Moving this to tech for further troubleshooting
@crinrict So I just mapped the middle click button action to another button on my gaming mouse and it works fine. I just don't understand why it suddenly changed when the update came out since it was working fine the night before. I tried the middle button again in game and tried pressing it really hard and it worked although it's not like I'll be pressing that hard while playing the game. I guess I'll have to keep it mapped to another button for The Sims 4.
I'm very confused but I guess somehow this is a mouse issue on a Logitech mouse I've only had 6 months and the issue began exactly when this game patch came out. I'm not much for coincidences but either way I guess I found my fix. Not sure if there's a way this post can be deleted or hidden or something since it's not a game issue. Anyway thanks for the suggestion that lead me to figuring it out! I really appreciate it!
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@died4u525 That is really weird and it would be interesting to try another game/program if you can find one that uses the button.
You can just mark it as solve on the post that you think helped most as it can potentially help someone else with the same issue.- 6 years ago
@crinrict It is really weird. So I used the program for the gaming mouse and mapped the middle button to be right click. I tested it out and just clicking the button normally with the normal amount of pressure where I hear it click does nothing. If I put a ton of pressure like where my wrist starts to lift up from the desk then it works as I programmed it. So it does appear to be a problem with the mouse for sure but the timing is very weird. I swear I was playing The Sims 4 with it less than 12 hours before updating the game and it was fine. I checked the software for the mouse and there are no updates So it's weird but it seems to be the mouse and I guess now I'm stuck with a mouse with a broken middle button. Wonder if it's still under warranty...
Thanks so much for your help!
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@died4u525 Should be. Don't know about your country but here it's usually at least a year.
