After a few years using a evaluation version,i bought a commercial licence Rhino 7. I have installed it on my Macbook pro 2020 on , and also running it under Windows with VM-Ware ( because of a plugin D-Loft i need to create Dev-surfaces. Works like a dream… I use a Cloud Zoo to use it at home and at work. But i tried to install it on my work computer (MAC mini 6,1), installation and licence check works perfect. But when i try to open a file or template it imediately crashes…
Please run Rhino’s SystemInfo command on the Mac mini and post the results.
Generally Mac minis are inadequate for Rhino. They do not meet the System Requirements.
Thanks for your reply. How do i run Rhino’s Systeminfo when Rhino crashes immediately at startup? I have run Rhino 5 on this computer for a while and it worked fine…
As John wrote, that’s not really suitable to be using Rhino on. For Windows, we recommend that the minimum VRAM is 4 GB per screen used. I see that we don’t have that same recommendation on the Mac side but, well…
I’m not seeing any macOS information in this overview. Which version are you running? On the Mac side, bugs in the OpenGL implementation are typically fixed in newer versions of the OS. An immediate crash at start-up would indicate an issue with OpenGL. Make sure that you are on the latest macOS.
