XMouse equivalent for binding scroll wheel to left click
|
This may be not the correct place to ask this, but here it goes.
I know that programs like XMouse and Awakened POE are allowed, but I developed myself a tool which binds the mouse wheel to left click. I did it for personal use and exercise, but the code for it is public on git hub. It has two functions for now. Locking the mouse to one screen, as I have two monitors - I did this for an older game which didn't lock the mouse correctly and now I added this functionality to "bind" scrolling the mouse wheel to left click. Not to get too technical, I use the Windows API to hook to the mouse events, detect the mouse wheel scroll and use the SendInput API to press, then release the left mouse button, each time a scroll event is detected from the mouse wheel, no more than 20 times a second. It also uses a keyboard hook to enable/disable the behavior, without having to ALT+TAB to interact with it. How safe am I to use it with PoE? I'm afraid to even test it :) Last bumped on Oct 15, 2024, 9:09:26 PM

Unfortunately, we cannot comment on the legality of third-party tools, as we aren't able to thoroughly and accurately check exactly how they work.
In general, we do not encourage the creation or use of third-party tools because they provide advantages for players that use them. I'm afraid that we're unable to guarantee if a tool is allowed or would remain allowed in the future. I would recommend refraining from creating or using any programs that automates or does more than one action with a keystroke or mouse click as well as anything that interacts with the game client to provide an advantage over other players or provide information that isn't normally visible. |

Thank you for the reply.
Didn't expect a response so quickly, especially from a GGG staff member. Guess I'll stick to clicking. |
