Hi,

i have a mouse with 5 keys. is there a way to use the forward and back key for changing the primary and secundary weapon?? That would be awesome. I tryed the settings and selceted infantary, than the primary weapon change and klicked the back key from my mouse, but nothing happens. I don't know why. but at focus enemy it says Q or mousekey 4. Don'T knwo what key this should be, but it shows me that BFII knows more than just 3 mouse keys.

Which mouse is it? If it's a Logitech M510, it's easy to get working for SWBF2. Otherwise, it might still be, but I have a M510, so I could help with it or probably other Logitech mice too.

If it came with software you might be able to change the profile.

Like, stock it might be programmed to do like,

Code: Select all

LMouse                     = Left Click
RMouse                    = Right CLick
Press down on wheel = Zoom
LSide Button             = Back
RSide Button             = Forward
But then change it to something like

Code: Select all

LMouse                     = Left Click
RMouse                    = Right CLick
Press down on wheel = Middle Click
LSide Button             = Mouse Button 4
RSide Button             = Mouse Button 5
Might also be called Generic Button for all extra buttons, and may still work with browser as expected.
And games generally do better with settings like that, and the buttons may still work as back and forward in a browser

Or, if it doesn't have Mouse Button 4/5 but has Keybind

Code: Select all

LMouse                     = Left Click
RMouse                    = Right CLick
Press down on wheel = middle click
LSide Button             = Keybind [Right Arrow]
RSide Button             = Keybind [Left Arrow]
Logitech mice come with software that does this, I don't know whether HP mice do or not.

computer search
file search
file-explorer
window maximize
windows minimize
all windows minimize
run
windowsmenu

back
delete
draglock
end
entry ( i think it's return in english)
home
page up
page down
space
tab
play/pause

volume -

i think page up and page down should be the best ones.

Yeah those look like the most likely options. So set them and go ingame and try setting the controls with the mouse buttons, it should think you are pressing the keys and list the controls that way, but ingame work correctly.
