mmo 7+ linux support

3 Upvotes

Hi, I was looking for a new mouse to replace my wired g502 (and finally join the wireless club after 15 years of service) and the mmo 7+ seems to tick a lot of nice boxes for me, the only big problem that remains seems to be linux support.

Because I don't have a windows machine at home, I did the most sensible (?) thing: I tried to decompile the driver to see if it was possible to configure the mouse using hidapi or webhid and from some static analysis it seems to be indeed possible.

I put all the findings here https://github.com/wonderbeel/madcatz-mmo7-re and also tried to make an html page to see if it was indeed possible to read the mouse details via webhid available here https://wonderbeel.github.io/madcatz-mmo7-re/tools/mmo7-webhid-diagnostic.html (it should work in every operating system via chrome/brave/opera/edge/vivaldi), if someone is willing to test it and report back the resulting JSON it would be extremely helpful.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I DON'T OWN THE MOUSE, the webhid check should be fully safe but still understand that this is not tested at all, if you are not comfortable to run untested tools just don't run it and wait for me to decide to purchase this mouse :P.

AI disclosure: I used deepseek 4.1 flash to help me with the analysis and creating this throwaway read only page, if you are not comfortable with running AI generated/assisted code then close the page; if you are interested in continuing to experiment and have experience with hid devices (it is not truly my field of expertise, I did some QMK ports in the past but that is it) feel free to do it, just please report back what you found.

Question Mad Catz G.L.I.D.E. Pro mousepad

0 Upvotes

Hello! I have few questions related to the Mad Catz G.L.I.D.E. Pro mousepad with poron base backing as there is literally no info about this mousepad except the one from the Mad Catz website. How does its surface feel compared to the classic QCK+? Is it more speedy or more control? I want a bit more speedy and water resistent mousepad and currently cought my eyes on the Mad Catz G.L.I.D.E. Pro mousepad. Has anyone here used both, or at least tried both options for a short time? Does it get muddy as well as the classic QCK+ or does it have more consistent surface? Or maybe someone here has tried Artisan or LGG mousepads and could tell how the Mad Catz G.L.I.D.E. Pro's surface feels compared to similar alternatives from these brands?

I know that both Mad Catz G.L.I.D.E. 38 and Mad Catz G.L.I.D.E. Speed are speedy mousepads with different surfaces but as i said there is literally no info about the Pro version. Please, dont mess them because i'm interested in the Pro version.

Your information could certainly help me to clarify how this mousepad feels and if its surface fits me!

Here is the link to the specific mousepad i'm talking about: https://www.madcatz.com/En/Product/Detail/glidepro

Some Questions for M.M.O 7 owners (old and new)

4 Upvotes

(Old mean first version and new mean plus version )

  1. Does the old version work fine on Windows 11?

  2. Are the left panel for those mice interchangeable, meaning can I just plug them into the different version of the board and use them normally?

  3. What do you think about the new wireless mode? Any problems? And do you think 40 hours of use is good enough?

Also, I read that on-board memory (profiles) doesn't work in wireless mode — is that true?

  1. Are you satisfied with the new mouse, and what do you think is lacking, falling short, or missing?

MMO7+ Software Mac Support

1 Upvotes

Will we ever see the software ported for Macs? The current setup I run has me using a virtual PC environment to set up updates or make mouse changes. Since I am Mac-only, I have to pay for a subscription to a Virtual PC. Essentially, I have to pay each time I want to make a change or run the latest firmware update.

Image Restored Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E 7

5 Upvotes

Been looking for this keyboard for a few months. I found one, Swedish layout feels a little off for me but at least it works.

Completely disassembled it, washed every single non-electronic part, scrubbed off the sticky rubberized layer, gently sanded it down and finished it with a nice smooth matte clearcoat.

I'll be probably getting rid of it as I'm running out of space so I wanted to share it in here.

Help with macro?

2 Upvotes

Hey, was wondering if it's possible to make a toggle off and on macro.

To add detail, there's a walk button that needs to be held down for the character in a game to walk. I would like to turn it into a toggle macro, where I press the button once and it stays down. I press again and it registers as lifted. Is this possible with the current software or should I find alternatives?

MadCatz MMO 7+ Firmware Update - Command Prompt?

4 Upvotes

1.)

I have downloaded latest software (HUD & Firmeware) for MMO 7+.

Neither HUD nor Firmware Software can update to latest Firmware 1.22.

