Space Pilot in Blender 64 bit

Post by bjorf »

Hi.

Does the driver for the Space Pilot work with Blender 2.49 64 bit in Windows 64? I had it working on my last system in 32 bit but can't get it working on a new system. The Space Pilot is working in Rhino, Solid works and Photoshop on this computer so I know that is not the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Space pilot driver in Blender 64-bit

Hi bjorf,

Recently, I ran into this same issue....except I was using Blender 2.49 64-bit in Windows Vista with the Space Explorer.
Manually adding the plug-in to the correct place didn't resolve. I installed the 32-bit version of Blender and added the plug-in and the Space Explorer worked fine. So, I would say there is a problem with the plug-in working with the 64-bit version of Blender.

The add-in was made for Windows Vista 32bit, Windows XP 32bit.
Last updated in 2008. I donot believe a 64 bit add-in was ever released.

Ah, thanks, Fred. That clears that up!
