ProRender Beta

ProRender Beta is a kit that contains the AMD Radeon™ ProRender plug-in for Modo. It’s a GPU renderer that uses OpenCL/Metal compute APIs to perform ray-tracing. The ProRender kit is developed for Windows and macOS and supports both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards.

Note:  NVIDIA graphics cards only work on Windows due to a driver limitation in macOS.

Note:  The current version of the Radeon™ ProRender kit is SDK version 1.35.1.

The kit has a dedicated ProRender Beta layout, where you can access the PView Viewport. To open the ProRender Beta layout, click the ProRender Beta tab on the switcher bar, or in the menu bar, click Layout > Layouts > ProRender Beta.

Note:  To learn more about the controls in the ProRender Beta viewport, see PView Viewport.

Note:  For information on ProRender's preferences, settings, and limitations, see ProRender Settings and Limitations.
