Answered: Quixel Suite for MAC "Info"

Shanteez

Can we get a little information regarding the release for MAC.
Is it 6 mos out, a year or "NOT GONNA HAPPEN"?

Eric Ramberg

Hi Shanteez!

Its under constant development by dedicated staff so it will happen!
About time frame Im sorry I cant say, simply because I don´t know! I will try to see if I can
get something out from the dev team, an indication of where we´re at!

Being a Mac user myself Im anxiously awaiting it as well!!

Shanteez

Yes my Zbrush license is for Mac only and I have to constantly jump to boot camp to utilize Quixel... It's working, but the workflow is horrible. Thank You, for taking the time to get details about this.

Eric Ramberg

I can imagine I´ll ask and see if Im allowed to get any details regarding the Mac-development. Im very curious myself

Dartist

OH MAN SO EXCITED!!! This news made my day! I really wanted to purchase Quixel Suite but was very disappointed that I could not get it. Day 1 purchase when released!

mastajappa

Any new developmemt? It would also make me the happiest 3d artist in the world, to be able to use it in a mac environment! I am already grateful that it is in the development.

I wouldn't mind it being on Linux but we both know that would never happen in a million years, lol.

Eric Ramberg

Nothing new yet sorry!

JedTheKrampus - As far as I know there are no plans on Linux right now sorry.

Thank you Shanteez for asking this question, and thank you Eric Ramberg for answering!! I am always enthralled with the beautiful work I see on the Quixel site and then completely burned out by scouring the internet for some answer as to if this would ever come to the Mac.
cheers

Eric Ramberg

No worries! I´ll see if I can maybe dig up some progress on this soon!

Update? I work in holistic Mac environment. While I've been waiting for Quixel to make a Mac version, Allegorithmic Substance indy has been keeping the fire burning. Please do take too much more time. Artists use Mac, please support them.

Any word on Quixel for OSX?

Esindesign

Been waiting months on a beta or something of Quixel suite.. You guys have confirmed you were working on a release for us, so please give us some good news

Eric Ramberg

Hi guys! Since suite 2.0 is quite the rebuild from 1.8 we need to do the converson after we've released 2.0 for PC. But as soon as it is out the door then full focus towards OSX!

ArtbyV

Any idea on a time frame?

Eric Ramberg

I honestly don't, the work will commence right after 2.0 is released and will continue until its done. I think that some time after 2.0 is released it becomes a bit more clear. Im a mac user myself so I want it as much as you guys! (They make me use windows here :( )

I'm waiting to see a Mac version.

Synaesthesia

It's on the roadmap!  I've been told that we're 80% done, but there's no ETA. I imagine Megascans will be out first, then we'll port over the Macintosh version!

Dartist

  It's going to be a year soon since the post.... are there any new updates?  Thanks!

Synaesthesia

My last reply is still valid, unfortunately. We'll get it out as soon as we can!  

bauma1lp

Any new updates on the mac release date? You guys are missing out on a huge market share! 

Synaesthesia

We've got someone working on it full-time. When we're ready for it to be released, I'll be sure to post about it here.  

ArtbyV

Was hoping for an announcement at GDC.

bauma1lp

Any update on release date yet? 

Synaesthesia

When it's ready, I'll post about it here. Don't worry.

ArtbyV

I think by the time it's already I'll probably be converted back to PC. Just can't get a Mac with a decent graphics card without springing for a Mac Pro.

bauma1lp

I think by the time its ready they will have put a spacecraft in orbit around jupiter........oh wait

Spencer_Holmes

Any news?

Synaesthesia

No news yet.

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, when there's news to post, I'll be sure to post it!

itchart

It's been another year...No one has posted on this thread.
Is a Mac version still in the offering?

Synaesthesia

It's not being offered until it's done, and it's definitely not done yet. Still being worked on. Unfortunately, our team is quite small and development for non-native systems tends to be a bit slower than we'd like. Hoping for some news by Christmas, but I can't guarantee anything there.
