GPU Acceleration Help

Post by sidewalk » Wed Oct 19, 2011 9:02 am

Hi All,

I'm having trouble rendering with GPU acceleration. When the option is activated (from either the Skindigo or Indigo interface), the render seems to freeze just before the first image update occurs. No errors, just no activity. If the option is not activated, the scene renders just fine. See the attached screen shots of both scenarios.

Is my GPU compatible?

Here are my system's specs:
Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Mac Pro 6 Core 2010)
ATI Radeon HD 5770
Indigo 3.0.14
Skindigo 3.0.15
SketchUp 8.0.4810

I'm happy to provide more detailed info if it'd help troubleshoot. Thanks in advance for the help!

GPU acceleration activated. This is the point of freezing.

I may be wrong, but I think all us Mac users with AMD cards are having the same problem.
not sure what progress has been made since I last asked about it, but hopefully it's being worked on.
