Compatibility

What computer, display, and printer you need to run HueForge.

No iPad, iPhone, or Android. HueForge is a desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux only - there is no mobile or tablet version.

Supported platforms

  • Windows 10 / 11
  • macOS 12+ (Intel and Apple Silicon)
  • Linux x64 (AppImage; glibc >= 2.35)

Not supported: Windows 7/8, macOS 11 and earlier, Linux ARM64, and all phones/tablets.

Display

Resolution
Minimum1366x768 effective resolution
RecommendedFull HD (1920x1080) or larger

OS display scaling counts toward "effective" resolution. Below 1366x768 usable desktop area, expect a cramped layout.

Computer requirements

Intel UHD Graphics is the oldest recommended GPU family on Windows and Linux. Some older Intel HD Graphics GPUs may work, but they are very slow and often stall. Newer integrated and discrete GPUs work.

Windows

  • Windows 10 or 11
  • GPU should support DirectX 11/12, Vulkan, or OpenGL 3.3+
  • Crashes/graphics issues: logs + dxdiag.txt

macOS

  • macOS 12-26.x (Intel and Apple Silicon)
  • If your Mac runs 12.4+, it can run HueForge
  • macOS 11 support was removed to stay compatible with newer macOS releases

Linux x64

  • glibc 2.35+
  • GPU should support Vulkan or OpenGL 3.3+.
  • AppImage from the Download page (sign in with your purchase email) (tested on Arch, Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora; minor graphical quirks possible)
  • Vulkan recommended on Linux (and used for the SpotFix blank-view workaround under File > Settings > Model > Render Backend > Vulkan). Most modern desktop distros already include Vulkan; if switching blanks the entire UI, install your distro's Vulkan driver/ICD packages.
  • ARM64 Linux is not supported

Printer requirements

You must be able to pause and swap filament during a print (manual or AMS/MMU/CFS/tool-changer). Test a pause/swap print before buying.

  • Common commands: M600 (default) or M0 if you can still change filament
  • Firmware updates often add pause/swap if missing out of the box
  • Direct drive is highly recommended, not strictly required
  • Auto changers help - you still set filament changes in the slicer from HueForge's workflow

HueForge is not a slicer. You still need Orca, Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer, or similar.
