Anyone out there have a recommendation on a mouse macro software that is capable of executing an action on button release? For example, what I would like it to do is something like this:

When I press the button, it presses shift so that the arms lock and the sensitivity of the mouse is lowered for accurate sniping
When I release the button it fires the weapon

I see lots of software that have a "sniping button" feature, but not any that let you perform an action when you release the button.

Anyone have any recommendations? Preferably a generic macro software, but a proprietary one is ok too. Is the logitech, Madcatz, Microsoft, or Asus Rog Gaming mice software capable of doing something like this? Or a generic free one like this?

Thanks in advance.

I run autohotkey myself. I know nothing about setting macros up though since I'm using another person's script that I just sto-er, borrowed.

If you want it to alter DPI, you're probably going to have to use a mouse with macro software (basically any gaming mouse). It's possible autohotkey can change your Windows DPI, but I dunno how that would interact with the game.

With that said, any gaming mouse software will make a DPI reduction/momentary zoom/fire sort of combo really easy.

I'd recommend leaving out fire, though: keep triggers on fire (mouse buttons, whatever you use) and have the zoom/DPI reduction on a held key. That way you're not forced to fire when you don't want to (the reason why Gauss macros are bad)
