Use USB Overdrive instead
Folks, there's a MUCH easier way!
Use USB Overdrive instead
Every time I read something like this, I feel compelled to reply. USB Overdrive breaks all applications that want to access HID input devices. Games are the biggest victims! It's not worth the trouble.
USB Overdrive Doesn't Break Anything
To clarify here USB Overdrive doesn't break HID at all. I have an MX 1000 that I use extensively for games and since Logitech Driver's blow chunks I use USB Overdrive. The reason it appears to "break" HID is because, by default, when in any application it still uses the action that you set in USB Overdrive which the HID isn't going to recognize. The great part about USB Overdrive is that it is application aware so you can set it up to change settings based on what app or game you are in (a feature lacking from Logitech's drivers). So to get HID working you just have to set up a application profile in USB Overdrive that transmits "raw" clicks to the game you're using ("Mouse Button 3" for example) rather than whatever you have the third button set for. Then, after you have it set up for one game you can easily duplicate the profile to be used in other games. |
