I was saying that if you could hypothetically do what I said it would make feedback good, but I never said it actually worked. No need to be a dick.guess someone never played protoss and talks like he found out something. this cheat is useless for any spell that protoss has, except may be creating hallucinations, where it isn't needed anyway. | ||

Is it possible to do this with just sc2 itself rather than using some program? Thanks | ||

Thanks Simply put, the driver software that the manufacturer of your mouse can assign your scroll wheel to a "Macro" that you can assign to use the left or right mouse button when your scroll wheel sends input to your computer. It is not considered against TOS because it is not doing multiple actions on a single input. Doing this method with mouse drivers and the programs that manufacturers make for them is no different than using something like X-Mouse for the same thing. All programs that manipulate the input of hardware devices are considered "third party" and it does not matter what one you use as long as you are doing 1 action per 1 input. | ||

If you are playing terran, and are caught off guard when 8 ultras suddenly appear, you can select all of your ghosts and nearly instantly queue up snipes vs having to click on each and ever ultralisk 10 times. That's assuming you have like 20+ ghosts in the first place, which is considerably more expensive than 8 ultras. This technique is only really an issue when terran has mass ghosts, and quite frankly if you let them reach that point you are in so much trouble regardless. In the sorts of engagements that actually happen in real games it is not really any faster than simply spamming left click. Even with a decent number of ghosts selected I can click faster than they can fire. And anyway if we are really talking late late game then with 20+ ghosts then terran has so many scans available that he always has warning and vision of any incoming army. | ||

Okay, now I have a Razer Deathadder and it has drivers for things like this I believe, can you outline what exactly I'd need to do? Like what keys within the driver would I have to reassign, and what keys in starcraft would I have to reassign? | ||

Here is a screen of what you need to change under the Razer drivers UI. Very simple: http://i.imgur.com/E3Vu2.jpg Change Values to "Click" or "Menu" depending on whether you want it bound to left or right click... | ||

Anyway is this working as intended? If not, then Blizzard will fix it. (keep it mind that viking flower / archon toilet were considered not working as intended) | ||

What do I change them to? Would I simply change Scroll up or down to press the 'r' key? It seems like this would conflict with browsing the internet and doing other things. Is there a way to do it without having to switch profiles each time I play starcraft? Thanks again | ||

Thanks again Change scroll keys to "click" (you will see the options in the drop down menu) You simply hold down "r" and scroll/click the units you want to snipe.... it sucks but you must switch profiles every time you game vs browse the net if you use scrolling in your web browser. If someone finds away around this please post.... | ||

(keep it mind that viking flower / archon toilet were considered not working as intended) This has nothing to do with blizzard, ive done this on many fps(for trolling/funzies) Back in cod4, i would take the .50 cal, take Bandolier and slight of hand (extra ammo/fast reloading) The only thing different, though, the ingame settings allowed anyone to do this even without mouse driver software. Theres honestly nothing to stop this UNLESS they put a cap on how fast you could click, then, it could interfear with pros.. Honestly, alot of ppl in FPS games think of it as hacking, but ITS IN THE GAME SETTINGS ITSELF TO DO SO See. | ||

i think blizzard can't fix it without changing the UI so you need to hit the key each time you do the command you're only rebinding one mouse button to another so i don't see how blizzard can detect this | ||

For us humans, this mouse wheel trick works better for snap sniping instead of move command (dangerous in and of itself) -> queue and take 15+ seconds to queue snipes | ||
