It's hard to imagine that providing spacemouse support would be a mind-boggling undertaking. And this request first appeared 6 years ago?? C'mon, guys. Do it and get it over with.
I have found this voting link by accident while looking for something else. I think it would be a much more valid initiative if Reallusion would invite registered iClone users to vote on this issue by email notification than let them find it by accident. In that case, the final number of voters would actually reflect a general community opinion, instead of the opinions of those who somehow found out the issue was being voted. In other words, if I didn't find this voting session by accident, my opinion would never be heard. This feature has been suggested for many years, and every time I start iClone, I STILL automatically put my hand over my 3D mouse, just to realize it is STILL not supported - and I STILL get surprised every time. iClone has come a long way, and introduced some really modern features, but on this point it's still in the stone age of usability.
God save our wrists!
After using the 3dConnexion mouse with SketchUp and Blender it is uncomfortable to go back to the jerky movement in iClone products. Wise up guys! Bellatrix speaks for all of us. 3DConnexion would be the most used "add on" to iClone.
This is evidently not a subjective request... 3Dconnexion support has been requested repeatedly on iClone forums. Starting 6 years ago. http://forum.reallusion.com/Topic62566-87-1.aspx Most recent. http://forum.reallusion.com/254358/ADDONS-PLUGINS-Wanted-3DCONNEXION IClone's 3Dconnexion capability is gossiped about on many forums. Logitech acquired 3DConnexion for good reason: open Sandbox gamers LOVE 3D mouse. The starter version is CHEAPER than high end game mouse. It is now a common, standard 6DOF hardware controller It frees up the mouse hand/wrist and reduce up to 70% of redundant clicks (!!!) Speed and wrist saving is a BIG DEAL to non-leisure CG users, even gamers Many current gen CG tool frequent travellers check if 3D mouse is supported before signing up! Unity5, Cryengine has 3Dconnexion. Unreal4 finally got their 3Dconnexion recently after feverish petitions. 3Dconnexion support is the most requested item on Realtime architecture visualization tools forum, Lumion, LumenRT, TwinMotion. (an opportunity for RL) Be ahead in the realtime viz game...or at least Stay relevant and current among popular visualization tools. Most DCC or Scene Layout tools ship with 3Dconnexion out of the box. 3D mouse will attract/ ease orientation shock for these tool users jumping on the iClone train: Easier transition for users coming from peer/ prosumer tools Daz Studio and Poser. Big attractor for users from Maya, 3dsMax, Blender, Sketchup, Lightwave, Modo, C4D, Cryeditor, Photoshop, Adobe (and 100+ other CG/DCC tools) Big attractor for users from Unity5, UE4, Cryengine (frequent complaint = total click count) Another big bonus of 3Dconnexion is fast, easy, smooth camera animation. 3Dconnexion could help sell more iClone Make iClone more fun and intuitive to use (and make iClone look and feel more current gen).
