Razer Deathadder (buttons 4 &5) no longer working on this game

[HotWilly]

I last played around 3 weeks ago. I had melee and chainsaw keybound to the side buttons (4&5) on the Deathadder using the in game keybindings menu. All worked fine, however now they do not work at all. Mouse is working fine in all other games so its certainly an issue with Doom. Any advise?

Left/Right Click, Mouse buttton, Scroll UP/DOWN also all working fine, just buttons 4 & 5.

Have updated all MSI drivers, Nvidia Drivers, Razer Drivers etc.

Running on 970GTX MSI / i5 - 4960k / MSI Gaming 5 Mobo

My sound dumb, did you try and unplug the mouse or try a different usb port?

also don't assign game commands to those buttons, E n F are used in most games today, set mb 4 n 5 to E n F. I bet it works.

I have tried the old unplug and report, but no luck. Also I cannot reassign them as the buttons do not respond at all when in the game. Mouse certainly fine and working correctly on Diablo and Internet Browsers.

i loved my deathadder (LH) lasted me 5yrs. did you use the razer synapse app.? and don't reassign the buttons in game do it from the razer app. also you may want to check the mouse settings within windows. what i did I restored my os to a priv. time, a week back and that fixed some issues i had with non-window programs. i'm guess here cause mb 4 n 5 should work in doom.

I almost hate to ask this, but did you try a different mouse like maybe you have a spare or a back up

wow, diablo i've not played that for some time (great game)

I tried it with my back up naga but it worked fine with the buttons above the scroll wheel.

I gave up so went and had a bath and a cuppa tea. Came back to try again and it's resolved itself, so who knows.

D3 still great :)

Do you happen to know why it resolved itself? I have the same issue and I have no clue how to fix it.

Had the same issue. I had actions in my Razer Synapse active profile assigned to those side buttons (mouse 4 & 5). Unassigning them made the buttons usable in Doom (2016).
