To make the release even sweeter, OTOY is offering a free one-year subscription of Octane X Prime and Enterprise exclusively to pro Mac users, and this can be accessed via a separate download. The release is available for all Mac users, and is fully compatible with macOS Big Sur and Apple Silicon. Today, capping off a multi-year engineering effort, OTOY officially releases Octane X, making it available for download on the Mac App Store.
Octane X PR1 was fully compatible with AMD Vega and Navi GPUs across the Mac Pro, iMac Pro, iMac and MacBook Pro product lines. Last summer, the Public Release version 1 of Octane X was released to Mac users running macOS Catalina, and brought the unbiased GPU renderer to millions of Macs powered by Apple’s Metal Graphics API. For years OctaneRender was only available on Nvidia-powered PCs, but Octane X for the Mac was first previewed at WWDC 2019.
Launching way back in 2010, OctaneRender was the world’s first unbiased GPU renderer, and was able to create spectrally correct, realistic 3D imagery in a fraction of the time needed for CPU renderers. Octane X features full pixel parity with OctaneRender 2020, and later, bringing state of the art cinematic rendering natively to macOS for the very first time. Octane X accelerates modern creative workflows with ACES, OCIO and deep pixel EXR rendering, a powerful node-based material, shader and scene graph editor, and the industry’s most advanced production ready AI Denoiser.It’s a big moment for 3D graphic artists who prefer Macs, as OTOY’s Octane X has publicly launched natively on the Mac, bringing unbiased rendering to all Macs that are capable of running macOS Big Sur. This exclusive version of Octane X for the App Store features multi-GPU rendering, network rendering (through an additional Octane Enterprise Render Node license) and Apple M1 native GPU rendering support. Octane X is optimized for maximum rendering performance on AMD Polaris, Vega and Navi GPUs as well as Intel SkyLake GPUs on macOS Big Sur 11.1 and later.
Some introductory material is available on our forum: Octane X is the world’s first and fastest unbiased, spectrally-correct GPU production renderer for macOS, built from the ground up for maximum performance on Apple Metal and Apple Silicon, and empowering artist workflows across visual effects, motion graphics, gaming, design, concept art and architectural visualization.
