Certain mouse buttons don't work

Post by Captain Fubar »

So currently I have a bunch of keys set to my mouse (Logitech g502) mouse 4and 5 are used for comms while my scroll wheel which can go left and right are used to go crouch and prone. Now as of this update the left and right function of my scroll wheel doesn't work for this game. If I were to press it either way sideways nothing were to happen. I messed around with my mouse program but it doesn't work. I doubt I found a fix but some help would be appreciated.

Mumble settings menu is broken at the moment. Look for my other thread, use old mumble to set keys.

Ingame key bindings issues are a part of BF2 engine, can't fix it.
Worst case you can try editing "Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles\(Profile number)\controls.con", figure out the format. I do not recommend it.

I got the same problem now with my Logitech G5 mouse. All PR sees now are LMB and RMB only.

Only my experience, not garantueed to work for you, however: I have a generic external mouse with side buttons 3 and 4, which I use for local and squad chat. Suddenly they stopped working. It took me some time, but I managed to repair it followingly.

Go to device manager (right-click on My Computer or via control panels), open the mouse part and there might be two HID devices. Try unplugging your mouse, disabling the HID device left and then plugging your mouse back. There was some conflict between those two.

Important: On the other hand it seems that BF2 wont launch without any mouse device (at least on my laptop) connected to the computer, so if you were to launch the game without any external mouse, you need to reactivate the HID device first.
