Vericut V9.0 and Spacepilot issue

I can't make work my 'support discontinued' 3Dconnexion SpacePilot with Vericut 9.0 (I have no issue with V8.2.2 though)

Is there a known way to fix that?

I called CGtech support and it seems it doesn't work anymore with old 3D Connexion drivers (10.4.xx and older).

Problem is last drivers doesn't work with legacy spacePilot...

We had the same problem with our discontinued SpaceExplorer. I updated to the latest driver for it from 3dconnexion and it worked, you may have to check their archives to find the older drivers.

SpaceExplorer is probably more recent than SpacePilot. As I said above mine doesn't work at all with last drivers (10.5 or 10.6) in Windows 7. Last official release is 3.16 however it works OK until 10.4.10 release (except with Vericut of course...)

You can exchange your ancient SpacePilot at 3Dconnexion for a recent device.
We have done so at the time they were no longer officially supported.

Hi,

we had the same problem with our SpaceExplorer USB. The latest available Version (10.6.4)  does not recognize it and the latest Version that supports it officially (10.4.3) is not supported by Vericut 9.

For future reference: Version 10.5.15 does work for us.

I did not test 10.6.0

Best regards

I tried a 10.5 major release with SpacePilot but it didn't work neither.
I don't remember minor release number i tried so i will retry 10.5.15. Anyway for now I went back to Vericut 8.2.2.3 for this issue and some others...
