I just got a new system. Is there a way to program a gaming mouse in EQ ? If not, what software will allow me to do that ?
I use X-Mouse Button Control to add support for buttons 4 and 5. It's free: https://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/xmousebuttoncontrol.htm
Some gaming mouses can be programmed with the software it comes with to do keyboard presses or a combo of presses. As long as you are not programming it to do tasks while afk then you are fine.
Microsoft mouse and keyboard center will allow you to do limited stuff. I have the side button set to do down arrow (move backward), and the scroll wheel push to click cntl-d every 50 seconds to hit my forage macro.
Thank you for the good ideas. I did get two buttons set up inside EQ and I just haven't decided what to do with the rest just yet.
