Hot keys won't work in game

[Fish]

Hi
This problem has just arisen, where the center and pause keys wont work inside any 3d game environment. They work fine when testing in the TIR software, but as soon as i enter the 3d world, they don't do anything. Not a profile problem since ive been using the same ones for a very long time without issue.

Did the usual, removed and reinstalled both the software and the drivers. Also tried it with a different keyboard. Also tried it with a new profile. Also note that a mouse mapping works both in and out of the 3d world. I have included an example from one of my profiles below.

Any help welcome.

EDIT
Solved it by installing different drivers.
(not sure if the install or the new drivers did it but will check and post)

Code: Select all

<Hotkey>
    <Name>Center</Name>
    <ActionID>1</ActionID>
    <Key>109</Key>

    <IsDevice>0</IsDevice>
    <DeviceGuid>{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}</DeviceGuid>
    <ButtonID>1</ButtonID>
  </Hotkey>
  <Hotkey>
    <Name>Pause</Name>
    <ActionID>2</ActionID>
    <Key>107</Key>

Is there any update to this? I'm experiencing the same exact issue. I use driver version 5.2.2 and absolutely none of my hotkeys work in either DCS World or Arma 3 no matter whether I run the game or TrackIR as admin or not. I've spent all day swapping around the hotkeys and checking the trap feature and still nothing. I will be going to 5.1 after reading this to test. But something needs to be looked at.

RamboMadCow,

I saw that you posted on another forum thread, and thought we should tie the two together with the current solution.

ShadowPlay through the GeForce Experience is causing a conflict with TrackIR's hotkeys in game. Right now the best solution is to disable ShadowPlay.
