The Glorious Model O software comes with an in-built macro editor. The software allows you to create your own custom macros for gaming and quality of life improvements. Macros created in the software can be assigned to any button on your Glorious Model O mouse.
1. Start by opening the Macro Editor in the Glorious Model O software. You can find this to the left of the mouse preview.
The macro editor window will open in the foreground. The interface is separated into two sections side by side. The macro list can be found on the left, along with the buttons to delete and create new macros. On the right of the interface is the key list and the macro settings. The key list contains all of the events that make up the macro.
2. Create a macro by pressing the “New Macro” button at the bottom of the window. You will be prompted to give the macro a name. Spaces aren’t permitted in the macro name, however, you can use underscores as a replacement.
3. The next step is to create a macro script. There are two methods that can be used. The first option allows you to record your keyboard inputs to create the macro. Mouse inputs are not recorded when using this method.
You can record a macro by pressing the “Start record” button. The same button can then be used to end the recording.
Alternatively, you can create a macro by manually inserting the events to make the script. You can insert an event using the “Insert event” drop menu. This method allows you to add mouse clicks to the macro. When adding a keystroke event, you will need to enter your desired action.
Delays will automatically be added regardless of the method used. You can prevent this by unchecking the “Automatic insert delay” option.
4. The macro script will be created in the key list. You can select an event and either modify or delete it using the buttons below. It is also possible to edit an action or delay by double-clicking it. All changes made to the macro will automatically be saved.
5. Next you need to select a cycle option. These control how the macro is played, allowing you to repeat the script.
- The key released option will replay the macro while the selected button is held.
- The until any key pressed option works like an on/off switch. The macro will be activated with a single click, and will replay until another mouse button is activated.
- Specific cycle times allow you to choose the exact number of times you want the macro script to play. By default it will be set to one.
6. Once you have completed your macro script you will need to add it to your mouse. Close the macro editor and choose a mouse button to bind the macro to. When you click on the drop menu you will see a list of different functions, choose “Macro”.
7. Finally select the macro from the list then press ok. Apply your changes in the bottom right corner. This will confirm your macro bind and save it to your profile.
The left button on the Model O can not be remapped. This is a safety measure to ensure you never lose the ability to use your mouse. However, this can be negated by binding the left click function to another button on your mouse. Once done your left click button will be available to remap.
Making an Autoclicker Macro
An auto clicker macro replays a primary click on repeat. Typically an auto clicker uses the left button function. A common use for an auto click macro is to complete repetitive tasks, or give an advantage when gaming. Auto clickers can help enhance combat in-game by increasing click speed.
1. Begin by opening the Model O macro editor and creating a new macro. You will need to name the macro accordingly.
2. Ensure that the “Automatic insert delay” option is ticked on the right, then select the left button from the “Insert event” drop menu. You can use any key, however, the primary left click is most common.
3. Use the same drop menu to insert a delay event. You will be prompted to set a time delay. The delay will be in milliseconds. This delay will be the time between each click in your auto clicker. The lower the number, the faster your macro will be.
4. Edit the first delay, located between the left button events. You can edit the value by double-clicking on the event. Alternatively, select the delay and press “Modify” near the bottom.
5. Set the delay to either speed up, or slow down the macro. A lower amount will increase the speed. Adjusting either of the delay events will increase or decrease the auto click speed. Be sure not to have the number too low to prevent causing issues.
6. Confirm your value by pressing “Ok”.
7. Next, check the “Cycle until the key released” option from the right side. This will make the auto clicker play while you hold down the selected mouse button. Close the macro editor when finished.
8. The last step is to bind the macro to a button on your mouse. Remapping a button is done via the drop menus in the top left. Select the button you want to remap and choose “macro”. A list of all the created macros will open. Choose the auto clicker and press ok to bind the macro.
Organizing Macro Scripts
The macro editor also allows you to make folders for your scripts. Folders give you the ability to categorize your macros.
Folders can be created by right-clicking on the macro list box and selecting “new macro folder”. You will then be required to name the folder. Unfortunately, existing macro scripts can’t be moved into folders. Macros will need to be created in the respective folder.
Importing and Exporting Macro Scripts
The macros you create in the Glorious Model O software can also be exported and imported. This feature is useful if you’re upgrading to a new computer, or using a different PC.
Select the macro you want to export, right-click it, and choose to export. A file explorer window will open. Choose a location and name for the file. This file will contain your macro and can be imported on a different device.
Another option is to export all of your macros at once. Right click on the macro list box and choose to batch export. Batch exporting will require you to choose a file destination for your macros. Once exported the macros will be located in a folder called “Mac”.
Importing macros can be done individually or as a folder. Right-click on the macro list box and choose to import or batch import. Batch import should only be used to import macro folders. Depending on the option you chose, you will need to either select a folder or mcf file.
Final Thoughts
The Model O macro editor makes script creation easy enough for anyone to learn. Macros take the existing functionality of the Model O to new levels. Once you’re familiar with macro creation you can easily create your own personalized scripts.
