Logitech TrackMan Keystroke Assignment Problem
duncandisorderly:
I have used a Logitech Cordless Optical TrackMan mouse for many years now. My current mouse is my third and works perfectly for every game/programme except The Sims 3.
In addition to the standard left click, right click and scroll wheel, there are 5 additional buttons. These buttons can be programmed in the options to use a specified keystroke assignment of your choice. Having the ability to undo (CTRL + Z), Delete, and rotate (, . keys) on the mouse is a handy feature I've come to depend on. These keystroke assignments worked in The Sims 2. When The Sims 3 was released, I had no issues. If memory serves me correctly, it was some time after World Adventures was released that my keystroke buttons stopped working. The problem didn't appear immediately after installing an expac. or a patch. Every other game I play has no issues and I still have the ability to use this feature. I've changed nothing in my options and my driver is up to date.
I'd like to add that I have been a good little lurker and made sure I searched the site and googled my ass off trying to find a solution before posting. EA Games and Logitech kindly sent me a generic macro reply suggesting I update my drivers. DUH!
Some Awesomeness would be appreciated please.

I'm using Logitech mouse too. My problem is that when I click the button wheel to tilt right and left, it doesn't work. I have the latest driver update. Surprisingly, it worked when I disabled the Logitech Mouse control center thing.

Sadly, it appears our problems are unrelated. For a start, I have no issues with my button wheel, my wheel doesn't even have the tilt click feature.
My Logitech Mouse control center thing is called Set Point. Set Point has 5 sections; Button Settings (the section where I programme my keystrokes), Pointer Settings, Mouse Batteries, Orientation Settings and finally Game Settings. All my settings are correct. Disabling Set Point would only make matters worse for me because I would lose the ability to use the feature entirely.
Thank you for your reply and I hope you resolve your problem.

You missed the point. The suspicion is that the control centre for logitec mice does not play nice for Sims. I used to have this problem with my old logitec mouse. If we're talking purely about the functions available through the control centre you may be screwed. Check for different versions of driver and control centre, but it may simply be that you are going to have to live with this problem.

Now I know with a name as heeeeelariuz as "duncandisorderly" that I may be answering my own question but I MUST ask - ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED? Why are you coming HERE for a PERIPHERALS PROBLEM? If you're having problems programming a PERIPHERAL to interact with TS3, GO TO THE MANUFACTURER.
