Gamepad Camera Control

by that studio in Addons




Release Log:          version 2.0.2:

We’ve taken everything under the hood to the next level. We fully re-worked & optimized the code architecture.
We're excited to announce experimental Linux support! Shall work well, yet needs more testing.
Windows support is extended and completed, now working with the full range of supported gamepads.
macOS continues to be fully supported, with extended compatibility for a few additional gamepads.
The addon is even more lightweight on processing, with faster boot-up and connecting time and is more stable overall. We fixed all the small bug you guys found, and made minor improvements here and there — such as dynamic long-press increments when adjusting speed or navigating timeline from your gamepad.
Keep an eye out for updates. Another big update packed with new features is around the corner.
