SpaceMouse x Unreal Engine | Environment Timelapse

For me, using a SpaceMouse is a big change forward. The navigation is very fluid. You need to spend some time to modify the buttons and create radial menus for your personal workflow. But once you've done that, you can ditch your keyboard almost 90%+ or completely remove it. Especially if you have the mouse to bind some keys to the buttons and configure the extra radial menu button on the mouse.

Not only it is extremely easy to use to pan around your subject for a better product showcase, but also customizing your bindings for an even better productivity inside your favorite application.

Navigation in Twinmotion and Unreal Engine is incredibly smooth with the SpaceMouse.
I can steadily move my camera from one space to another, making product demo experiences visually better for myself and the viewer.

With the 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse, I can navigate with a single hand in my project, moving the camera and turning it in any direction at the same time without the need of using two hands which is very user friendly.
