Q: I have one of those new mice that has the "tilt mousewheel" function (the mouse wheel can be pushed left or right). How can I map that into a game? The game doesn't see the tilt functions.
A: You need to have the respective mouse driver loaded, but have no function (or a "generic function") mapped to those two controls. Then the game should be able to see it, but it'll have to be a relatively modern game.
