This is great! - is there mac and pc render nodes available? Or is it still one way Mac using PC's for node rather than mac to mac or PC to mac?

Hey Beppe

please hurry up with mac render nodes, as there are now coming up machines with M5 Pro/Max which could be worth for node rendering.

So far release 2025.1.7.2 is rock solid! Wow! No crash just stable rendering. Octane never felt like this before.

And it would be very great to have similar for all the expensive MacPros Intel with AMD Graphics...maybe it is just a dream

Thank you Chris for the great work, you are the gamechanger!

Totally agree.. mac render nodes would be awesome even to backup a fast PC.
or string a few macs together into a render farm…

Another +1 on the Mac Render Node app - that would be very helpful.

That’s awesome, Been waiting for Octane X for a while excited to see how it performs. Does anyone know if it runs smoothly on older Mac models?
