MouseWheel

Is there a way to bind the mousewheel to fire when you scroll up? I tend to hammer my left mouse button pretty hard when I'm using the DAO, and I need a way that I could fix that. So is it possibly to do this?

Thats a rather novel way of getting a good rate of fire with the DAO-12, i like your thinking. Can you post back to tell us all how you got on and if it works or is easier, in your opinion of course. It would be fairly specific to the DAO-12 i would assume but i use it so much now as well i am trying to consider better ways of killing with it

Re: MouseWheel

Well I need to do this or I'm gonna have to stop using the DAO (one of my favorite guns) beccause I hit my mouse so hard when I use it. This is my 2nd mouse in a month...seriously. I tried a few things and didn't get it to work, but I'll check out that link and see if that does the trick.

I have the same problem as you and was wondering if i could bind it to the wheel as well, its so hard to fire quickly AND controll the recoil.

Okay got it to work. I actually set scroll up and down as fire but when I do that after one game one of them stops working, and it dissappears out of controls.con. Dunno why. One of them will stay though. Maybe you cant have 3 fire buttons? :/ But here's what you do....

MyDocuments>Battlefield 2>Profiles>0001>Controls

ControlMap.create InfantryPlayerInputControlMap
ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIYaw IDFKeyboard IDKey_D IDKey_A 0
ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIThrottle IDFKeyboard IDKey_W IDKey_S 0
ControlMap.addButtonToTriggerMapping c_PIFire IDFMouse IDButton_0 0 0
ControlMap.addAxisToTriggerMapping c_PIFire -1 IDFMouse IDAxis_2 1

Make that the first 5 lines (quicker than having you find the exact line) and it will make scroll up your fire button. If you want both to fire (maybe they'll stay for someone else) just add this line under the last...

ControlMap.addAxisToTriggerMapping -1 c_PIFire IDFMouse IDAxis_2 1

Now, when I had both the scrolls firing, it was a pretty quick fire rate, but you don't have quite as much control compared to left mouse clicking. When I had just one of the scrolls going, it was a little slower, but that could just be because I need to get used to it. Either way, at least I won't have to pound on my mouse any longer!

Re: MouseWheel

nicely done i am going to try this myself now, see how i get on with the scroll fire :) When you say it stopped working? do you mean until a restart, or did you have to re-enter the config? i sually make the file "read-only" if its the latter.
