Tks, its funny because I saw a lot of videos on people explaining weird methods to make displacement maps , ranging from getting heights with fancy methods to using plug-ins when in reality, turns out its a lot easier than I expected: Very short video and exactly to the point: https://www.youtube.co...

Even assuming...

On the other hand: I know resources and manpower are already stretched as it is and I really have no idea of the scope of the work needed but (if it was a simple affair) it could be interesting to have a OpenCL BlendLuxCore Mac version for ARM. I do know OpenCL is deprecated in current MacOS and no ...
