losing ability to zoom with mouse wheel

Hey guys,

After getting a new computer and maxing out my resolution to 1920 x 1080 (widescreen), I have noticed that my ability to zoom the camera in and out with my mouse wheel is no longer present.

I have looked in all the settings for controls/keyboard settings that I could find, but nothing brings it back. The only way I can zoom now is using the default home and end buttons on my keyboard.

Does anyone have a /bind or something or a workaround that can restore my ability to zoom in and out with the mouse wheel? I'd love to get it back asap.

Thx for the help

Have you got a mouse utility running? Sometimes those will override CoH. When I got a Logitech mouse, I had to disable all the special button functionality so that CoH could read buttons 4 thru 6.

How do you disable the special buttons? Is it just assigning them?

I am having this issue with new logitech mouse.

1. In the game try these commands:
/unbind mousewheel

/bind MOUSEWHEEL "+camdistadjust"
2. Outside the game try these actions:
A. Reboot

B. Delete your mouse driver and let windows install default.

C. Go to website of mouse manufacturer for an updated driver.

This thing been bugging me for quite awhile. I found that the problem is the accelerated scrolling speeds some mice have.

A workaround for me was installing a program called X-Mouse Button Control, and changed it so it intercepts scroll up and down with normal scroll up and down. Fixed it for me, in all games.
I really don't miss the accelerated scroll feature at all

Had this happen a couple of years back when I installed a Microsoft Explorer mouse - no matter what I did I couldn't get the scroll wheel to zoom.
Eventually I got the zoom back - after I changed the mouse! - seems to be a problem with the mouse driver - and yes I had tried updating to the latest version.

That's what I figured the solution would be. How I hate computers!
I mean when they work they are awesome, but that's how they get us emotionally involved before twisiting the soul-wrenching knife of complexity.

I tinkered with some setting and by selecting generic for buttons three through five I get functionality back.

Yeah!
