Support for Space Navigator 3D Mouse?

Installed the files from @Maternal. I’m happy that the 3dConnexion SpaceNavigator works excellent under UE4 (v4.11.2)! :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Yes, THANK YOU! for this, I have started to become dependant on my 3d Mouse, It makes navigating so much easier especially if you move between several programs that all seem to use slightly different keys for movement etc. Thank you all for figuring this out and getting it working!

I just wanted to give a massive “thank you” to everybody in this thread that put in the time and effort to make this happen. Seriously, you guys are all rock stars!

Thanks all for your work on this. I was trying to write my own plugin, but then life got in the way, so I’m very happy to see this working.

Also using the methodposted, this also works on 4.12.2 :smiley:

Any updates on this?

We would really like to be able to use 3D mice with unreal.

helloand dear all,

I have problem running 3dx in UE 4.12.13 (in 4.11 works fantastic!)
apparently it needs to be recompiled but - I’m only simple user and don’t know this things :frowning:

CAN YOU HELP ON THIS?
THANKYOU
regards

? I have a problem on 4.12.3 !
Pls see above my post to @Maternal

Can anyone build this for 4.12? Or… Can we get a native plugin?

You can try my binaries for 4.12.

Unzip this to:

%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Epic Games\4.12\Engine\Plugins\

Open up the editor. Go to Edit > Plugins > Input Devices >. Click the check box to enable and restart the Editor. It should work after that assuming you have drivers and such installed for your SpaceMouse already.

Big THANK YOU !!!
it works.
howerver there is small delay of movement from moment when controler is pushe (in any direction) - I wonder if it can be modified?
thank you again :slight_smile:

BUILD FAILED UnrealBuildTool: ERROR: Couldn’t find module rules file for module ‘’. anybody like this ??

Hi,
I tried your files, but does not work in version 4.12.4.
It needs another version of the plugin ?

Nice!

Spacemouse Enterprise working well. The tilt left/right axis isn’t responding, and I had to invert all the axis’ to get it to behave the way I was used to, and I’d prefer to be able to rotate around my target link in Maya, but just having it working is awesome! Very cool, Thanks!

<edit> Can’t start a new project with this installed any more. 4.12.5. </edit>

hi @,

I did try my first game Cooking and I had problem, it didn’t work. At the end of log I found this:

<<Running C:/Program Files/Epic Games/4.12/Engine/Binaries/DotNET/UnrealBuildTool.exe -projectfiles -project=“C:/Users/HyperWorks/Documents/Unreal Projects/xxxxxx2/XXXXXX2.uproject” -game -rocket -progress
Discovering modules, targets and source code for project…
ERROR: Couldn’t find module rules file for module ‘’>>

Can you advice something on this how to correct this error?

Is it possible to connect to the Mac ?

Hey can someone paste the latest working link for the plugin? Version 4.12.5? Thanks for all your work!

2016 still without work,

some suggest??

Hoping for an updated plug-in compatible with current engine 4.13. Thank you for your work :).

I use a space navigator whenever possible in any program that supports it. Would love to see this natively supported in UE.

searching for this plugin for engine 4.13, many thanks

I’ve successfully compiled the plugin for 4.13 for myself. Let me know if you have any issues…
