Hi voomer

Thank you for posting here. I believe many Lightwave/3D mice users will appreciate this information.

Heya,
Here is a spaceball driver from tmproductions for lightwave that is compatible with Space navigator.

It won't work for me at all (I only tried it in Layout, I figured it wouldn't work in Modeler anyway). I'm not sure why it won't work, I followed the instructions and the driver is working properly.

The TM Productions' plug-in does work on the other hand, and rather well too, with the exception of one bug (when one tries to use the left function key of the SpaceNavigator).

Hi voomer,

Did you report the problem to the editor of the solution for lightwave? If yes, what was their response?

3Dconnexion did not write (and, therefore, cannot support) that plug-in.

That plugins was written in 2002.6 years old plugin. probably a dead way to ask him to write a new plugin for version 9.xx with support of Modeler too.The whole core of Lightwave been changed from version 9.

Did you get in touch with the Trueart guys?("If you're 3rd party developer that wish to write Space Navigator driver please contact with us for more informations about license price (it will be with the full CameraMan source code, illustrating how to use this technology in practice").So what was their response?

We'd love to and we're trying to get it. You can help to make it happen. Send a note to Luxology and tell them how cool it would be to have support for 3D mice in Modo for Windows and Mac.

An application editor investment in time for a particular feature is proportional to the number of individual customers asking for it.

Every little helps. The more customers request NewTek for 3D mouse support in LightWave, the more leverage there is to make it happen. That's true for any application.

just imaging if wacom tablets would only work in programs that explicitly supported them. It would be horrible, no one would ever use wacom tablets because programmers "saw no use" for them.
