I'm trying to set up a multi-weapon group macro using the macro editor in the Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse Center. The macro works in any other application (I.E. if I open a word processor and click the selected key it will produce the number sequence I setup for it) but in MWO it doesn't seem to register for some reason. Any ideas?

Be sure your individual keystrokes are long enough. Normal default keystokes on repeat are 20 /second (like when you hold down a key on your keyboard) at 32miliseconds each, but when manually setting macros most use 50ms for good measure. If the keystroke events are too short in length though, the MWO client doesn't have time to pick them up.

Yeah, tried setting them as high as one second...still nothing, and it seems to just be an issue in the MWO application.

Same. For whatever reason my microsoft mouse (sidewinder X5) doesn't want to work with MWO.
