3dconnexion spacepilot 3d buy or not?

Post by vesa01 »

I have a possibility to buy used spacepilot 3d at a cheap price. I know that it is discontinued product. Do you think it's still worth buying if you can get it cheap. I want to get it work with software like Blender, Rhino 3d and maybe photoshop (latest versions).

Windows, Linux, or Mac?

I dont think you will get it to work under Mac. But both Windows and Linux will work with Blender even without official drivers. (But the lcd will not work)

I have no experience with Rhino or using it with Photoshop. I suspect they will require drivers, and as you noted, that model is no longer supported.

... and you can still download the last available driver for the legacy models from our driver archive. :)
