Crashing on M1 Mac

jaydha97

Ive recently downloaded DazCentral on my M1 Mac, but it crashes everytime i try and so anything. At first even typing in my using name, or pasting my password would crash the app. Is it just not compatible with M1 Macs? If so would trying to run it on parallels be my best bet, or just using a different programme altogether?

Daz Studio itself is certainly not yet compatible with Big Sur, which is the MacOS version you will be using on an M1 machine.

Do you know if it'll run properly with parallels? or if a big sur compatibility update will be coming soon?

I think Parallels has issues with OpenGL support, but if Intel Windows applications run on M1 using Parallels it might work.

We do know that an update for DS is eing worked on, but the only information that has been made public is from the beginning of the year https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/451486/daz-studio-macos-big-sur-compatibility#latest
