3DxNLServer is a utility from 3Dconnexion that enables support for the company's 3D navigation devices (like SpaceMouse, SpaceNavigator, and similar input controllers) on macOS. It acts as a driver and daemon, translating input from 3Dconnexion hardware into compatible commands for professional design, CAD, and 3D software including SketchUp, Cinema 4D, Autodesk applications, and others. Users rely on it to enable six-degrees-of-freedom navigation in modeling and design workflows. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of 3DxNLServer is now available and has been confirmed running on real Macs. Download the latest installer from 3Dconnexion's official macOS driver and software page, which will automatically serve the native Universal Binary on M-series Macs. After installation, your 3Dconnexion device will resume working natively without Rosetta 2, resulting in improved responsiveness and lower system overhead during design work. If you previously installed 3DxNLServer on an Intel-based Mac or an older macOS, simply re-download and reinstall the current version — the package detection will handle the architecture automatically.
