I got this brand spanking new five button optic mouse. However, It Doesn't seem to want to let me bind the fourth and fifth buttons. It counts them all as 'Mouse3', as opposed to mouse4/5. Anyone know a way to bind them?

I think you need to do something with your mouse configuration. When I got my 3 button i wanted the middle to be my JUMP button but it wouldn't recongnize it, so i just had to change some stuff. I'm not sure if that would be it but it's worth a try.

5 button?? Post a pic of that baby i'd like to see it

No.

In my config i can assign the 3 to five buttons to what i want. I try binding four and five to page up and down, but tfc still recognizes them as mouse three. Bah.

If its a MS mouse, make sure you have the IntelliPoint software running in the system tray.

The way I use meh 5 button mouse is assign the 4th and 5th buttons to emulate keys I don't usually use. So if I assign it to kp_pgup and kp_pgdown then I can bind kp_pgup <command> and it'll assign it to the proper mouse button. Do this in you're mouse config.

Actually, i thought about doing that, but it decides to be stupid and -still- read the two buttons as mouse3.

Pond, i will try that, but i don't think it works...
