Not working in Cinema 4D 2026 on macOS Tahoe.

Post by Peter Fagerberg »

Has anyone had any luck with getting the SpaceMouse to work in C4D 2026? Works fine in C4D 2025...

The turtle-like pace of 3Dconnexion driver updates is annoying to say the least. Last time we had to wait almost a year before getting support for Apple hardware. Why can't 3Dconnexion work a bit closer with 3D software suppliers and get their drivers up-to-date in time for big releases?

This forum is filled with software problems. The 3Dconnexion hardware is totally amazing, but the software leaves a lot to be desired.

Support for Cinema 4D version 2026 should be in a pre-release driver distributed to members of the Insider programme.

For details of the beta testing programme, see here.

Just downloaded and installed pre-release 10.8.10 (3877) on an Apple M1 Ultra Mac Studio running macOS Tahoe 26.0.1.

I can confirm that revision 3877 of v. 10.8.10 of 3DxWare 10 has the plug-in with support for Cinema 4D version 2026.

You will need to install 10.8.10 after the Cinema 4D 2026 but I believe you have done exactly that. I cannot immediately explain why it wouldn't work for you. I suggest that you provide that information to my colleagues in the Insiders Programme.
