What I'm looking for is a way to have uninterrupted forward movement even if I change modes. Now with the Belkin n52 this wasn't a problem. If I was pushing a button on the gamepad that was assigned to move forward (w) then changed modes with another button while still pressing the forward button, then so long as I programed the different mode with the same (w) forward movement, in the same location on the pad, I would continue to move forward without interruption. This doesn't seem to be the same with the G-13. Changing modes stops all running Macros so I have to re-press the key while in the second mode to keep moving forward. Now since I usually don't stay in the second mode for any longer than to press one button then return to the first mode, then it is annoying to have to remember to re-press the forward key again. Think about Flying in BF2....Suddenly you find yourself falling out of the sky because you used a view change macro located on the second mode and forgot to re-press the forward key after changing your view. I've also tried using a simple key press but that doesn't carry over either.

It seems to me that I saw a thread on how to make a macro finish even if you change modes...but can't find it. This would be nice for several macros I use that need time to run. That way I wouldn't have to continue to press the Mode change button to complete the long Macro. Yes, my mode change buttons return to M1 when released.

Maybe this could be done from script but that could get huge. I was hoping there might be something simple that I could do....maybe a trick someone here might know...?

first I think a simple script could do this.. with the proper exception that would allow it to continue... actually i think it would be dirt simple... but.. i was thinking about something i want.. i wanted to completely sever the g13 apps for a regular un interrupted always on time buff cycle. even if another macro.. or i am surfing porn.. the buffs still get through..

I used the scripting in www.autohotkey.com (i used this product for a year now, simple and faithful). My 2 methods i am testing is a timed click(not taking the mouse pointer away from me) on a action button and a text delivery /Select /Useskill XXXXXX. Actually both seem flawless .. and my buffs range from 2min to 45min buffs

I don't believe this is a problem any longer with the latest drivers, and this is a rather old post. Besides, that doesn't answer his question. o.O
