Running macro in another program

[Logan]

Okay first off all I want to do is record a macro to move my mouse along a preset path. So I recorded my macro and set my hotkeys and all that, and if I am in the macro application window it works fine, if I am in something like a google tab it works fine. However, when I open a different application, such as a game, when I run the macro the mouse does not move in the application, it's like if I click out of the game and move my mouse, how do I get the macro to run by moving the mouse and also staying in the game I am running?

Some apps and games will never work with this type of macro software. Mini Mouse Macro needs to interact with Windows (the .NET framework) to do things like play keys, clicks, and mouse movements back. Some games and apps (not all games but some) don't interact with Windows (and vice-versa) to allow calls to the .NET framework. Mini Mouse Macro needs this interaction to work.
