Embedded Virtual Walkthroughs???

mahammed · Jan 12th 2021

So I've been wondering if anyone has figured out a way to do virtual "point-and-click" walkthroughs through Enscape. Similar to what you would see on some apartment rental websites. Enscape's web standalone feature is unfortunately super clunky on most clients' computers and have bad load times. At the very least does someone know a web plugin that can string together panoramas so clients can freely move from point to point within the building?

SketchUp/Enscape to do the panos and anims and the 3DVista to make the tour using the panos.

mahammed , thanks for your request. Let me know in case this isn't what you're looking for what Paul and Phil above suggested. Marzipano would also be another free example.

Thanks for the help guys, I tried the tools mentioned above. Marzipano ended up being exactly what we needed, and was pretty easy to code into our website. We have a test page set up implementing a few different methods of visual story-telling, all rendered out of Enscape if anyone wants to check it out.

It's still a work in progress:

That's fantastic - I'm happy to hear that! Great tour as well, that was really fast.

Once or if it's finished, feel free to also share your work(s) in our showcase section.

This looks great! We've had similar irks about the web exports. Even though they are so useful in terms of being able to naturally navigate through a space, the performance is much worse than desktop and clients seem to struggle with using them when we aren't meeting in person. I'm contemplating if it'll be worth the time to do something similar to this vs. just linking panorama's with still images in a presentation set.
