  • Set your keys in CF to those buttons..? :P

    what? Let me elaborate on this thread. you can't bind the side mouse buttons ingame to movement keys and we have a new player who uses the side buttons on his mx518 to strafe left and right in source so he needs to do it in crossfire.

    Setpoint, the logitech program for mouse customization allows you to bind your side mouse buttons to keys so he can set them to "A" and "D" so he can in turn use the side mouse buttons as "A" and "D", the strafe buttons ingame, allowing him to strafe with his side buttons. in most fps's this works, not in crossfire, anyone have any suggestions/ideas?

    [23:08] Bloodyfire/Kayne: you wont be able to bind them as in left button, right button and r will all mean reload
    [23:08] Bloodyfire/Kayne: but you can make it so left button will reload and r does nothing
    [23:08] Bloodyfire/Kayne: :S
    [23:09] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: its not left and right button
    [23:09] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: its the side buttons on the 518
    [23:10] Bloodyfire/Kayne: yea i know
    [23:10] Bloodyfire/Kayne: just didnt know what to call them
    [23:10] Bloodyfire/Kayne: like left side button, right side button, blue side button, red side button, whatever
    [23:11] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: yea
    [23:11] Bloodyfire/Kayne: you cant make it so r, blue and red will all reload
    [23:11] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: how can i make the strafe left and strafe right in crossfire
    [23:11] Bloodyfire/Kayne: you can only pick one
    [23:11] Bloodyfire/Kayne: well
    [23:11] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: blue will strafe left
    [23:11] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: and red will strafe right
    [23:11] Bloodyfire/Kayne: change the a key in cf to one of the buttons
    [23:11] Bloodyfire/Kayne: should work
    [23:11] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: it didnt pick them up
    [23:11] Bloodyfire/Kayne: your mouse is too advanced for cf?
    [23:11] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: do you have setpoint
    [23:12] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: its not my mouse
    [23:12] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: its a teamates

    [23:12] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: same here
    [23:12] Bloodyfire/Kayne: yea, its just his mouse is too good for cf
    [23:13] Bloodyfire/Kayne: cuz if you do it through setpoints, it wont work
    [23:13] Bloodyfire/Kayne: cuz xtrap blocks all stuff like that
    [23:13] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: ok
    [23:13] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: so uninstall setpoint?
    [23:13] Bloodyfire/Kayne: just like with one click holds down for a 3 shot burst or if you push q once on your keyboard it switches twice
    [23:13] Bloodyfire/Kayne: cant use stuff like that cuz of xtrap
    [23:13] Bloodyfire/Kayne: and idk
    [23:13] Bloodyfire/Kayne: did it come with his mouse?
    [23:13] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: no
    [23:14] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: we installed it
    [23:14] Bloodyfire/Kayne: then yea
    [23:14] Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ doop Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ: to bind to a key

    Yea, I misunderstood at first but talked about it with doop on xfire. Xtrap is stupid and blocks these sort of things with both keyboards and mouses. If you want to be able to use those buttons for things in-game, you have to set them to your direct in-game key.

    This game still has potential :D
  • The side butttons don't even work in CF with my death Ad.
  • Very sad, Z8Games has to upgrade their game for specialized keyboards/mouses.
  • Does CF even support these bindings?

    I have MX518 as well, I only use side butttons for PTT in ventrilo, as for me they does nothing in CF.

    But, why exactly would you need these bindings anyway? CF probably has the easiest controls outta all games.., pretty straight forward.
  • have a mx518 too, he strafes with the left,right keys on left side? that would feel wierd. still aint use to grip of this mouse
  • Amazing mouse is amazing i got 1 too only side for PTT though
  • Doop Sup?

    wanna know how add me on XFire dgtexas
