Everything was fine yesterday and the mouse and keys are working fine elsewhere but after todays small update WoW is not recognising any keys other than the main two and the wheel. You may need to play about with your key numbers if your mouse is a different model, but I was able to replicate my normal set-up. Playing on a Mac with the latest OS update. You can also ad any modifier by clicking CMD, alt, shift or ctrl options. On my mouse (Cataclysm Edition) the buttons that are active are L,R,M,4,5,6,8,9,10,12 and 13.Ĭlick the button number on the list that you want to bind and select ‘Keyboard Shortcut’ from the pull-down menu. You can access 9-16 by clicking the right hand dot at the bottom of the list. Open Steermouse in the System Preferences panel.Ĭlick on the ‘device’ tab and then click device analyser it should find it as a WoW mouse.Īfter this click ‘buttons’ tab and note that there should be two tiers of buttons, 16 in total. For example, Execute is for me both the ‘5’ key and Button 9 on the mouse. To use Steermouse the abilities in game (aside from left, right click and middle mouse) will need to have a keybinding as well. The mouse even has a preloaded profile for GW2, and that didn’t help either.Depending on which model of WoW mouse you have it should show up. I did this very thing with my Logitech G500s as a last measure to try and get it to work.

This way, when I hit the mouse button, the game thinks I am pressing “Page up” so it opens the map.īeyond this, you will have to wait for your application software to be updated so it works with Guild Wars 2. Instead of trying to configure each game to remember the key binds I simply told the mouse software that those buttons are bound to “Page up,” “Page Down” and “Insert.” Then, I start the game of my choice, (Guild Wars 2 in this case) and bind the something like “map” to “Page up” in the keyboard section (not mouse). It has 3 side buttons which many games do not recognize as mouse keys. To do this, you need to access the mouse’s key binding application and bind the keys you want to use to keyboard keys. I actually use bartender for this purpose.Hello everyone, I was hoping to maybe get some insight on how I can resolve my mouse issue. However, if it doesn’t there is a trick to bypass this and just use generic settings. That should fix the the mouse binds in gw2 without needing to restart your pc.Įnjoy still using the mouse software, profiles, colors etc for other games and gw2!!!!Ĭurrently, Guild Wars 2 should detect the mouse buttons as actual mouse buttons (mouse3, mouse4 etc etc).
Now browse to the stellseries folder(usually C:\Program Files (x86)\SteelSeries\World of Warcraft Cataclysm MMO Gaming Mouse) and double click the WoWMHID2.exe. Open task manager find WoWMHID2.exe, right click and end task.

One way to fix this is by restarting your pc but of course who has the time 8D.
This normally borks the mouse software and the mouse binds will stop working. Now there will be times when gw2 may crash or a new build is out and the game restarts. For example if u bind open map to mouse button 10 hit apply then press mouse ten while in notepad you will get an ‘m’ or if you bind say open bags u should get a b. These are the keys the built in binds are actually emulating.įor any other binds open notepad and pick binds in the mouse software press the button and you will see what button the mouse software is emulating. Open Map, Open Bags, action bar 1, target self etc…. Use the standard binds build into the SteelSeries software for wow.

I also have a cata mouse and the best way to bind them and keep the software install for use with other games is as follows. You can do it the way other have suggested which can lead to problems with other games of course. If anyone has any suggestions I’d really appreciate it. All I have to do is click them into the box and it comes up as ‘Mouse 4’ or ‘Mouse 5’ Oddly enough two of the buttons on the mouse do work.

I know how to get into the keybinding but when I try to keybind to a button on the mouse nothing happens. I’ve got the WoW Cataclysm Gaming mouse and I was told it should be able to work in Gw2 Apart from the extra side buttons, the 98-gram Sensei 310 has the same functionality as a regular mouse. Hello, I just purchased this game and right now I am trying to figure out how to keybind my spells to the buttons on my mouse.
