Mouse button switching

Unread post by Calantyr »

Does anyone know how to switch mouse button 2 and 3 for NWN2? I'm talking about the rotate camera button and the menu popup one.

There's no option in-game, but programs like X-Mouse Button Control don't work either.

The normal setup is killing my middle button, half the time I can't rotate at all. This has ruined 3 different mice now.

Thank you. Still can't get it to work though, no matter what I edit in the .2da it still doesn't display as an option.

Yup, that's the one I'm working from. However when I edit the CameraModeToggle to display in the menu, nothing shows. I'm guessing it needs a correct ActionStrRef?

Or use the x-key instead of your middle mouse button :-)
Does the same thing. Took me very little time to get used to.
