Twilight Render V 2.17 - will it install on Mac Monterey

Post by PRSS » Thu Apr 20, 2023 4:30 pm

Hello all
I have been using Twilight Render since Version-1, on Windows. on my personal desktop.

At the moment I am having a Macbook Pro 15 - mid 2015 model with Core-i7 Processor (4 Cores) & 16 GB DDR3 RAM, and with AMD Radeon R9 M370X 2GB GDDR5, formatted and Mac Monterey installed with latest updates, given to me by my son, who upgraded to Macbook Pro 16 M-1.

1) I wish to install Twilight Render V2.17 on this. Will it install and work correctly?

2) Just a few hours back, I purchased "Fast Forward Denoising" plugin/extension, and have installed it on my Desktop and activated it and it seems to be running fine (Desktop is Core-i7, 32 GB DDR4 RAM, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4 GB VRAM - Windows 7 SP-1 OS). Runs with SketchUP 2021 (Classic License)

3) Will the "Fast Forward Denoising" extension also run correctly on my Macbook Pro mid 2015 with Monterey OS mentioned above? With SketchUP 2021 (Classic License)?

Your Website mentions Mac OSX only.

Thanks in advance,
Regards
PRSS

As far as I know, it should work on that Mac setup PRSS best on SU 2020 or later. Let us know how it goes.

Thank you Fletch, once again.

Good news, thanks PRSS.
The denoiser will run in CPU mode.
