game control commands for intellimouse

[bcraig]

I want to configure my microsoft intellimouse (optical; wheel and four buttons) to customize commands for JKII JO. Help- anyone?

Are you asking for what setup would be best or how to program your mouse so the game will recognize it?

 

To answer the 2nd ?, use the Intellipoint software to bind keystrokes to the different buttons. That's the only way to use all those extra buttons on the mouse....just treat it like a pseudo keyboards.

As to what to put on there I have the wireless optical explorer with 5 buttons total (including the mousewheel) set up as follows

 

left click:primary fire

right click: secondary fire

wheel: change stance

pressing wheel down: turn saber on

Button#4 mindtrick

Button#5 heal

 

(Lightside setup)

All my other force powers are within 1 key away from WASD.

I am using an Intellimouse Optical trackball

(same as your mouse just that its a trackball)

 

If you mostly use your saber and force

then you'll want a setup like this

 

Button 1 - Primary Fire

 

Button 2 -Secondary Fire

 

Button 3 (Press Wheel Button) - Jump

 

(WHEEL UP) - Next Weapon or Force

 

(WHEEL DOWN) - Previous Weapon or Force

 

Button 4 - Strafe Left

 

Button 5 - Strafe Right

 

 

I use the strafing for these buttons not through JK-2

but through the Intellimouse software itself...

 

Set up the left button (button 4)

 

to be a keystroke and use the letter A

 

Set up the right button (button 5)

 

to be a keystroke and use the letter D

 

 

Only problem with this is that I I have to launch the Intellimouse software and look to make sure they're still setup as keystrokes because I have it setup for use with individual programs.
