PC - Add Option to disable mouse wheel selecting clubs

  Please please PLEASE add this option.  It's so annoying to accidentally nudge the mouse wheel right before taking the shot and not realize it.  Not sure why this isn't already an option, as there are posts about it dating back several years.  Yes, disabling mouse wheel in Windows is an option... Albeit an ANNOYING one!

  Please make it happen!

  Mousewheel disable

  For anyone who is annoyed by unintentional club changes but doesn't want to disable the functionality entirely, I highly recommend the Logitech M705 Marathon Wireless mouse, which I've used for many years.

  Its scroll wheel has two modes, and there's a button which lets you toggle between them  easily. In the mode I use for WGT, it takes a bit of effort to turn the wheel, and there's a very tactile bump to each step of rotation. Because of that, I'm unlikely to accidentally change clubs, and will clearly feel it if I do.

  (In the other mode, the wheel has almost no friction, and it's possible to scroll extremely quickly through long pages: I have the mouse in that mode 99% of the time.)

  Mousewheel disable

  Scott - the link within the above link  (where it says "if you have AHK installed on your computer, try THIS") does nothing... as far as I can see, it just takes me to this:

  

  Could you tell me what's in the script please?  I could probably work it out, but why do it when you already know what's in there  :)

  Here's a link to where you can view the script Mio.

  Thanks Scott.  I'm glad you managed to decipher my post since it was written incorrectly!  Amended now  :)

  Why isn't this option a part of the game yet?!  Such a simple addition!  PLEASE!!!

  TY Scott for the work around, but I'd rather have an in-game option to do so!

  Okay DJ, thanks.

  It's fortunate for me that you posted here because Pastebin, a site where I have some bits of code hanging out, recently removed one of my posts because of reports of abuse and I had no idea which post it was. They didn't say which one they had removed and when I contacted them, they didn't even reply. Apparently it was the code associated with this thread.
