    Hi,

    did anyone try to use the 3D Connexion space navigator (this thing: http://www.3dconnexion.com/products/spacenavigator.html) to control the replay camera? I was hoping that it would "just work", but it doesn't seem to.

    I have a T500 + TH8RS, so that would be the 3rd joystick controller.
    Is there any problem with that?

    You can assign the camera movements to any key, I assume you'd simply need to assign whatever axis it uses, etc... We support 6 controllers, I think...

    Thanks Tim for the reply.

    I tried assigning spacenav axis to camera keys, but when I moved the spacenav to assign, nothing happened, as the movement wasn't recognized.
    Latest spacenav drivers were installed and reinstalled but it didn't work.

    I guess it may need to use joytokey? Switch the axis to be a button input?
