Unable to Look Around

[Toni Carrera]

Hi,

 

 

I have always been able to look around the cockpit of any plane I am in, or external views, using the Hat Switch on the Joystick of my Warthog setup. Now it has stopped working in the last couple of days

 

 

Despite the fact that the 'View ??? Slow' etc is set to the relevant POV, none of the inputs from the POV are being recognised and I am therefore unable to look around base on the POV. The POV is working when running diagnostics on the device itself

 

 

I totally nuked my 'My Saved Games' for both Nevada and Balkans, neither of which made a difference.

 

 

Note - If I roll the POV quickly 360 degrees, you can just see the slightest graphical twitch.

 

 

Anybody got a theory on this?

If it is at all relevant, I also am unable to look around using the Numeric Keypad

I'm going to suggest that you simply reboot your computer and see if the issue disappears. If that doesn't make any difference try unplugging your joystick and start the sim without it. Then see if the key commands work.

Thanks, I have done both of those steps. Also, the fact that I can't look around using the Numeric Keypad makes me think it is some in game(sim) that is preventing it

You closed out of the sim, unplugged your joystick, restarted the sim with it still unplugged and the numpad still didn't work? That is very odd, indeed. Any mods installed?

Hi,

 

 

Yep, Sim closed, Devices disconnected, Sim Started, Every aircraft, same issue. Unable to look around with keyboard num pad, with numlock on or off.

 

 

I have almost every module and the error, or lack of function, is in everyone

If you haven't already, rename your Saved Games folder and let the sim rebuild it. If that solves the problem, you'll be able to narrow things down from there.

Sounds a little like there might be some input for 'center view' that's always on to me. Do you have any further game controllers connected? A fancy keyboard with a lot of special functions? An accidental bind to mouse input?