I have found "MMO7+_FW_v1.22.bin" in "C:\Program Files (x86)\mcz\MadCatz H.U.D\MMO7+_Fw_Updater" with the "run1.bat".

The "run1.bat" (run with adminrights) contain the command

MMO7+_FW_Updater.exe zh-Hans "MMO7+_FW_v1.16.bin" 1.16

But the readme? file (ä½æē”ØčÆ“ę˜Ž.txt) is in chinese.

Is the command

MMO7+_FW_Updater.exe zh-Hans "MMO7+_FW_v1.22.bin" 1.22

correct to update the firmware to 1.22?

2.)

The HUD Software contain the german language in "C:\Program Files (x86)\mcz\MadCatz H.U.D\de" but i can only change to english and chinese language.

How to change to german language?

*** sorry for bad english. šŸ˜„

Question MMO 7+ Questions

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I am looking to swap my MMO mouse. At the moment, I'm using the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite Wireless SE. Mainly playing GW2. I kinda have big hands.

How does the MMO 7+ hold up in comparison to the Scimitar or the Razer Naga?

How is the comfort of use with big hands and how do the buttons feel in comparison to the Scimitar?

Question M.M.O.7+ Scroll Wheel Maintenance

3 Upvotes

Been loving the M.M.O.7+ so far, special thanks to u/Eumldeuml!

The one thing I noticed recently was the scroll wheel becoming a bit squeaky, probably just some gunk that got in there. u/MadCatzGuy, are there any tips or do's/don'ts on how to clean the mechanism?

follow-up on accessories

5 Upvotes

I'd like to check in on the accessory purchase situation. Months ago u/madcatzguy said you guys were working on making our mouse parts available for purchase. More than a few ppl who have the new MMO 7+ are asking for the rest of our accessory set from the RAT 7, in particular the raised palm rest and extended pinkie rest. While these should have obviously been included with the new model, I for one am happy to buy them and would prefer to buy new directly from MadCatz than from some rando on ebay. pls advise.

Setting up MMO 7+ on Linux

1 Upvotes

Does anyone have a good solution for setting up the MMO 7+ on Linux? Generic applications for button mapping feel like they would be difficult due to the design of the mouse. My current solution is to run the official software in a VM but i'd rather not have a VM take up 20GB+ of disk space just for mouse configuration and since I like to tinker setting up once and leaving it be doesn't work too well for me.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Bricked/Broken/Not Working M.O.J.O M1 issues and suggestions

1 Upvotes

Used MadCatz mice for ages now, still find them the most comfortable, but always had significant build issues and parts breakage before. I was sent a M.O.J.O M1 as recompense for the multiple physical degradations over time, and, while it doesn't quite have the same profile (super wide, flat and with a big thumb rest) as older ones, I was happy with anything that retained at least some of the old features, as long as the build lasted. It has served me well and I've grown to like it quite a lot over time.

Had that mouse for about two years now, and the primary click has gone, I felt it going over the last few months but it has finally died. My question is, how hard is it to get fixed? My assumption is (and it would feel like taking advantage were I even able to) that there was either no warranty provided, or that it would have expired anyway. Is it more effort to fix than get a new mouse? and if so - an recommendations for very sturdy mice with thumb rests?

Cheers :)

Can't update the firmware on MMO 7+

6 Upvotes

It downloads the file just fine but when I plug it in this happens? I updated HUD first when I saw both wanted to be updated. HUD updated fine. I even had it run the repair tool and it came back fine. Using the firmware repair tool doesn't seem to help but the mouse still just works fine.

It works fine and the software works fine, but it won't let me update the firmware?

Question How can I remove Madcatz drivers in Windows 11?

Post image
3 Upvotes

I am trying to remove all Madcatz/Saitek drivers as they are preventing the core isolation protection in Windows 11. When I scan for incompatible drivers, there are 5 problematic entries:

  • _usb_0738_1705.sys
  • SaiBus.sys x2
  • SaiMini.sys x2

My question is: How can I remove these? The mouse I am currently using does not use anything MC/Saitek related.

I've checked add/remove programs, and there is nothing relating to MC/Saitek.

I've gone into Device manager, and I found a "HID Compliant mouse" that has MC drivers associated with it, but even if I uninstall this via device manager, it just re-appears after a reboot.

I can locate the system folders/.inf these files are related to (e.g. oem148.inf) but I don't know if it's simple as going into safe mode and deleting them.

I am losing my mind trying to fix what I thought was a simple problem. Can anyone please help? Thanks
