I have since OFP "F" binded to switch weapons, so when i had to switch the firemode or the grenade type i would press F, however, in ArmA 3, pressing F wont work, i had to change it to "U".

at first it didn't worked with changin weapons in the choppers, but now its universal, maybe this is related to "W" being always cyclic forward no matter what in the helicopters?

Try to set your controls to defaults. If it wont help, try to delete your profile and create new.

Can you also reproduce this bug in Arma II? It would be very helpful.
Thank you

i did both, no, this problem cannot be reproduced in any other ArmA, like i said, i know this has something to do with the W being always cyclic forward.

PLease send us dxdiag and files from this folder: "C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\Arma 3 Alpha\"

Can you pack the files in winrar and upload it somewhere?
When the *.rar will be smaller than 2.097k, you can attach it here.
Thank you.

Dev build 55.104356

Problem not solved, F used for Prev weapon and Next weapon, any other key works fine.
