| I has a birthday few days ago, and got inundated with gifts - various controllers. What I got (left to right):
1) Logitech Extreme 3D Pro (thanks to my friend) 2) 3D Connexion Space Navigator (thanks to afx) 3) Game Stop Controller for XBox360 (thanks to Antza2)
It seems I need bigger table now
So, I will implement joystick/controller support for the next version. It have even more sense now because of (already) implemented support of Oculus Rift. You can't see you keyboard while in Oculus, so joystick will be better option for control your movement.

| Happy birthday Vladimir!
Quote SpaceEngineer ( ) Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Years ago I went through two of these; they started developing problems where some of the axes stopped working. Hopefully you won't have the same issues I had.
I have the space navigator for netbooks; I'd love to be able to use it with SpaceEngine! It's also good for CAD modeling and Google Earth.

| Happy Birthday!
You have to install the driver for the SpaceNavigator and turn on the blue LEDs, then it looks much more impressive.

| +1 on the Space Navigator control for Space Engine. Once you've used one for Google Earth there's no going back!
Also, try Microsoft's World Wide Telescope program with the XBox controller to get an idea how they implemented it. http://www.worldwidetelescope.org/docs....troller
PS happy birthday!

| I purchased a 3D TV and now working on various steroscopic modes. First are for passive (polarization) displays, verical and horizontal anamorphic stereopairs. You must switch you TV in 3D mode to be able to see this images:
BTW, this first image shows a problem with mouse and selection pointer. They both must be placed in 3D space, on the depth equal to depth of selected object. Otherwise you cannot point your cursor on a star or distant planet.
I also add an option to interlace the image by the engine itself (no need to switch TV in 3D mode). But it is useless on my TV because in 2D mode it have a "sharpness" option that mixes signal from neighbouring rows and columns. This option cannot be switched off, and it completely broken stereo effect (broken separation of left and right channels, so each eye can see double image). I hope that 3D monitors (not TVs) have no problems with this.
EDIT: oops, sorry for jpeg. It may broke separation of left and right channels.
Next step is making anaglyph mode (red-cyan glasses), and shutter type mode (3D vision or so). But I have no display with that technology. My TV supports this mode by converting in the interlaced pair, maybe its quality will be enough.
