I haven’t had any luck anywhere else so I thought I’d try the the very bright and helpful community here at ZBrush Central.

I may be extremely dim witted but so far I have not been able to find a way to work effectively with a Wacom tablet. The program is so sensitive to pen movement that I find I have to switch to a mouse (ugh!). You try to rotate something, or move it and before you know it you’re all over the place.

I’m working with Windows XP in Bryce 5 and can’t seem to find a setting anywhere in the program that let’s me tell it that I’m working with a pen rather than a mouse.

I find it so frustrating that I usually switch to Vue d’Esprit.

Am I missing something or is there no way to work with a pen in Bryce?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

I don’t know anything about Bryce at all, but have your tried the settings for your tablet? Possibly MOUSE MODE would work better then PEN MODE when using a pen in Bryce.

For the most part. I have a few apps that you cannot use a tablet with because there is no tablet support. One is a level editor for real-time 3D game creation.

Still, Bryce should support a tablet.

Dan,

I’ve tried the mouse mode in the past (and just tried it again). It gets rid of the “out of control” situation but it sure isn’t a fun way to work. You’d think Bryce would work easily with tablets, but I think Manitou is right there may be no way to fix it.

I believe Bryce came out of the KPT/Metacreations family originally and a number of KPT filters (at least for the Windows platform) didn’t work worth a hoot with a tablet.

Some other programs have the same problem but you can usually go somewhere in the the preferences section (e.g. in Lightwave) and check a box for tablet support and the behavior is fixed.

I’ll keep checking back here and see if anyone has the magic bullet.

@Brian:

in Bryce you can use the pen for editing the terrain (the part where you can paint this greyscale-map). Don’t try and use the pen OUTSIDE this part of the application!
Most of the “traditional” 3D-modellers are just the same: use your mouse (unless there is EXPLICID support for those pens).
