It has been brought to our attention that older versions of Capture, versions before Capture 2025, might not function well on macOS Tahoe. We have received reports of purple screens replacing various parts of the user interface. These issues were present in versions of Capture 2025 too, specifically those before Capture 2025.1.6. The reason they are not present after Capture 2025.1.6 is that we spent time on adjusting Capture's behaviour in order not to upset macOS Tahoe as a result of behavi...

Apple have just release macOS 26 Tahoe and we are happy to inform everyone that it is officially supported by Capture 2025.1, which runs well on it. For those wondering, we have a routine of trying out the macOS 'developer betas' made available by Apple to software developers ahead of their release. This give us a heads up in the event we need to address any issues before the release. We still need to run a final check on the public release though, in case something crucial changed last minut...

We have just updated our forum platform and given the forums a bit of a face lift. Please let us know if you run into any issues!

We're pleased to announce that Capture has now been certified by 3Dconnexion! As a result, and with the latest 3DxWare 10.8.8 drivers for macOS, all 3Dconnexion devices should now be fully functional with Capture.

We have just released Capture 2025.1, which comes with a few improvements that deserve a little bit more information than what's available in the release notes. Adaptive Quality Capture's adaptive quality visualisation is designed to ensure that the quality of the visualisation is always as high as possible, without sacrificing the frame rate. This is achieved by continuously measuring the time required by the video card for every frame and adjusting the level of detail as necessary. The a...

No, not tears, but rather visual glitches, or seams, between screen updates. It's explained and illustrated well in this Wikipedia article. While tearing can occur in Capture in both Windows and macOS, it is a lot more prevalent on Windows - and particularly after the last Windows update 24H2 in the fall last year. Microsoft made some architectural changes there that hit Capture hard. While we just released Capture 2025, we wanted to let you know that we are currently working on some impro...

While we just released Capture 2025, we wanted to let you know that we are currently working on some improvements for a 2025.1 update that we're hoping to release in the next few weeks. One of these improvements will be support for SketchUp 2025 files and their new PBR material model.

We are planning to remove the support for Cinema 4D import in the near future and would like to hear from you how that would impact your workflows. The reason for removing Cinema 4D import is that it is becoming cumbersome to maintain and we're not very happy with the state it is in. Key shortcomings include lack of PBR material support, only supporting flat and UVW texture mapping and no support for animations. Given that Cinema 4D now has glTF export we would rather spend the development ti...

The latest version of macOS, 15.0 Sequoia, is expected to be released today. We have tested Capture 2024 on macOS Sequoia and we could not find any issues. As such Capture 2024 now officially supports macOS Sequoia and we have updated the download page to reflect this. Having said that, it's always wise to upgrade your OS with caution on mission critical systems. Especially so perhaps if you are also relying on any non-Apple device drivers.

We have just been informed that SoundSwitch 2.9 has been released, with a new option to output Art-Net to 'localhost' (the same computer). There is a new check box in the Hardware tab under Preferences called 'Localhost Art-Net Node' that you need to check if you are running Capture on the same computer as SoundSwitch.
