.63 keyboard not working
Need More Info, NormalPublic

Description

I have only had this twice but I launch DayZ, I go into change server and I can type in the box to do a search but then I get in game and none of my keys work. I even have keys linked to side buttons on my mouse and those do not work either, I have to alt tab out and force the game closed. it just started working last time but this time I can not get it to work. All other steam games work correctly.

Hello theclassifiedrebel and thank you for the report.
Can you try to remove the contents of your C:\Users\*username*\Documents\DayZ folder and let us know if you are still experiencing the issue?

Oh sorry I forgot to post an update on this. After doing some digging I have found that I have to have the discord overlay totally off and everything works fine, even if I launch the game and then turn the overlay on then my keyboard stops working in game. So there is some issue on my pc with dayz and the discord game overlay, I have been in contact with them and they have asked me to try a bunch on things which none have worked. Not sure if you guys might have any input into it or not. Sorry I forgot to update the post..

Thank you for the update.
Do you experience this issue with the discord overlay across all the versions (62, 63 exp, 63 stress test) or only on certain versions?

It is across all builds, they gave me their exp build and the overlay no longer works on DayZ, but that means I can have it on with no issues now. lol

Hello theclassifiedrebel.
Is this still an issue in the 1.0 version?
