    Is their a way to set the zoom/forward/backwards/search clicks to do an action in a game such as cs:s by assigning mouse 4,5,6 etc? the only way i can find rite now is use the program that comes with the mouse to set the clicks to a letter on the keyboard, then set that letter to an action. I rather not do this is there another way? thx.

    The setpoint method is the only way I can think of to do that, without actually tinkering with the game, which I don't have.

    I have the same mouse and I love it. In set point set your side buttons to generic button and they will be usable in CSS. I also have my search button bound to \ which I then bind to a key I currently do not use the zoom or the mouse wheel rocking motion because I have plenty of buttons as I currently have it set up. I may set the others up to keystrokes if I ever play a game that requires more buttons.
