Is there any way to ruin this on MacOS? With MoltenVK or something?

Sorry, no, MoltenVK doesn't do ray-tracing. Please see https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/kajiya/issues/37 for the current kajiya-side issue.

This "car game" is an interesting demo in itself of whats possible with Rust, physx-rs and dolly. Would it be able to run it without ray-tracing?

Mainline of kajiya requires ray tracing, but you could check out Ashley's branch from the linked issue.

I have a working branch here for macOS here: https://github.com/expenses/cornell-mcray/tree/macos (without ray tracing of course).

It doesn't seem to perform super well but the framerate is acceptable (on my macbook) with cargo run --release -- --width 640 --height 480

Oh, I should just mention again that you need ossp-uuid (https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/kajiya/issues/37#issuecomment-1003619713):

To run it you'll need ossp-uuid installed (brew install ossp-uuid) to avoid a note: ld: library not found for -luuid error. This might not work on the M1 macs though (Traverse-Research/hassle-rs#23 (comment)).
