Hi,
after reading your post again it occured to me you were talking about the buttons
I always forget about.
To be sure everything worked correct I downloaded and installed the latest setpoint.
I was behind on this. I also checked the config in setpoint. In Windows the buttons
worked fine. Ingame (different games) however not, whatever setting I used.
So in setpoint I changed button 5/6 and configured them as keystroke assigned using R and J (choosen randomly)
as test. Ingame I now was able to trigger reload and chat with the left/right option of the scroll button.
Unless there is another way, it seems you need to find unused keyboard buttons, assign them to
those buttons and assign the keyboard buttons ingame.
In setpoint you can also set these options to specific programs instead of standard but I have not tried
that out yet.
You can find instruction here: http://superuser.com/questions/341820/logitech-g5-side-button-is-not-generic
It shows a MX1100 and program specific settings but the basics and config of the buttons are the same.
Be alert iof the button numbers though.
I hope this helps a little.
Thank you very much . I was using the same kind of arpoach to get the buttons to work .
I was just wondering if it was a bug , that doesnt allow me to change directly the keybinds clicking the mouse buttons direclty in the keybind editor of BF4.
I'm gonna read the link and i get to you later.
Cheers .
I am having the same problem with my G5. I have win 8.1 as well (since the preview release) and with BF4, the thumb back/foward buttons only map as a single button. In 3 (same OS and swapping between games) they work and map just fine.
Outside of the game, they also work just fine.
Seems like a bug with BF4?
I'm having the same issue with my Logitech G5 mouse and Battlefield 4. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro. Battlefield 4 specifically (I haven't found any other programs or games that share this same issue) will not recognize the 'back' button (4 - generic button).
Like others have stated, the work around is using Logitech's SetPoint settings to set that specific button to a keystroke assignment and changing the in-game key binding for that specific keystroke. The issue with this work around is that one has to change the SetPoint settings each time they play Battlefield 4 as the button looses it's 'back' functionality once the SetPoint settings are modified.
