Logitech G13 Gameboard

[UO-OU]

Hi everyone!

I was interested in buying the G13 for UO, however, I wasn't sure if it was compatible. If anyone has tried it, please share your experience. Any input would be great! Thanks!

I have the original G15 and the nerfed newer G15, they both work just fine with UO and EverQuest and Windows.

I do not have the G13 I have looked at it and see no reason to believe from the Macro Keys point of view there would be any incompatibility issue with UO.

The only thing I saw them mention was game information being displayed on the LCD would require specific programs that Logitech may not supply either directly or through its forums.

Compatible? Yes. Although there may not be a specific UO profile for it, you can create your own.

For anyone curious, this is what a G13 looks like...

Man that looks like it could be used for so much more than simple gaming. I should buy one of those and see if I can profile it for the adobe products.

I use a Saitek gamepad thats very similar.

I couldn't possibly play without it, it has about 40 different key combo's mapped onto it, I just change the macros on my characters to suit.

I also use a g15 keyboard and use the macro keys on that for text like "stable, claim list..." as well as pet commands for my non tamers and save desktop macros and the like.

Can that hat switch be flipped onto the other side? I mouse with my left hand and need something like this for the right.

No, the hat switch is fixed. Aside from that one issue though, the rest of the G13 is excels as much for lefties as righties. Here is an excerpt from the review:
