    ROCCAT Tyon - Macro Software Doesn't Allow You To Map A Mouse Button To A Macro Key

    I was also wondering if there was a way I could configure the playback so it either repeats while the button is being held or it starts looping when the button is pressed and stops looping when the button is pressed again. I can't seem to find that functionality either. :( Jan

    ROCCAT Tyon - Macro Software Doesn't Allow You To Map A Mouse Button To A Macro Key

    Anyone here have a ROCCAT mouse and are familiar with their software. I am trying to assign a mouse click (right mouse button) to a macro button.

    Why Do Most Gaming Mice Programs Use Macros To Assign Keys To A Mouse Button?

    I have purchased and used several gaming mice recently and I have noticed that hardly any software for these mice provide the ability to map a keyboard key to a mouse button WITHOUT using a macro. If you use a macro then it might look something like this: Keydown F1 Delay 15ms Keyup F1 The...

    Video Card For Best Picture Quality Not Necessarily Overclocking?

    Hello All! I am looking to get a new video card for my PC and I have noticed that ratings/specs generally focus on the clock speed(s) which I assume gives you more frame rates per second. I also assume that the kind of people that want fast video cards are gamers who don't want their games to...

    Monitor Max Resolution Using DVI Dual Link Cable Is Less Than HDMI

    I just checked the DVI cable description and noticed that it say max 1920 x 1080. :( I didn't even notice that when I bought it. :( I should have been more observant when buying the cable! I hope there are DVI cables that support higher resolutions. Why did I switch? Just curious I guess...
