Hey mate, there should be a scroll wheel toggle in settings. Go to settings-controls-equipment-and the. Weapon cycle Hope this helps!

scroll wheel is enabled already for up and down to switch weapons, the problem is it randomly stopped working mid tdm it works to scroll out of valorant and in valorants settings it just randomly stopped for my weapons

Ok after you double check that this is on, head into the range and test it again. I would say it's the mouse but if it works in the menu etc I'm not 100 percent sure

restarted pc worked for a moment then went back to not working for it i turn raw input buffer off and it works fine obviously not good to keep that off though so im not resorting to that

hmm interesting. saw raw input buffer brings it straight from your mouse. turn it off and it goes from the system. strange stuff. So often times people say not to use scroll wheel as its inconsistent in high stress situations but if it makes you comfortable thats just that. it seems a very small amount of people have the problem and turning off raw input buffer is a reliable fix but as you said its not ideal at all. I know it may be annoying but I have seen some people saying to reset all settings and try it again (make sure to write down anything you want to save) @Anime4 if you don't want to do that I am searching for more solutions

strange. it seems from the small pool of people who do have this problem raw input buffer is the only solution. (or reseting settings but that can lead to other issues) what I would personally suggest due to having less problems, and less complications, is to simply use your keys to change weapons.

may be, still working on it (me using the keys for 4 years XD matter of preference though) ok so its that, or reinstall valorant (might not work) if you really want you can contact riot player tech support and they may have better solutions then I do that is all I can really think of/find solution wise
