MacOS – El Capitan incompatible with Mad Catz Editor

macosmouse

I upgraded my Macbook Pro to OSX 10.11 El Capitan but sadly the mapping software for my Mad Catz Mouse (M.M.O.7) does not start anymore.

The result is that I have a lot of hovering problem (hover event does not fire anymore) and shortcuts macros do not work at all.

Does anyone have a workaround ?

I contacted the Mad Catz team via Facebook and Twitter 2 days ago and I still have no answer.

Best Answer

I'm having the same issue, in a chat with Madcatz support they stated to come up with a new driver by end of this year - still a bit to suffer unfortunately.

Installing USB overdrive and controller mate are too much for me to achieve a little bump in functionality.
