Hello everyone! I see i am not the only one who have that problem! This problem occurs when i am playing online game with friends, when i run the game for the first time i can see my joystick into CONFIGURE/CONTROLLER menu i can edit everything before joining a game, once i am logged inside a game my joystick still works... BUT, if i take one helicopter and i die with it (Crash or anything else) once i respawn my joystick is not working anymore, if i go back to the settings menu (Configure/Controller) the list is empty! My joystick just disapeared from it for an unknow reason. Things that i have done: - Plugged joystick into another USB port. - Stopped WINDOWS from closing usb ports for energy saving. - Unplugged other joystick like XBOX wireless controller for PC. - Unplugged audio headset. - Unplugged all other USB devices except MOUSE and KEYBOARD. - Checked integrity of game with STEAM. No change at all! Everytime i die, i respawn with my de-activated joystick... Closing the game and restarting it will fix that, but that is so much pain. I have noticed that i got that problem since i have purchased and installed the Arma 3 Helicopters DLC package, im playing Arma since a long time and my 15 year old joystick always did the job without failure before, so i have de-activated that DLC and since that the problem has been SOLVED! FIX: Go in your STEAM library (if you are using STEAM) click on ARMA 3 and remove the checkbox ARMA 3 HELICOPTERS DLC. This will fix your joystick disapearance but you will not be able to use new helicopters and all features from that DLC.
