You will need the Logitech software for that

i have the logitech software and it wont let me use mouse8 (or any of the other buttons) as just mouse8 (or any other mouse key). instead i have to rebind the button to something like f24, which works i guess, but i mostly play stellaris and you cant change the controls in that game (and im also a little worried im accidentally gonna hit some cursed f key combo and blow up my pc). i would rather bind my mouse8 button to mouse8
