Andy,

No, I don't believe they require X11.

I'd like to volunteer some time to help you get a port going. I'll send you an email.

Please, please make a Mac version. I've been looking for a good 3D modeler for Mac. And a lot of people over at TW are making some great stuff with AC3D.

I am sick of Ms software and I'm returning to linux as more major software is supporting them, since Macos x is built off of unix I definately plan moving to that platform soon. The mac's hardware limitation is gone they had horrible fsb speeds and such but now you can get like a dual 2 gigz system with 1 gighz bus and on top of that your talking a 64 bit Risc processor and then a OS that can totally use it to it's fullest. And you have the conrtol of unix :shock: I'm definately going Mac real soon.

Ppppppppplease!!! Do it!
I'm new to 3D modeling and I've been told that AC3D is a great tool.
I'd buy it... yesterday

It still needs some work - but I assure you it's happening.

Please do not send email asking when it will be finished - I assure you that you will find out when it's ready.

Is it finished ? :twisted:

Seriously that mac gui is giving it a whole new flavor, looks as they say on the web 'sexy'. I was curious how big of a scene it would run with 8 gigs of pc3200(yes pc memory on mac :twisted

ram ? How's the performance looking in comparision ? I have so many questions can I email them and you post a faq on the announcment forum ?

Excellent. I was just going to ask about this. Hooray for the Search feature.

Actually, I'm surprised that you can't just recompile the Linux/X11 version for Darwin/OSX. Panther comes with a great X11 server already, and tcl, I believe.

Andy, you are the consummate programmer... from Amiga to OS X with stops in between for Windoze and Linux. Bravo!
