In 2010, Razer struck a promotional deal with NCsoft to promote their new Naga gaming mouse, the wireless Naga Epic, by offering a custom experience for the device in the Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) game City of Heroes. This also presented NCsoft with the opportunity for Razer to promote the upcoming City of Heroes game expansion, Going Rogue (Issue 18 - released Aug. 16, 2010).
"For gamers who use the Razer Naga MMO gaming mouse, City of Heroes Going Rogue Complete Collection will fully support the Naga's unique side button layout with an in-game skill interface that allows you to trigger your character's powers with the simple click of the twelve MMO-optimized buttons."[1]
The "custom experience" in City of Heroes was the addition of a new power tray shaped like a 3x4 box to match the 12-button layout on the side of the Naga mouse. From the patch notes dated 2010-08-16:[2]
Razer Naga Mouse Tray - An extra custom power tray can be enabled under Menu -> Options -> Controls -> Mouse.
- This tray is set up to match the layout of the Razer Naga(TM) Expert MMO Gaming Mouse with 11 and 12 used to toggle between trays.
- When this power tray is active, it becomes the default, #, followed by the lowest tray for alt+#
The Razer Naga Mouse Tray has a window name of “razertray”, and can only be opened or closed by toggling the setting in Options--> Controls tab--> Razer Naga Mouse Tray. The shape of the Razer Tray can not be changed, but it can be scaled using /window_scale razertray.[3]
At Homecoming anyone can use the Razer Tray, even if they don't have a Razer Naga MMO mouse. The 12 buttons on the side of the mouse were hardware mapped to the keyboard equivalent of the numbers 1-12, or optionally 1-10 on a number pad. The Razer Synapse 2.0 software could remap those buttons to different keys on a keyboard, and you can still install and use that software today with an old Razer Naga mouse.
