Romans
Expert

In this post: https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Getting-started/Archicad-27/ta-p/378760

it is stated:
"Create real-time visualizations more comfortably with the revamped Archicad - Enscape connection
even on the macOS platform."
Where is it? When will it be finally available?
Thank.
Kind Regards

@Romans I was wondering this too, so I went digging. 

Found this article on the Enscape website.

 

When I downloaded the free trial, it' gave me the MacOS plug-in files for Archicad 25 - 27.

This is then brand new information.

Unfortunately, Macs based on Intel chips (CPU) are off the table (see system requirements). 

I guess the majority of Archicad users on Macs are still using machines with this Intel-based hardware...

The Pro-lines have good discreet GPUs, but Chaos did obviously decide the render these useless if you consider to opt for Enscape real-time viz.

Nice for you. 

How many Mac users do you think are lucky enough to work on ARM hardware already?
Why should I recycle my very good Intel Macs?

Hi Romans, I totally agree with you! 
I have an IPad 2 that is perfectly running and still holding batteries…but there is no OS update available to install current apps….

But that is rather an Apple issue than the problem of a software provider.
