Progress continues, but full compatibility is a ways off.
Here’s the latest update from Foundry on their support for Big Sur and M1 Macs.
The latest macOS version, Big Sur, is not currently supported across our Foundry product portfolio. Our product teams are testing this macOS release and looking to qualify it as soon as possible.
Apple’s new processing hardware Apple silicon including the recently released Apple M1 chip, is due to be reviewed by each product and support will be planned based on the individual review results.
Here is the latest status of supported macOS versions across our Foundry products:
| Product | macOS Catalina (10.15) | macOS Big Sur (11.0) | Apple M1 Chips |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nuke family | 12.1v1 onwards | 13.0v1 onwards | Not supported |
| Modo | 13.2v1 onwards | 15.0v1 onwards | Not supported (in testing) |
| Colorway | 3.1v1 onwards | Not supported (in testing) | Not supported |
| Mari | 4.6v3 onwards | Not supported | Not supported |
| Flix | 6.3.6 onwards | Not supported | Not supported |
