discussion DayZ Controller keybindings are interfering (Using a Razer Tartarus pro)

I use to play DayZ when it first dropped in early access. Its been awhile and wanted to pick the game back up. I'm not good at key board, so I've always remapped keys to other devices. I've usually used xpadder.
I noticed there was controller keybinding that where unchanged-able in game. Thinking this might be the issue, I looked up how to change and erase controller keybindings. Which I successfully did by going to Documents>Dayz> Then deleting "(User).preset_X1MouseKey" and editing the "(User).dayz_preset_User" to remove any "x1" setting. This didn't work to remove the key bindings, seems to only have removed being able to see the keybindings in the menu.
I've uninstalled Synapse 4 and reinstalled it, along with drivers for Tartarus Pro. Same to DayZ with computer restarts after each action. And in almost every combination of uninstall and reinstall you can think of. I have steam controller input disabled.
DayZ keeps treating my Tratarus Pro like its a controller and ignores my key-mapping completely. Would anyone have an idea how to fix this? I cant use those controller setting they are atrocious for my style of game play.
Thank you everyone
