I Started Using Blender on M1 Pro MacBook Pro

- I've started using Blender on the M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Here are two things people were right about when using blender for the first time. Don't use too many vertices. There's no reason to make the render harder than it needs to be. Also, get a mouse. It makes navigating in Blender that much easier compared to the trackpad.

i was learned blender for 2 months, the first month everything went well, entering the second month, bringing a little more knowledge and skills in making 3D animation, I started thinking about upgrading my PC 😂 but of course it's time to save money while being more patient when learning new things in blender 😁
Nice to see brothers out here in the tech and art space
Depending on how good your laptop or pc is, if you're using the subdivision surface modifier, I suggest you keep the levels viewport slider lower, while keeping the render levels slider higher. This should ensure that you have a lag free workspace to work with, and won't drastically affect render time.
Keep up the good work 👏🏻
appreciate it!!
what are your macbook specs?
Blender is going slow for me after a while. I don't want to get a new PC but I feel it's a must
What’s the PC specs blender is going slow on?
I first discovered Blender i think version 2.0a from a book not sure at a bookstore or local library, the software was included. I think around 2001. Riva TNT2 wasn't entirely happy with it once you start pushing the vertex count, but Geforce 2mx was a massive improvement. Then i participated in the crowdfunding campaign in 2004 to buy back the software from the investors and release it as open source. I scored a free computer from a dumpster which was pretty powerful, Athlon 750 released just months prior - PSU was dead and very smelly (Codegen or Chieftech 420) and killed the graphics card (Rage3d, no major loss), optical and hard drives, but mainboard, RAM and CPU survived! Fitted a nice FSP 350 power supply, an ELSA TNT2 i already had, a little old, a fresh Maxtor DM80 hard disk, 80GB, and some beat-up optical drives, and i was all set. That was the computer i learned Blender on. Scored a barely used Mitsubishi DiamondPro monitor as well, not sure what size, 20" or so.
Blender was such a comparatively simple software back then. I had a little experience with trueSpace and Max. trueSpace was junk, and Max was cumbersome. Blender was such a revelation.
Hi, is mac good with rendering in Blender? Thank you
From my experience, it’s time consuming, but for starting out it’s alright. In my case (I’ve got a MacBook Pro) I’m rendering a 13sec animation for 12hours. Might change some settings in cycles, that makes much of a difference.
So at the start I would say work with what u got, and if u see limitations, u still can upgrade the pc ur working with.
please let me know which macbook pro do you have? i'm planning to get a macbook pro to use blender, do you have a m1 prossesor? or m2?

As he doesn’t seem to have given an answer yet - as someone wanting to upgrade pc to Mac book - can some recommend a decent spec pls 😊

Which laptop should I buy for my requirements if I want an all-rounder laptop where i will be able to explore all parts of development (Android , software, AI, ML), Cybersecurity. Also 3d modeling software like Blender. I've never done gaming before but can consider it. Please recommend a few laptops under or about INR 70K.
I've considered dell g15 5520 and Acer Nitro 5 both i5 12500H rtx 3050 512 ssd, which one would be good for a blender beginner but will also support my other requirements.
What monitor are you using?
How quick are the render times on your MacBook there?
His right, This was my first mistake using blender. GET A MOUSE!!!!
Mac or windows better for blender? Huh
Obviously windows with dedicated GPUs are more powerful for these graphics intensive tasks.
Do i need to use a MacBook or laptop for blender ?
Build pc
Bro can you tell me how to up blender?
Pls I need it tomorrow to my school
Funny that you have the donut open. I followed the famous donut tutorial series and tried to finally render my animation but even rendering 1 pic with the final sample settings got my gpu (10 GPU on a MC air M2) full. Now when I try to render a pic again it only shows my compositions 🥹 I’m crying my eyes out, not kidding. How tf do I fix this and what is a mac even capable of if 2000 samples is already way too much 😭
There's sooo little support for M2 right now, I'm sorry friend, it's going to be a bit of a wait until companies catch up on patching for M2. Are you running it via Rosetta? An option would be to bring the project file to another computer for rendering until M2 has more support
@@Madelope thank you, I actually did render on a different computer. Can you tell me where I see the latest news about patches etc. ?
you rarely ever need 2000 samples, just enable denoising
Is this the 16 ram or the 32
The famous donut lol idk u but ig ur tryna learn 3D? I kindly ask, what is your goal?
Can M1 air render in Blender?
Did u get it
@@milkyway6094yes, it can render small stuffs, not professionally.
Mantaflow simulator won’t work on my 14 MBP ! Any ideas or work around?
I’m not sure but maybe someone will see your question and chime in
How do switch from object mode to edit mode on the MacBook?
Hit tab (shortcut). Or the option is in the top left corner
tab
how is using blender on a mac?
So far so good. I just started Blender and have been following tutorials. No freezes, crashes or lags thus far. I'm shocked this laptop isn't getting warm at all while doing something like this while laying on bed sheets. Keep a lookout for upcoming shorts about its performance on this mac and useful tips I've learned.
@@visionarywatts Im using a MacBook and I have trouble zooming into what I’m doing. Any solutions for this besides using a mouse? I have purchased a Magic Mouse but there’s not scroll on it 😅.
@@producerkigoated9546 You can pinch in with two fingers or use the magnifying tool. I'm using the logitech MX mouse for macs
@@producerkigoated9546 Press command and swipe up or down to zoom in or out
@@producerkigoated9546 i rather choose a $15 gaming mouse with scroll rather than buying apple mouse 😅. Can you give me the good side of this mouse?
No body using mouse on MacBook:)

Bro just get a pc .. rtx, ryzen, intel will blow this joke out of the water! I love me a MacBook .. for transferring photos 😂 ps: I do own a MacBook Air m3.
Getting a Mouse???? Omg the worst advise for blender users ever. Blender is MADE for NOT using a mouse.. I mean, there’s shortcut for EVERY SINGLE THING and I work with just my touch pad and keyboard. That accelerates my work process and work flow, nothing I could’ve been achieved using a mouse..
Jizz..
I’m glad you got that off your chest 😂
🤣🤣🤣@@visionarywatts
U need a mouse or graphics tablet how the hell do you move things comfortably
Get windows
Got it on two desktops 👍
apple mouse hahahah
Don't use mac
Ah, the ole donut tutorial. It’s a must 🤌🏼
PS, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, the juice is worth the squeeze 👌🏼
