tacticalsloth 11 Posted July 11, 2016 so basically, I can't switch weapons using the action menu, and have to use the numbers on the numpad. I jut don't have to option to switch weapons using my action menu, these options don't appear at all. It has been this way since I started playing the apex sneak peak preview. but it remains the same even if when I'm using the NONE version, or the game with the apex update on it. thanks for the help guys 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KokaKolaA3 394 Posted July 11, 2016 Its not a bug! If you want to switch the controls to the old controls just go to: configure>controls>preset or something>select Arma 3 vanilla or standard or what ever its called, you'll find it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenfist 1863 Posted July 11, 2016 Its not a bug! If you want to switch the controls to the old controls just go to: configure>controls>preset or something>select Arma 3 vanilla or standard or what ever its called, you'll find it No need to reset all your controls! Just remove the weapon selection binds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Players have to guess... you should read the development branch changelog, or follow Arma 3 on twitter @ Arma3official And if you start your launcher, have a look into the Spotrep: Added: A new default controls preset (Arma 3 Apex) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted July 12, 2016 This default was added months ago. I hated it at first, but have gotten used to using 123 for my weapons now instead of incessant scrolling and misclicking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pierremgi 4906 Posted July 12, 2016 you should read the development branch changelog, or follow Arma 3 on twitter @ Arma3official And if you start your launcher, have a look into the Spotrep: Added: A new default controls preset (Arma 3 Apex) I must admit sometimes, I don't read all spotrep sitrep in depth. Just because it's not my native language and i prefer to play Arma... like some others i presume. Fortunately, i missed this "issue" just because i denied the new Apex key binding. I guessed it could be a lot of work to re-adjust all my keys. I'm left handed and I have to live in this right handed world. Btw, BI made an effort to add key binding for camera editor... but that doesn't work for up / down / left / right arrows. I don't now why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackal326 1182 Posted July 12, 2016 The first time I started ArmA3 after the APEX update/release I was presented with the usual "Update splash screen" detailing what the expansion added etc. Upon closing this I was informed of the new control presets and given the option to select one. However, I was also given the very discreet option to simply cancel out of the popup and effectively make no changes to my controls at all. Just do that and your controls wont be fucked up. This doesn't fix the issue for those who have already experienced the issue - KokaKolaA3's solution should do that. My solution simply stops the issue from occurring in the first place :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
