maybe theyre waiting for a stable snow leopard before releasing toxik64 ?
or is it this Carbon vs Cocoa stuff?
Do you know if this will be the same for Mudbox?
Wow you guys have really high expectations if you think Autodesk should be coding Toxik to run on an Operating System which isn’t even out of Beta.
Frankly I think your expectations are a bit high IMHO. No offense meant by this but I do think a bit of a reality check is needed.

am speaking Very generally here.. but ive noticed this on all the other forums as well..a lotta high expectations as far as software and toolsets..i would wait for a stable 64bit mac os before even thinking of testing out a complex software like toxik..better to wait than have it crash 50 times a day.
I’ve heard Nuke is stable on OSX.
cheers,

antoine.heard excatly the opposite! 😉
it is stable on OS X, we are talking about 32bit nuke.
the guy working a few office away from me has a happy switch from shake to nuke on a mac running osx, and yes of course we are talking 32bit 😉
But still doing film work and commercials (some @4K with red footage).cheers,
antoine.“with the 64 version coming later.” is a positive thing right?
2 years later?one has to wonder bout apples “support” though.. maybe autodesk can buy em so theyre no support related issues with the hardware 🙂
anyway – i rely on linux – as far as i discovered the best performance for toxik, nuke and shake! 😀
it surely has to do with the fact that they do not want to write a GUI translator to Cocoa (the only way to make 64bit apps with UI). Thanks apple for abolishing 64bit Carbon, they have sent the pro users of the platform into an involuntary 3-4 year delay wrt 64bit software.
One of the things Apple does to piss pro users off.
They are using QT as their gui framework, which at the moment only has a beta version that is 64bit on Mac.
