Is it possible to key bind to the World of Warcraft Steel Series Mouse. Within the mouse application there is a way to assign button numbers, but im not having any luck with keybinds to the specified mouse button.

Anyone know if these are compatible?

    Will the mouse allow you to set each button as a keyboard press? If so, you could go into the mouse set-up software for Z-Engine (I use a steelseries keyboard) and set each mouse button to emulate a specific keyboard function.

    Atleast on other Multikey-Gaming-Mouse you can bind any actions to any key.
    So you could bind any letter to any mousekey.

    You can also give a try at gameplay settings and just hit the mousekey you want...

    I use a Razer Naga mouse (in addition to the Steelseries Merc Stealth keyboard) and I have had occasional problems with using the in-game key assignments for a few buttons. It is more than likely "user error", but I have found it much easier to use the software to adjust my mouse's buttons than to use the in-game method.

    Of course I will often change the in-game key bindings to be set on a different key than the default setting in order to make the mouse buttons a little easier to set up.

    Yeah it doesn't detect the additional buttons, just scroll and right left click.

    What's weird though is it used to. I played this game all summer long and logged almost 1000 hours, all with this and all 11 buttons on it worked, now I stepped back in and can't get the mouse to work anymore, on the same computer too. Other games it works, in notedpad it works, but in game I get nothing....anyone found a fix yet? I don't know that I'd want to retrain myself so this would be game breaking for me :/

    Go into the SteelSeries folder in Program Files, in WoW legendary mouse folder there should be three exe files. Select them and right-click on them to go into properties and set all three to run as Administrator. This should work, but only works for some people.

    I can never stop using the best mouse ever. The Razer Naga, has like a cell phone keypad on the left-inside of the mouse, to activate with your right thumb.

    I have the Epic Naga and the scroll wheel broke because they are now made ****tily in China to save the company money. So iof you like they ONLY get a reg $60 Naga, would be strongly advised. Software provided for it allows macros and keybind changes. Gl.
