I have an M1 Max MacBook Pro running Sonoma. Both Poser 13 and Daz 4.22 work fine. 

The Mac version of Poser 13 was released in August 2023 and supports SuperFly rendering with the Metal API. Just select the GPU option in the Render Settings dialog box. If you have an M3 you won't be disappointed with the render speed. More info about the Mac update for Poser 13 here:

I have Daz installed but rarely use it. However the NVIDIA Iray viewport option works fine for me.

Let me know if you have any other Mac questions. Happy to help if I can.

D'oh! I missed the deadline by 30 minutes (I live in another time zone.)

Thought I'd post it here rather than let it gather digital dust on my hard drive...

Hey Paul,

I've been running Poser 11 (and Poser 12) on my Macbook Pro M1 Max for the past 7 months. Haven't had any issues so far. You should be fine on an M1 Mac Mini :)

I'm running both Poser 11 and Poser 12 on my 2017 Intel iMac with Big Sur (11.6.1) and my M1 Max MacBook Pro with Monterey (12.0.1). I can confirm both versions of Poser run super smooth on both operating systems.

What @an0malaus said about multiple displays is true. If I'm using Poser 12 on my primary iMac display the rendering progress dialog box sometimes appears on my second display. Same with the 'Image Source' dialog box on the Image Map node in the Material room. These are minor inconveniences in my workflow. Otherwise I'm really enjoying the stability and speed of Poser 12 on Mac.

PS. Rendering with Adaptive Sampling in Poser 12 is noticeably faster on the M1 Max. I can only imagine how fast it will be if/when we get Metal support!

I'm running Poser 12 and Poser 11 (with DSON Importer) on an M1 MacBook Pro with Monterey 12.0.1. Both work absolutely fine.
