V-Ray - OS X system requirements??

V-Ray for SketchUp V-Ray for SketchUp :: General

Hi there

is anybody using macs out there? - just wondering if it works on pre-intel macs or not? (running Leopard)

I can’t find anything on the main site (and asgvis are being a little vague on the subject)

I don’t want to try the demo yet because I’m only just getting to grips with SketchUp (and don’t want to waste the 30 day trial)

thanks

steve

Hi Steve,

You sould able to see your request in the Wishlist section.
VFS isn’t supported under OS x right now.

I suggest you to install XP with Bootcamp.. this is what I do..

Cheers

cheers Tom

that’s a bit of a bind - I don’t know much about Bootcamp but don’t you have to reboot when you want to use OS X again? A lot of the 3D stuff I do requires 2D graphic work (exhibition stands) and as all my apps are Mac it would be a long winded process swapping back and forth

guess I need to look for another renderer :frowning:

Mac Parallel maybe?

I gave it a try.. but no 3D support under any windows emulation via mac OS (Parallels, vwFusion,..). Bootcamp is the only option.

Indeed Steve, you need to reboot each time…

Usually I do all my 3d model and render under XP then I switch to MAC for the photoshoping.

Sometimes I use Maxwell or Vue6, I got the Mac licences for those one :slight_smile:
