Does not work with osu!lazer
I am aware there has already been an issue created, but since that was back in 2019 I decided to create another, tried both x64 and x86 loaders, but neither work. This will soon be a huge issue since osu! will move to using osu!lazer as the main client which will make this program (and using touchpads for osu) practically useless
Ah I don't actively play osu! anymore so I haven't been keeping up to date on development, but I will try to fix this. Looks like fundamentally it still uses OpenTK and the raw input APIs so I imagine (read: hope) there isn't too much work to do. I am busy with real life stuff this month though so it will probably be a while until I can get around to this.
Okay, so it turns out this is a rabbit hole of WTF, so here goes my findings:
- osu!lazer is now using SDL2 as the default backend instead of osuTK (that's bad)
- it seems that despite using SDL, if you have "raw input" checked, it still uses the osuTK mouse input handler (https://github.com/ppy/osu-framework/blob/b97c26a684dc8ded5a349d24f8664a4f4b8c42a4/osu.Framework/Platform/DesktopGameHost.cs#L133, that's good)
- however, osuTK uses its own SDL2 backend instead of the Windows backend if it detects that SDL2 is in use (https://github.com/ppy/osuTK/blob/af2001898abd6eed7cacf5f82e830eab931b3d90/src/osuTK/Platform/Factory.cs#L54, that's bad)
- there's a flag to force the game to run on osuTK (https://github.com/ppy/osu/blob/1a200148e5c4fac46bdcd1daa28589db12169395/osu.Desktop/Program.cs#L25, that's good)
- the flag doesn't seem to work for selecting the osuTK input backend, and the SDL2 backend does not actually use raw input but rather WM_MOUSEMOVE messages (https://github.com/ppy/osuTK/blob/af2001898abd6eed7cacf5f82e830eab931b3d90/src/osuTK/Platform/SDL2/Sdl2InputDriver.cs#L94, that's bad)

Most likely, unless osu! starts supporting raw input for real instead of faking it on top of WM_MOUSEMOVE, AbsoluteTouchEx will not work without significant changes.
