OS X Madcatz RAT 3 - HELP!

[ReturnOfTheSack]

Hey Guys,

Just got myself a Madcatz RAT 3 mouse for my macbook pro, its all working great and can work the speed adjusters and all that but i cannot for the life of me figure out the programming pages for the buttons, was wondering if anyone here could point me in the right direction? the few videos i found online are for PC and it has what looks like a different programming page.

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance
Zac

Never got them to work either - try installing their software and see if it works.

Hi,

You have probably already figured this out but in order to be able to make programming changes to your buttons you need to enable Universal Access for assistive devices, which is not so easily done if you have OS X Maverick. I have submitted a ticket with the support department of Mad Catz and am awaiting response. Perhaps they are working on an update that will fix this for us. If you have an older version of OS X then google how to enable universal access and you should be good to go.

/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/MadCatzSmartTechnology.app

to my startup items, hope it helps
