Any plans to support M2/M3 processors without having to load archived versions of 3DConnexion software?

Hello
M2/M3 processors are supported, do you have any problems with them?

[jdbush]

I'll try again. Last time I tried to install the driver package it failed saying unsupported OS. There was some post about the new version doing a OS check and using an old version was the only work around which I did. Actually, now that I think about it, maybe it was 3DConnexion running thru Parallels. The installation in the Windows VM was unsupported requiring an older version that didn't run an OS check.

Sorry, that is the case. It is actually 3DConnexion drivers running on Windows ARM. That is Apple Silicon device running Windows VM thru Parallels which is needed to use 3DConnexion with Autodesk Inventor or other modeling software.

Hi jdbush

Unfortunately we don't support Windows on ARM yet.

Gotcha. Thanks for the info

Tried to run the 3D Connexion software today. Does not run at all.

So tried ot reinstall it, it hangs during installation, with the progress bar at about halfway through. Left it running for 30 minutes LOL nothing finished.

Running:
Macbook Pro Apple M2 Pro 16GB Sonoma 14.6.1

Thanks. I have tried this, I get stuck at the recovery command window:

I enter csrutil disable
The message returns as "this system does not allow changes to security" or something similar. So, it does not disable SIP.

So, no dice. Is this company going to make an installer compatible with Silicon M2 chips soon?

Ok, have you entered a recovery mode to use this command?
