zBrush, 3D Coat & Connexion 3D Mouse

[Aethyr]

Fantastic work on this program and thank you for taking the input devices we artists use in to consideration when programming the native functions and features of this program.

(Yes I also use a 12x12 Wacom Tablet or Razer Copperhead for my other hand)

I am a former user of zBrush who has decided to switch to this platform after I downloaded the trial. It all started the day I was going to the 3D Connexion site to see if I could find generic drivers to get the 3D Mouse to work in zBrush (which I loved but lack support for my input devices). I was on the zBrush forums all day prior to this trying to find a solution. Just when I was about to give up (after finding user made generic drivers which work great for most things but sadly not that great in zBrush) and feel I had to suffer through more restricted keyboard and mouse interactivity, when I saw on the top of the page on 3D Connexions "Supported list" _3D Brush_ which peaked my interests.. seeing as I was willing to spend money to buy the newest version of zBrush to get support for my mouse yet it wasn't there... I figured what the hell right? Give it a shot? So I set out to put it through it's paces... on a 2 hour budget I did the following with the demo and provided mesh with the intent to create a high detail first pass sketch of a zombie with a lot of complex manipulation.

I am so thrilled with this product I had to come here and say Thank you for providing a complete affordable solution that an Indy developer such as myself can purchase without breaking the bank {Edit: I am lucky enough to have found it before the price changes planned.. I hope it doesn't get to much more expensive as I will need to register more as my team grows}
