Apple silicon support catching onĪn open-source competitor to Maya, Blender, beat Autodesk to the punch with its release of the 2.93.0 update.
Contrasting software in similar industries, like Adobe and Unity, Autodesk’s efforts to enable support for Apple silicon have been publicly ongoing for a while: it announced plans for the change two years ago. Maya is a 3D modelling software chiefly used in game development, film production and visual effects.Īs exciting as the updates are to graphics specialists, the changes have come late to the game. The next day, on March 29, the company also revealed that the 2024 update of its software Maya will bring Apple silicon support in addition to a slew of new features including the LookDevX material editor. The good news didn’t stop there for its subscribers. In the announcement, Autodesk claims that Apple silicon support “can increase overall performance by up to two times” compared to the 2023 version of AutoCAD.
Alongside this change come the expected general performance updates such as automation tools and easier workflows.
