Teamwork between M1 macs and Intel?

Maxam

I vaguely remember maybe seeing something about Teamwork not being compatible between new M1 Macs and older intel chip Macs.  Can anyone confirm if we can mix and match client computers when using BIMcloud? Or does everyone working on the project need  to be on M1?

I cannot imagine that it would matter.  At present, the M1 Mac is running exactly the same code as the Intel Mac... emulated Intel via Rosetta 2.  BIMCloud should not be able to distinguish between. the two.

We are using Macs with the M1 and intel macs, on several teamwork projects at our office. 

We have not experienced any problems with this.

Is there a current update on this? 

The download versions for 26 are:

4024 for Silicon and

3001 intel.

 

 

However on intel now my Update lists 4034 as current *note This is a macOS 13 Ventura compatibility update.

 

we work with a correspondent who has upgraded to silicon we are yet to. the issue is build numbers and Bimcloud teamwork file versions and specifically the file been authored on the later version been accessible to us on intel version.
