Remapping commands to mouse, and missing commands

[Argent]

Howdy Folks,

I've not yet had time to dig deeply into X Rebirth yet, but I'm looking forward to it greatly. I had just a few questions that I couldn't seem to find answers to yet. My joystick is in the crapper, so I'll be using mouse control for now.

Can I map my mouse buttons? I have a 5 button mouse, and I would like to be able to do something with my thumb buttons.

Can I get numerical displays for my shield and hull strength? Bars are fine, and I would like to keep them also, but a percentage is always best for me.

Is there a way for finer speed control, and speed matching?

Thanks for any help!

"Can I map my mouse buttons? I have a 5 button mouse, and I would like to be able to do something with my thumb buttons. "

My problem is similar. Sins I haven't found a way to rebind the mouse buttons, every time I use my push-to-talk button in teamspeak (which I have bound to mouse button 4 (one of the thumb buttons)) I also fire missiles in X Rebirth.

Anyone know of a way to rebind the mouse buttons?

Not sure if that 7181892 folder is same for everyone but it was only folder in there, and that folder should contain inputmap.xml file, i opened it with notepad++ and managed to unbind/rebind mouse4 button, it used to be Fire missile and reason i wanted to unbind is that its my push to talk key in teamspeak.

That INPUT_KEYCODE_R means "R" key on your keyboard, thats bind for Fire Missile. I hope they add all those missing keybinds in ingame options someday.

Nice, I managed to unbind missile fire for button 4 on the mouse thanks to Prismaa's tip. As Prismaa suspected my folder had another name but it was in the same place and contained the input.xml file.
