  • in my project i am using quite high poly grass patches like enscape objects and scatter spread it onto grass /lawn or meadow/ areas and here it comes unstable ....

    I'm sorry to hear about that - scatter functionality/support should still work fine. If you haven't already, send in a feedback report as described here then and include a link to this thread in the submission form.

  • i sent now two reports ....


    today i had enscape loaded and i did some changes in scatter setting , i mean some minor things and hit regen button /render only checked/

    sketchup just become nonresponsive , so i had to shut it up due task manager .


    scene is very heavy for my GC 1080 ti i can barely move in enscape ....

  • I'm on 2.9. Using high-poly grass, Maxtree trees and plants (extremely high poly counts). Naturally, the scene is slow, even with my 2080Ti, but I don't have all these objects onscreen as I work - use your tags to control this - only turn them on when you need to render, and use the camera functionality in Skatter.

    You are also likely running out of VRAM with a 1080Ti if the scene is so heavy it will barely run - especially rendering high res images.

  • nope i am running about 6 gb of vram , encape did here very good job , i am using enscape objects for high polys and i got checked render only in skatter BUT when i want something change in skatter /density scale etc / when enscape running, i am done and my scene is unresposive and i need to shut it down , ofc i have refresh scene ON maybe this is my problem ofc i am not using camera clipping because i have so many cameras its irelevant for me to setup skatter /i have mutiple skatters in my scene in count 10 / every time before render . But now when i recall whole situation maybe RTX support must be OFF with my 1080 ti ?

    Apologies if English is not your first language, but that is extremely hard to read/make sense of, punctuation would help.

    RTX on/off for the older cards shouldn't make much difference from what I have read, in terms of causing issues. It simply will just do nothing if turned on.

    What are the other specs of your machine? CPU makes a big difference I find - I have dual Xeons and it is much slower in SKP than using my backup rig with an I7 7700k, presumably due to core speed.

    after enscape crash , when i opening skp file again skatter shows many errors with deleted groups ....

    but when i am checking whole setting in skatter there is no deleted groups from my list of hosts ...


    edit : well it seems you did it , no crash after skatter update yet ...

  • for enscape devs : i dont know why but after crash one material in whole scene got another texture from metal texture it change to leaf texture ...


    edit : well after skybox change while enscape running enscape crashed badly , it crash whole sketchup in a blink of the eye

    I'm sorry to hear about that. I hope you are in contact with my support team already regarding this? Through the crash reports and such?
