unreal engine 5.4 support

[jlo]

I tried loading the 5.3 driver but it's not working. It wont even load unreal now saying the TDxUnrealEditor failed to be found.
I created the marketplace and 3dconnexion folder as per prior instructions. I also changed the engine version in the TDxUnrealEditor.uplugin but it was a nogo.
Changing "EnabledByDefault": false, at least allows unreal to load.

Running 3dxware version 10.8.19.3708 (currently up to date)

Hello jlo,

We do not have support for 5.4 yet. You also tried the same work around I would have tried but it seems it will not work. WE are working on another driver and it should support for 5.4

Can you give us an estimate for when the driver will be available?

Thank you!

We have had support available for UE 5.4 available since quite some time but it was available to those enrolled in the Insiders programme.

The plug-in for UE 5.4 is available from the Unreal Engine Marketplace (web page here). It was published today, April 24.

Where can we go to modify the behavior of the Space Navigator inside Unreal Editor 5.4? There is no drill-down in the plugins section for swapping the direction of the moves, I.E: up is down, left is right. Everything is reversed. I have posted in other threads seeking clarification. Thanks for any help.

Hi there. I´ve installed the plugin for 5.4 but i am very unhappy with it.
In 5.3 and versions before my spacemouse worked just fine, without the need of any plugin.
But now, with 5.4 we need a plugin that does not work good?
Let me explain.
When activating the plugin, i cannot click objects and stuff in my viewport with my mouse anymore when just clicking once, i almost always have to click twice, which is very annoying and makes working with unreal horrible.
Can you please fix this issue!!!!
This is also the case on every other machine i´ve installed unreal, so it´s not only related to one system.
Using Windows 10.
Thanks.

Hi crabo0m,

Can you please specify which 3Dconnexion driver do you use?
Please try to enable and disable the 3Dconnexion plugin in the UE.
What kind of mouse do you use?

Sorry for responding late.
I am using the Space Mouse COmpact.
The 3DxWare Version is: 10.8.18.3698
The 3DxWinCore Version is 17.8.18.20768
Still UE5.4

As i´m writing this, i noticed there´s a new version, will try this now.

Also, it would be great if we could activate/deactivate 3Dx easier. Right now, we have to enable/disable the plugin and restart the project, wich can take many hours in some projects. Why not put a button in the TopBar where we can enable/disable it?
I find this very poorly optimized and not very intuitive, regarding the price of the mouse, i would expect more...

I´ve installed the newest driver but i´m still having the same issue in UE5.4.

Just test it by yourself.
Activate the Plugin and fly around in the edite with the spacemouse. Then try to close a window in the editor by clicking the X. You have to click twice.
After trying to close a window (clicking once), try to hold right mouse button within the viewport to turn around, you also have to click twice till the right mouse get´s recognized.
This Problem comes back everytime you fly around with the spacemouse, it´s so annoying, absolutely not enjoyable!!!!!!
