Maxon announced a range of updates last month for its line of products, including Redshift, Cinema 4D and Maxon One. Although the announcement had several noteworthy features, perhaps the biggest was the inclusion of AMD GPU support for Redshift.
After updating to Redshift 3.5.15, now in public beta, “[a]rtists employing the industry’s most powerful biased renderer can now take advantage of select AMD Radeon™ PRO graphics cards’ GPU-accelerated rendering,'' according to the announcement.
As GPU acceleration is a key component to Redshift, which bills itself as the “ world's first fully GPU-accelerated, biased renderer,” providing support for AMD graphics cards enables it to work on a significantly larger number of devices.
Other features included in the update are improved Unreal support for Redshift Material/Cinema4D integration and new materials.
Redshift subscription licenses can be purchased either individually or bundled with other Maxon software.
