Please help an old fart!
I have the binary installed on a MacPro 5,1 under Sierra, but as soon as I open it - it immediately starts the test on the default settings and the ball scene. It presents a finished score and then sits inert - I cannot see any form of 'control panel'. I am obviously missing 'the bleedin' obvious' so I am seeking appropriate advice?
Thanks in hope!

Re: Luxmark 3.1
So I just get the main process window, shown running here:
! The app is clearly very unstable on my machine, resulting in frequent crashes to the beachball, and a requirement to do a force quit. A subsequent restart of the app will not work until the computer is rebooted.
At least I don't feel quite so stupid now
This gives the result panel:
This time, I did manage to change the image to the microphone in the top tab, and start a new render in the 'Mode' tab. The rendered image had noticeable errors (black spots) and presented a low score. Attempts to select the hotel scene resulted in a stalled condition:!

Sorry - forgot to do the screenshot of the 'spotty' microphone:
and the subsequent score:
FWIWRe: Luxmark 3.1
AMD OpenCL compilers are notoriously bad, they are probably responsible for this.

Re: Luxmark 3.1
On Sierra it doesn't work reliably on my MacBook (Intel Iris Pro & nVidiaGT750M) either, but on High Sierra with nVidia web-drivers installed (better than the native ones) it works.
There is no control panel in LuxMark, every setting is made via top menu bar.
Re: Luxmark 3.1
Thanks for that - it now makes more sense.
I have HS in a second partition so I gave it a go. Luxmark is certainly a lot more stable, BUT it doesn't recognise my second GTX-980 card in Luxmark on the web driver. If I change to the OS driver, I lose the GTX-980 in my other apps and it still doesn't recognise it in Luxmark.
I think at this point I give up!
Thanks for all the advice
cheers
