Axy and SpaceMouse

Back

Hi there.

Is anybody using 3dconnexion's SpaceMouse Compact with Aximmetry?
I was hoping to get better/smoother Control when positioning e.g. Cameras with that SpaceMouse then with the regular mouse.
But although the SpaceMouse driver recognizes Axy as an App, all I get out of it is simple back/forth travel.
Basically the same as with the regular mouse wheel (just smoother... :-)).

Am I doing something wrong, or are there any plans on supportin SpaceMouse better in the foreseeable future?

Cheers & all the best.

Eric.

Hi,

SpaceMouse isn't directly supported. But we added it to our request list and we will consider adding it in future releases.

Warmest regards,

Looking forward to it

Yes! SpaceMouse support!

@trypnoiz: SpaceMouse is already supported in Unreal, so it’s just controlling the camera in Aximmetry that we need support for.

Can you install SpaceMouse with Unreal 5.03?

Eifert@Aximmetry

Hi Rafaelaz,

We managed to install the plugin without any problem:

Make sure you copied the folder: C:\Program Files\3Dconnexion\3DxWare\3DxUnreal\Plugins\5.0\TDxUnrealEditor
To here: <Epic Games installation>\UE_5.0\Engine\Plugins\Marketplace\
And then run Aximmetry->Install Plugins in Unreal for Aximmetry.

Also, make sure you did the requirements for plugin install, which are listed here: https://aximmetry.com/learn/tutorials/for-aximmetry-de-users-unreal-engine-5/ue5-how-to-install-third-party-code-plugins-for-unreal-editor-for-aximmetry/#prerequisites

Is the SpaceMouse working in the latest version of Axi for camera control?

Eifert@Aximmetry

Hi Magician,

Sadly the SpaceMouse is not yet implemented in Aximmetry. But we have it on our list and are considering adding it in future releases.

Please, do it, Spacemouse is perfect for 3D movement, if we can read XYZ coord and rotations of Spacemouse inside Aximmetry , we can move cameras with it in realtime, and "prerecorded" animation isn't a necessity. I can use Unreal with Spacemouse and see billboards of Aximmetry, canging cameras form Aximmetry but not all options work, and I've to grab unreal viewport to do the output, but this is the more near to use Spacemouse "inside" Aximmetry (not really in Aximmetry, it's controlling from Unreal)

Hi 3dproves,

Please be assured that the SpaceMouse has not been forgotten. It holds a high ranking on our request list, as it was requested by many.

Warmest regards,
