Hotkeys Not Working in F1 2014 (or other Codemasters games)

[Teslatic]

I have a strange problem: my main Track IR app, F1 2014, no longer works with the default F12 key to center. I have to alt-tab to the TrackIR app in order for it to work.

If I re-bind to any other *keyboard* key (or combination), there is no change. However, if I re-bind to a mouse button (like button 4), it does work. I want it to work (again) with the keyboard.

Things I've tried:

1. Uninstalling+Reinstalling TrackIR 5.2.200
2. Uninstalling+Reinstalling F1 2014.
3. Uninstalled all Virus, Firewall, etc.
4. Tried other games (DCS, Wings of Prey), and they work fine with F12. However, other Codemasters games (such as Grid: Autosport) behave like F1 2014.
5. Tried other keyboard assignments, no luck.
6. Tried both with trap on/off.
7. Verified that I'm running with the exclusive profile.
8. Forced TrackIR, and F1 2014 to administrator mode.

None of these things worked. Only mapping to a mouse button works.

Any ideas?

Teslatic,

I have a bunch of CM games and I will test this out tonight. I want to know if I can replicate the issue, and on which games. Then I may be able to find a proper solution.

Great, thanks!

Teslatic,

I must apologize, I had a failure on my PC that prevented me from testing this yet. I am up and running now and will test it over the weekend. Has your situation changed at all or are you still experiencing the hotkey failure?

No worries. Still seeing the problem though. Please let me know if you're ever able to reproduce it. Thanks!
