Anyone have this mouse and use the side button for your push to talk key? What key do you have the side button mapped to? I've been using the CAPS-LOCK key but am having some problems with it sticking.

never used the button on the mouse for vent but i used those 2 for switching wepons and my middle key for the use key. a very good mouse. after my 500 went dead thats the 1 i got

That's the MOUSE 3 key right?
In BF2 for going prone as a soldier, flares for aircraft and smoke for vehicles.
I tried but couldn't make MOUSE 4 work as a push to talk in Vent for some reason.

its got to do with key association. in the software that comes with the mouse you can set mouse3 just like the f key (Use in UO) then it just works. used to do this in mohaa

In MOH and COD I've got the two side keys mapped to lean. Neither game picks the buttons up, so I used the logitech software and mapped the side buttons to keystrokes.

I need to know how you used the software to map to keystrokes if it's easy to explain.

Open up the software.

The first screen that comes up lists all of the buttons: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8.
>Click on the button you want to assign
>Click on SELECT TASK
>Click on KEYSTROKE ASSIGNMENT
>Click on the KEYSTROKE box and enter the KEYSTROKE you want to assign.
> Click APPLY

Some keyboard controllers don't like some keys being pressed all the time, I would guess caps lock would be one of them seeing as how it's normally a momentory key. I would try changing the press to talk key to something else 1st.

Thanks Real for the help....I got my keys mapped now. Like Druid says, I had to experiment with several keys before I could get one to map properly. I made button # 5 work with BF2 for a quick change between flying/driving all vehicles to an immediate firing position (F1 command to F2). I made button # 6 revert back to driving/flying (F2 to F1).
