Are the Button names working for anyone in binds?

[BlackSpectre]

Hey all, 

 

I was messing around in the KeyMapping options and discovered that my extra mouse buttons aren't being recognized anymore, and they don't seem to work in binds. Do any of these work for you?

BUTTON 1

BUTTON 2

BUTTON 3

BUTTON 4

BUTTON 5

BUTTON 6

BUTTON 7

BUTTON 8

 

Lbutton, Mbutton, and Rbutton still work...

I've never tried 1/2/3 but have only ever gotten 4 and 5 to work, none of the higher ones.

So 4 & 5 still work for you? OK. Cool. Not sure what changed with my mouse, but I'm glad they're still working for someone. 🙂

I know if you're using one of those fancy re-bindable mice that sometimes buttons can get unbound or rebound to other things.  I'd check with your mouse software if that's the case.

Small furry rodent who has a reputation for liking cheese.  Not sure if they care for pineapples as well on their pizza or just extra cheese

Not at home right now, but I also can confirm I am using one of the extra buttons on my mouse.  "Button 5" does sound familiar though.  Might be that.

i get around this on one of my devices (razer tarterus) by identifying buttons in the tarterus software as ctrl+f1 etc, then the tray power as the same combo in CoH keymapping.  works for 20 buttons at least

@BlackSpectre This can happen sometimes using a controller. Updates and/or patches can do strange things. One of options will change on the dropdown at the key mapping screen via options. Might be something might not (not at gaming computer right now).

These should work.

Thanks guys. I was just wondering if the buttons were disabled by an update because I remembered them working for my mouse (at least Button4), but I could be mistaken. It might have been a different mouse. So all's good. Appreciate the help. 🙂

@Jacke, I wrote that page! LOL

 

It's based on a post I made way back on the old live forums, and that in turn was mainly based on a post made by @Curveball in his "Incomplete and Unofficial Guide to /bind" along with info from many other forum posts. I just assembled it all.  I also updated it for Homecoming by grabbing and testing all of the key names I found in the game code (once I learned how to read it). Added a lot more key names and alternate key names that we didn't know about back on live. 

 

That said, your willingness to help is much appreciated, @Jacke.  Thank you.

@BlackSpectre The dropdown below switching to a different option has tripped up my Keymapping before. Example: Why is my controller suddenly not working?!
