Release of Cheetah3D 8.0 - Native support for Metal and M1, M2 and M3
26. Jan. 2024
I'm pleased to announce the release of Cheetah3D 8.0. This version natively supports Apple Silicon Macs (M1, M2 and M3). So you can expect a nice speedup when working on Apple Silicon. Cheetah3D 8.0 also switches form OpenGL to the Apple Metal 3D API. Cheetah3D 8.0 is therefore free from old legacy (deprecated) frameworks.
Pricing and Availability:
The full version of Cheetah3D 8.0 costs $79. An Upgrade from an older version costs $39.
For customers who purchased Cheetah3D 7.x after Jan. 1st 2021, the Upgrade to v8.0 is free.
