Zelesouris Keypad not working while Battlefield 4 is running (PC)

★ Novice

I have a Zelesouris Gaming pad (due to the fact i am left handed) which has given me many years of faithful service. 

When out of the Battlefield loader, the Pad gives out all of the correct commands, but once i start BF game Setup page, it immediately stops responding, like it is blocked.

There are no Error messages or invalid key tones, Nada, Nowt, no life at all.

The USB still tones if unplug or plug it in.

Have tried Restart, using a different USB Port.  

It works fine again once i exit the BF game Setup page

 

Is there any way i can get it working again, as my already terrible gaming method has gotten worse Standard smile

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

Will

Does this keypad have third party software for key assignments or is the game supposed to pick\recognize up the hardware alone? Do you have an Xbox controller or flight stick also plugged in when this happens? If so disconnect them and see if the game recognizes the keypad. I've had this kind of peripheral conflict happen with my Razer orbweaver keypad in games like Dark Souls, Dragon Age Inquisition, etc.

Hello @daiekatana 

 

Can you try to disable Origin in-game for Battlefield 4 in game`s properties menu? Let us know how it goes.

 

Cheers,

Sadly the fix was short-lived and it appears i cannot recreate the situation that made it work again. i dont recall doing any untoward action when it suddenlyt stopped responding, Maybe i was shot?
