Does the touch pad come with a pen or anything? X_X I sometimes play sro with my wacom tablet and the zoom on that is just moving the pen around =x

Hmm, did you try system > options > set time/set input? I see some zoom options there.

i tried that but thats only the camera settings (like if u want the camera always behind u or at a fixed height point) its not for zoom out

go into your options and change it, and next time please do not make multiple topics, one is just fine.

its ok, by options i mean when you go into the game under options there should be a tab on the hotkeys for everything one should say Zoom In/Out or something like that change that one.

You can use a hotkey program like AutoHotKey to bind keys such as F5 or F6 to mimic the mouse wheel.

You can download it from AutoHotKey.com

I think the lines you need to add to the script are:

F5::Send{WheelUp}
F6::Send{WheelDown}

Everything you need to know about it is on the website or in the documentation. Read the instructions and look at the examples. If it's over your head, then find another solution because I'm too lazy to explain how to use it.
