3Dconnexion Forum

found it... the file I downloaded (from this site) was mapping to my trackball instead of the 3DConnexion. Sorry for the wasted bandwidth.

OK... this is weird. Using the latest drivers, on a PPC Quad G5 Mac running 10.5.2, with 8 gigs RAM I get this: The test programs within system prefs work just fine. That means that the hardware is seen and is communicating. But - nothing- else will respond. Not QuickTime; not GoogleEarth; not D2-dx...

OK... I'll let this go shortly... but I'm offering this from the perspective of a commercial programmer with 30 years of experience: it's not "one" file... it's -all the files of one particular type of file from one particular vendor.- Panoramas can be stitched together from a multitude of...

Well, having found the problem (one third-party company's particular cubic panoramas) wouldn't the solution as far as you're concerned be to use a different panorama as your demo? And, if you're feeling generous, point out to them that they've doing something wrong in the setup of their cubics that ...

Thanks... I was beginning to feel like the Lone Ranger...

Actually, I am a long-time QT developer... I believe that it’s the default settings of “Pano2QTVR pro” which was used to make the movie. I went to their website, www.pano2qtvr.com and discovered that -none- of their sample QTVR -cubics- will work properly, although their simple panoramas do. So it’s...

Well, here's the results, and I'm afraid you're not going to be pleased with them: it appears to be your movie. I removed all the QT extensions (plugins) and rebooted. Nope: same thing - yours won't run unless I click on another one first. Quitting QuickTime is sufficient to invoke this issue. Doubl...

Well, this is interesting. If I run a different QTVR first (an old one from 2003) that one works fine. Next I go to your demo QTVR and try it. It works. (Whee!) Here's the interesting part: Next I run your box demo. It works. Go back to your QTVR demo.... and it doesn't work! Back to the top: run my...

Thanks for your prompt help! :-) Version: 1.02 QT component: 1.02 console log: remains empty. status the same: two of the demos work fine; QTVR has no response at all. System log; crash log are clean. it's as if something on my system is "firewalling" QTVR only. Next, I'll try unplugging U...

... and apparently I'm the only one, eh? The other demo, and the axis numbers are working fine, but qtvr simply won't respond. 10.4.9 PPC Quad (and yes, the machine has been rebooted.)
