WW Progression Key Shortcut Doesn't Work (Bug)

  Ok so where do I start...
  
  The orange error at the top is a different thing. I would ignore that. The issue is, the animation skipping key will no longer work for me. 
  Tried changing keys, reinstalling, trying defaults, reinstalling WW... nothing.
  
  I'm from an older TS4 version with 6K mods and it always worked fine for years. Then somewhere 2 months ago I updated WW and it stoped working (also switched from W10 to W11, maybe that has something to do).
  
  It's like the only thing that isn't working. Everything else is. Anyone knows how to fix this?

I'm surprised there is even an option to customize it, the feature is disabled.  Apparently an issue caused by an update to Windows?  Turbo is trying to fix it, but for now there is no hotkey to skip to the next animation.

Original post in his Discord on the feature, dated 12/12/2024:

"So beyond the 'Sex Progression Key Shortcut' to progress sex animations with a keyboard key press previously already not working for all Windows users, it might soon not work for any Windows user. It appears that a recent Windows update includes changes that broke existing solutions for detecting key presses using the only available solution I have. The change in Windows was probably done for good reasons but that most likely means that this functionality will be gone from WickedWhims for a while. I will be investigating new ways to detect key presses which hopefully will work for Mac users too or the extra effort might not be worth it."

His last post on his Patreon about progress for restoring it, dated 04/16/2026:

 

"New Sex Command: ww.progress_sex
 

Remember when the sex progressing keyboard shortcut broke? Yeah.. I still don't have a good solution for that, but I was asked to add this command. Using external applications, like AutoHotkey, you can run this command in the game with a press of a button and it will attempt to progress the sex to the next animation."

The above may be the only way to bring something like it back.
