Weird Mouse Issue

[Miccara]

First, I haven't changed anything that I'm aware of, have rebooted, and checked for upgrades on everything.
I jumped into Combined Arms today and out of the blue my mouse does not control the turrets anymore, can't aim at anything. Turret will move with keys but not the mouse. Will not work with any ground vehicle with a movable gun. Mouse works perfectly on everything else including other applications. I just don't get it. Makes it impossible to go out and kill against other Tactical Commanders. Anyone experience this or have a solution. I can't figure it out.

I have the same issue.

I have;

Slow Repaired DCS. No Change.

Uninstalled CA and reinstalled. No Change.

Deleted and reset to default controls in Game Controls Setup for Combined Arms. No Change.

This is the first time I have gone CA for quite a while. I had been using joystick inputs for turret control for a long time but have updated my controller hardware recently and want to go back to Keyboard and mouse for some quick CA action. Everything else works as expected except no mouse axis control? (Mouse buttons work okay.)

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

I restored the mouse defaults in the "General" section (I think). Might have been combined Arms... anyway, it worked for me so I'd would try restoring the mouse defaults again. 

Under every category if need be.

Thanks Miccara,

 

Cleared and reset both Combined Arms and General mouse assignments. - Didn't work. 

I believe resetting back to default refers to 

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Config\Input\Aircrafts\Default\mouse\default.lua

Spoiler

return {

keyCommands = {
{combos = {{key = 'MOUSE_BTN2'}}, down = iCommand_ExplorationStart, name = _('Enable visual recon mode'), category = _('View Cockpit')},
{combos = {{key = 'MOUSE_BTN3'}}, down = iCommandViewTransposeModeOn, up = iCommandViewTransposeModeOff, name = _('Camera transpose mode (press and hold)'), category = _('View Cockpit')},
{down = iCommandCockpitClickModeOnOff,     name = _('Force cursor to show on/off'),    category = _('General')},
},

axisCommands = {
-- mouse axes
{combos = {{key = 'MOUSE_X'}}, action = iCommandPlaneViewHorizontal, name = _('Camera Horizontal View')},
{combos = {{key = 'MOUSE_Y'}}, action = iCommandPlaneViewVertical, name = _('Camera Vertical View')},
{combos = {{key = 'MOUSE_Z'}}, action = iCommandPlaneZoomView, name = _('Camera Zoom View')},
{                               action = iCommandViewRoll, name = _('Camera Roll View')},

{action = iCommandPlaneSelecterHorizontal, name = _('TDC Slew Horizontal (mouse)')},
{action = iCommandPlaneSelecterVertical    , name = _('TDC Slew Vertical (mouse)')},
},
}

 

There is nothing about;

Rotate Turret - a2033cdnil

Turn left/right - a1664cdnil

Turret Elevation - a2034cdnil

 

Looks like a will have to raise a ticket?

 

What is the contents of your default.lua?

Thanks,

Thanks for that Micarra,

I can confirm that the file I have is exactly the same as yours. So reverting to default should have the same behaviour but it does not. Must be something after the loading that is corrupting/overwriting the behaviour.

Thanks again!
