Wing Sweep Controls not functional

I haven't flow the F-14 in a while. When I tried I found that the wing sweep wasn't working. When I checked the bindings I came across what you see in the picture.

No attempt to bind other controls has worked, neither has reloading the control profile or repairing DCS.

The chat functions also have those red symbols.

It's only on the F-14. None of the other aircraft modules have this issue and I have checked the throttle (Thrustmaster Warthog) in Windows and it's working fine.

First hover mouse cursor over the red exclamation mark to read what conflicting bind it shows and try to rebind those.

Also try to make a backup and remove the file %userprofile%\saved games\dcs\config\input\f-14\keyboard\keyboard.diff.lua

I did hover the mouse over the red exclamation mark and no conflict was showing.

I'd suggest to go through both clean and repair (long) process:

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/repair/

Then I'd like you to go to the Saved Games folder in your user profile. The path "%userprofile%\saved games" typed in the windows search will give you the exact location.

Now please rename the DCS folder to something other like DCS.old. This will be your backup.

Run DCS and check if it works properly (bind what you need for testing) - this will be a new profile so you will have to log in and all options will reset.

Hi Draconus, as I've mentioned in my PM, deleting the bindings and then restarting DCS removed the red exclamation marks. When I rebound I saw that, unlike the old bindings (which were button numbers), the new bindings were HAT switch directions. My control profile was very old and Heatblur must have updated their controls profiles and my old bindings were in conflict.

Thank you for your help!
