]
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 10) - FIX: 12th January 2007
Added several new options in touchbuddy.cfg in an attemopt to work out which option is
causing terribly slow running on a few users machine
#enable/disable the creation and use of hotkeys
enable_hotkeys = [0|1]
# enable/disable the use of the "iconify" window
enable_icon_window = [0|1]
# enable/disable the use of transparency and translucency on tabs
# set to 0 to disable
enable_transparent_tabs = = [0|1]
- (v1.3.0 Rev. 10) - FIX: 12th January 2007
Fixed crash problem in window paint routine when the client area is non-existent
(i.e resized so there is no client area, or entire window is minimized in client mode)

Toolkit/TouchBuddy Demo Video Creating a Simple Profile
- Creating a Simple Profile.
- Using the Simple Profile.
Using the Toolkit is easy. These 2 videos show you how to create a very simple profile, and then use it in Lockon - Modern Air Combat.
This Tutorial uses MS Paint to create a background image and images for 2 buttons. Creating the graphics takes about 5 minutes. Then you create a New Profile in the TouchBuddy Tookit, and add your graphics to it. It's that easy.

Toolkit/TouchBuddy Demo Video Lomac Active Modules
A short video about the soon to be released v1.3 , showing how to add active modules in the Toolkit to an existing profile. In this case, it is adding active TEWS and simple payload modules. Then right after that, the movie shows these modules in game.
Even though it is mentioned in the audio, I would just like to mention again that the update speed of the active modules is a lot slower than normal due to my PC being hammered (playing the game, running FRAPs, running TB and Snaggit to capture the TB window). Normally the updates are once every second or so (depending on the entries in the touchbuddy.cfg file).

These are some old TouchKit Drivers that seem to work even better than the new ones on several systems.
