new mouse, no more zoom function

Post by **Kammesennin** » Wed Jun 22, 2005 7:12 pm

I bought a new 8-button mouse from Nexxtech and in games MOUSE3 (clicking in the mousewheel) is not recognized at all. I could easily use another button because others are recognized, but i just want to know if this is fixable because i'm most comfortable using MOUSE3 as my zoom button in q3.

Got mouse drivers/mouse ware? Try disabling whatever function mouse3 is set to in Windows. Sometimes it conflicts with games and won't work. For Logitech I had to set mine to a function called "Middle Mouse" which still does the basic scrolling function in Explorer.

i've probably been playing fps a hell of a lot longer than u have and am probably better at it anyway, especially q3. just because i have a certain function bound to a certain key doesn't mean i can't play well... and in any case how the hell would the zoom being set on my mouse affect anything?
