I've had the mouse for a month and for the most part all is fine, but I have tons of buttons that I'm unable to use in the games I play. Most games recognize 1 thru 5 including up/down wheel mouse, to me that's 7. Again in general fine, some, (like FEAR2) do not recognize anything above 1-3 and the U/D wheel mouse.

I tried the drag and drop in the LGS 8.83 but no joy, the software registers the D&D but not the game. I've read something about making a mouse button "Generic" but don't understand and saw no info on how to do it. For the most part I have tons of buttons "I'm" unable to use which doesn't make sense.

Are there any members with Logitech gaming mice and gaming software that could help me figure out how to utilize the rest of the buttons on the g700s?


Lastly the Logitech site maybe went mental, I can log in and look around but not post there. My last post was 6/20/16, and didn't get in any trouble
 
Do you have the Logitech control panel software installed? And how do you have it setup?

PS-On occasion g700s is glitchy and goes alzheimer's disease and deletes button profiles you loaded onto it...at which point you can either remake profiles from scratch....or save them as files and reload them.
 
You could always map the buttons to various keyboard keys that you don't normally use in games. Things like [,], End, Home, etc.
That's what I do.

Click to expand...

This is how I do it. I do not like this method thou.
 
Thanks for the responses guys.

OK, I think I have it figured out, not sure if its what has been suggested or not, (not up on terms).

I opened the LGS, hovered over (G6) clicked on the arrow, clicked (assign new command) then at the top of the new window entered the key I wanted to use (P) then gave it a name (flashlight) and clicked OK then exited.

Opened the game's options menu and made flashlight "P", started the game and was able to use G6 as flashlight. Will this become flashlight in all my games or just current Half Life 2? I'll have to check that out later tonight. If anyone knows please leave the info, to save me checking all my games tonight. I should probably write this down for future reference.

Thanks again!
 
The mouse will always send that button as "P". You would have to configure each game to use "P" as the flashlight.
 
Sorry. I was checking comments on mice and didn't realize how little traffic is on this board (ie: the age of this topic).
 
No sweat Krispy, sorta figured it out over the last couple months. Half Life 2 has an update version, 2 episodes and 2 to 4 expansion games.
