mouse button 2 cross com not working


Recommended Posts

Well, the title says it all, i've googled it and found what i thought would be the solution;

you change an xml file in the settings Graw folder from this:

<button id="hud_down" binding="mouse wheel down" device="mouse" group="misc"/>

To this:

<button id="hud_select" binding="2"device="mouse" group="interface"/>

Unfortunately this didn't work at all, my mouse button 2 won't execute the cross com but scrolling works etc. I've tried changing the key assignments and that doesn't work.

So, is it a mouse driver isssue or a bug?

Does anyone know of a way to fix this as it makes executing commands take longer.

I'm running Vista 32 bit

Thanks, my apologies if i've completely overseen something obvious

Hi All, another newbee here and I'm having EXACTLY the same problem with GRAW. I was sent the game with my new PC, Vista 32 bit 4GB Ram I've managed to play the first mission until the helicopter extraction but know I'm going to struggle later in the game as, like the guy below, I'm having exactly the same problem with mouse button two. When you configure it in the menu it recognizes it as MB2 yet in the game on the cross com the wheel moves the options up and down yet you cannot select a command by pressing the wheel down to select that option, so follow etc are redundant. The only way I can move a soldier is via the MAP view

Any idea's on why this is happening? Worryingly the thread below doesn't appear to have been replied too so I hope we've not drew a blank as I quite enjoyed the 1st mission and would like to play again. I'm using a logitech G5 but even configuring the 4th button to do something else doesn't work, any ideas anybody?

Cheers

Cuzer

Same problem here. Anyone ?

Alright I MIGHT have solved this problem. I have a Microsoft basic optical mouse, using the Microsoft Intellipoint software.

Now I have my middle scroll button set as a double-click. To get it to work normally in GRAW, what you need to do is open up your Intellipoint software, and go to 'enable program specific settings'.

Then use it to find the GRAW exe, and change the middle-button to 'middle click'. GRAW will now recognise the scroll as a seperate button.
