3D Conexxion SpaceNavigator

Andvari

I bought a spacenavigator device some months ago, I never got used to work with it in 3dsmax so I've been using it only on Photoshop ( works great with an intuos )

Now I'm learning Zbrush, I think it would be great to use the spacenavigator to move/rotate the mesh while sculpting with the tablet but sadly the device doesn't work with Zbrush

Anyone knows if there are custom drivers or something to make the spacenavigator work with Zbrush?

Thanks

nope

Yeah gauss got out of these, i tried using it for modo, but NO DRIVERS. Seems they rely on 1st party drivers from the application developer, so you would have to petition pixologic to create drives for you if you want to use it in zbrush. I was pretty disapointed. HAd it working in maya, but that isnt of much use to me

Well it was still worth the investment to control zoom / pan and adjust brush size in photoshop :P. ( unlike when I bought a P5 glove " http://www.mts.net/~kbagnall/p5/p5%20glove.jpg " to animate my characters hands... THAT was a total waste of money :P )

yeah i have the space pilot that i got for free because I demoed it for my school. I only use mine for painting in photoshop. I think this teamed with a cintiq would be very nice.

I got mine on ebay for about usd 40. For the price, even the sexy brushed steel base and the glowing blue ring only were worth the investment :P
