If you are just using AHK (or any software) to bind MWHEEL UP/DN to a single existing in-game function, then I don’t see a problem.
I pretty much stated this in my first reply, seems OP just doesn’t want to listen. You still run a risk of account ban IF A.Net bans for using these kinds of tools. Nobody can answer that besides a GM.
I read your 2 cents and took it like a grain of salt. You are just some dude in a forum that has to put his 2 cents in every thread they see. Every forum has these people. I have turned in 2 support tickets about this Still waiting for a real answer. Just really hoping that they will just make mouse wheel up and down where you can bind them.
-1 op .. no point in trying to argue with you. You don’t know what you are talking about.
I was looking at the patch notes and thought it was very odd that they did nothing to the necro. They even fixed the Ranger pet AI. I guess the necro’s pets are undead , so they are stupid and like to watch use get killed with out doing anything.
+1 terok7315 so true

Most keyboard and gaming mouse software nowadays has huge macro recording capabilities, some of them even offer recording and playback on-the-fly. Autohotkey simply provides the same functionality as those proprietary software.
I agree. I for one see no difference. I wish I could get a real answer and not a guess.
If you want a real answer, make a ticket to the support and ask the question.
You will get a GM response, which will not be a guess.
However don’t come here crying about wait times. And stop being a stubborn kid.
Did this over a week ago. No answer yet. Thanks for your 2 cents. Love all the forum people with insults and no help.

Um…you aren’t being “punished for the kind of mouse you have.”
I’m just gonna leave this convo right here, as you obviously don’t get it, man.
No you don’t get it. I know about gaming mouse. I don’t want to get a new mouse. Got a fine one already. Not what the topic was about. You came in giving your 2 cents about buying a gaming mouse. I’m looking for a answer from them, not hearing some opinion from someone that has nothing to do with the game.

Didn’t want to buy a new mouse for a game. I don’t need a new mouse got a good one here.
I didn’t say your mouse wasn’t good. I told you the options that you have, you just don’t seem to like them.
It isn’t like this is a new thing for GW2 or something. There are lots of keys in other games that are not bindable/hard-coded. The only legit way to get around that without worrying about being banned is using a programmable mouse.
That is dumb. Why should I be punished for the kind of mouse i have. I could use autohotkey. “if they would answer me” It is no different then gaming mouse software.

So until they patch it enjoy pressing 1 repeatedly to use the engie bombkit.
That is to bad. All i want to do is bind my mouse wheel up and down.
Then use programmable mouse software. Modern-day gaming mice will have this, i.e. any Logitech or Razer gaming mouse, etc. Cheap junk like a $25 Wal-Mart 3 button mouse of course will not have programmable buttons. This is one of the selling features of gaming mice. Especially since a lot of games have hard-coded controls, or are straight 360 ports with no custom keybinding.
Example: In my G700 software, I can set Mousewheel Up and Mousewheel Down to any available keystroke. Then it saves to the mouse. Then you don’t ever have to run the software again. Using this method I can assign custom mouse controls in games that don’t even support custom control configs.

AVG is garbage. No one should ever install it. It is just a big virus.

I also Just wondering if they are ever going to change this or should I use a third party program to use the mouse wheel up or down. If so is it considered a hack using a third party program to bind my mouse wheel up or down?
It is bound to zoom by default. I want to rebind it to a different “key” function. I don’t want to have to buy a gaming mouse just to use the mouse wheel. I can bind zoom to a different key. Who zooms in and out while playing? I don’t.
Can’t bind mouse wheel up or down
Can’t bind mouse wheel up or down. Is there any hope of this getting fixed?
