TaffinMouse 0.3 easy program 4 using scroll wheel and forward/back buttons in Thief 1 - by KoHaN69

That's a great idea KoHaN69 !
I wish I'd been aware of this earlier...
The program works almost perfect for me.
"Almost" because I have problems with the side buttons of my mouse, a razer deathadder :
- both buttons seem to be bound to the Alt key, that's how they appear in thief configuration anyway
- when I press them when bound to next or previous item, the next/previous object is indeed selected, but also used at once ! (A scroll is read or a potion drunk for example)
I don't really miss using the side buttons but that's a strange behaviour !
Also, as Nameless Voice said, the Pageup/down buttons are not too great for me, I usually use Pagedown to lean right.
I can change my habits of course (and I will for the time being), but would it be possible to bind the mouse wheel to less special keys, i mean for example to letters that are less likely to be already used, maybe U or I ?
But this is not so important, all that really matters to me is to be able to use mouse wheel in thief 1, so thanks a lot !

regarding your razor, try uninstalling the drivers for it, and see if that fixes the ALT problem
If you want to rebind the keys:
1. just download and install autohotkey
(
http://www.autohotkey.com/download/)
2. then copy TaffinMouse0_3.ahk from TaffinMouse0_3\src folder, to the thief installation directory
3. Open TaffinMouse0_3.ahk with notepad
4. scroll down to
Code:
; ======================================BIND KEYS==================================================
5. Change
Code:
*WheelDown::SendInput, {PgDn}
*WheelUp::SendInput, {PgUp}
return
to
Code:
*WheelDown::SendInput, {i}
*WheelUp::SendInput, {U}
return
(or whatever keys you want)
6. Save and close.
7. Run TaffinMouse0_3.ahk (if asks what program, poin tot autohotkey.exe in autohotkey's install directory)
That's it! :thumb:

This worked on TG after I uninstalled my mouse drivers, but the forward and back do not work for T2. Any ideas cause I got way to comfortable with the F/B buttons for inventory.
