Accessing Minecraft via virtual key input

Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on a Minecraft Admin Tool and I'm experiencing problems to get it work with Forge. The project is build with C# (.NET 3.5) and for the key inputs the SendsKey API is used.

The problem is that even if the virtual key input is send to Minecraft, Minecraft does not react to it (e.g. sending the Key {ESCAPE} does not open the menu). This only happens when Forge is installed, so my question is: Are there any methods in Forge affecting the interaction with the Minecraft window? And how to possibly bypass the problem?

Thanks,

There should be nothing that effects the keyboard inpput, just make sure you're passing it to the correct window/applet.

I think my problem is that the Minecraft window is not brought to front properly because the focus isn't even set on the window. (Although using the SetForegroundWindow and the SetFocus API of the user32.dll)
