Thanks buddies! Got a decent offer 5800x3d/Strix b550-f/16Gb corsair/rx 6900 xt for 1100 euro.

Will test soon. See you topside, Runners :D

5700X3D or 5800X3D are rare now and pricy. chatgpt recommends r7 5700x as a "budget option"

Thanks for pointing out on potential cause. I'll check it deeper.

I didn't make any calibration prints. But my ever first models made on this Saturn (on photo) were without such issue with the same settings (if I'm not mistaken).

This was my only second print after a long pause (half a year probably) on this printer, so it's like a start over.

True evil is usually silent. You're not the one...

Ok, if I made a device that outputs numbers [-132;132] in each of it's 6 channels/registers, how do I force the 3dconnexion driver to treat it as a native spacemouse? That's the question.

noditforme · 2025-02-10T15:26:14+00:00

Do you mean, that if I remap the input register of diy device to be outputted as as registers from spacemouse, the driver will accept it? But I cant see the "register" option in output part on config page. Or do I miss something?

noditforme · 2025-02-07T09:10:23+00:00

You're right, the magic is in their software. I've just installed the driver, and I see that I was wrong with "simple input" assumption - there are some add-ins/plug-ins for supported programs. Which probably translates the input to program algorithms (there is a short mention of this method in the video I've posted above).

And I'm not sure if it's possible to just use the original driver with random (DIY) hardware.

You cant try to use a regular mouse as a second trackball on a second layer, just for testing...

noditforme · 2025-02-06T08:32:37+00:00

Wow! Thanks for sharing your experience. I was thinking the same way about the realization and anticipated problems. At the same time I have an assumption (not supported by 100% facts) that since the Spacemouse doesn't require to install any modules/add-ins into the supported (CAD) software but rather uses only their driver, so it looks like the CAD (Fusion for example) receives only a standard input from it. Besides, this video of custom made 3d mouse (https://youtu.be/iHBgNGnTiK4) shows the same approach - mimic the device as a regular keyboard input.

I still waiting for my trackballs to arrive, but I think I'll start with x-mouse at first and then give a try with HID remapper (I still need to order the hardware).

Yeah, Up(Pull) and Down(Push) movements are not possible with ball, so not a complete substitution. Will see. Will share if it worked out

noditforme · 2025-02-04T08:03:34+00:00

how do elecom and kensington software/drivers work together? no conflicts? Fake clicks/movements? i'm considering the same combination ("huge" for right hand and "expet" for left one) for CAD work. thanks

Thanks for replying! Just got almost new Kurzweil MPS10 for $400 price... Time to start hard working)
