Rebind KP5 to something else than recenter

[arneh]

I want to use the numeric keypad for the numbers of the up front controller, not for centering view (I use a joystick button for that).
I've unassigned all combinations of KP5 I've found in the controller settings, both in the A10CII Real section, but also in General and UI sections. And then assigned KP5 to UFC key 5. But still, whenever I press KP5 it will still recenter the view (in addition to generating an UFC key 5).

How do I make sure KP5 does NOT recenter the view? It's quite annoying that it recenters the view every time I want to enter number 5 on the UFC.

Check the settings of your headtracking software is my first guess, as you can have conflicts. At least with Opentrack as I use.

Agreed.

 

I use the keypad for entering UFC data and it works just fine (running TrackIR as a head tracker here).

 

Also, I think DCS doesn't allow double-binds on the same key, so if that was the cause, then DCS should show a conflict in the control assignments. So my first guess would be that it's something outside of DCS intercepting the keypress and acting on it.

Thanks for your reply and suggestion.
I use Oculus Rift, and as far as I know that doesn't have any keybindings, it uses its own controllers. Also KP5 doesn't do anything if I run Oculus with any other software, just in DCS. However testing now, DCS does not recenter with KP5 if I don't launch it in Oculus mode... So something in the combination seem to cause this.

Update: Checked a bit more now. In the UI layer in Control settings, "Recenter VR headset" was unassigned. However, when I set it to another key (Scroll lock in my case), then KP5 stopped recentering the view. So it seems "Recenter VR headset" will remain assigned to KP5 until it is assigned to something else. Just unassigning KP5 is not enough.

Huh, that's a weird one! I'm on 2D and can't check on my end.

 

@NineLine @BIGNEWY maybe something you can take a look at?
