Unreal Engine might favor Nvidia, but C4D R25.117 runs lean on Metal. Enabling in the viewport does not cripple frame rates. The Ray Tracing preview (for reflections/refractions) uses Apple’s Metal Performance Shaders, offering interactivity that rivals Windows RTX cards in basic scenes.
Designers combine C4D’s procedural modeling with external render engines to produce hyper-realistic interiors and structural concepts.
This ensures the viewport is highly responsive and takes full advantage of modern Mac systems. On the development side, a new C++ to Python symbol parser means developers can access more of the MAXON API, laying the groundwork for future innovations.
