VisualARQ for Mac

Do we have some updates on the subject?

Hi @N-Valentin no updates. Due to the amount of work and required resources we are not considering developing VisualARQ for MAC in the short-medium term.

Uh. In the near future I want to shift to Mac because of quality. If I will be able (have to learn some things first), I will help with the development

Would you consider developing a Mac version of VisualARQ3, or would we have to wait for a future release VisualARQ4 ore later.

Hi @user2745 we don’t have plans to develop VisualARQ for MAC in version 3, 4 or 5. Who knows what will happen in the future, but right now we are not considering developing VisualARQ for MAC.

Can you please send a pool to all the users that you have to see if it is maybe worth it to also develop it for Mac? I really really don’t like windows anymore even tho I also have a LandsDesign license. Mac’s generally have a more reliable OS than windows for now and for a bussiness it is a better solution when traveling, syncing work, realtime collaboration and syncronization, more compact, etcetera. Or maybe you can create a crowdfunding and if it reaches the development goal cost, maybe it will be worth developing. Just throwing ideas. Hope I will not annoy you.

since 2015, there’s any news about visualarq for Mac, so, I wonder if it will take much more time…same question for rhino lands…

@Telmo_Freitas I regret to say there are no plans to develop VisualARQ for MAC right now.

well since this is currently scheduled for v9 i guess its one step closer to consider at least?

Rhino 8 is such a smooth experience on M-chipped MacBooks, I would love to have VA make it useful for architecture practice. Will wait on it patiently!

Rhino 9 C++ SDK for Mac was recently made available :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hi Enric, Thanks for your honesty, I absolutely share your vision for VisualARQ, and like you, I really believe in it.
But to truly compete with the big players, without the big budgets, I think the key is community. The software is becoming solid, but what we need now is a much louder choir of voices, more tutorials, more templates, more examples, more everything. Not just four templates, but ten! Not just ten, but a hundred! And why stop there? A thousand sample projects, all .3dm, showing the real power of VisualARQ and Lands Design together, not just nice JPEGs on a portfolio page.
Imagine a learning hub with content from different continents, in metric and imperial, in English, French, German, Spanish, Mandarin, let’s make it global (Not just the website). The more people see themselves reflected in the ecosystem, the faster adoption will grow.
We know Asuni is a small team, and you’re doing great work. But the lack of “hands on deck” can be balanced by more hearts in the game. Let’s light a spark of enthusiasm and watch the fire spread.
We really want VisualARQ to succeed, not just as a complement, but as a true Revit alternative.

Just here bumping that I would would really love VisualARQ for Mac. I don’t really want to have to go back to Windows. Rhino on Mac is a pleasure now.
