    Hi, I downloaded blender on my apple mini computer and also downloaded mecabricks, but I wasn’t able to install the mecabricks add on to blender. Why is the reason for that, why can’t I connect the two together?

    Rather than making the light sources super bright, I wou'd really suggest scaling down the models upon importing. Difference might not be obvious but it is really good for more realistic light bounces and other rendering aspects.

Theres the 4 viewport shadings, the wire one, the filled in dot one, and then the two beside it. Those are the two that have no difference, like as in the final render preview shading looks very low quality and cartoony and flat, nothing at all realistic like in the video
