The title pretty much explains it. The materials I've been using for quite a while now for the various grasses, do not render now in 3.0. Is there a toggle for rendering grass now in the settings? I was looking for one and did not see any.

I had the same issue with a bmp that I was using to show a "cut" pattern on the lawn. As a check, switch the material in the grass you are having issues with to be just a color. I did that and the material worked fine. I have had an issue with Enscape "grass" taking a bitmap as the color also. The other especially important factor is to be sure the location of the images you want to use is in the rendering path of Revit (File ->Options-> Rendering). Seems more sensitive to that path workflow now. The two images attached are a bitmap on the Enscape Grass. The bowling image is current 3.0 render

See if just "grass" works as a material name

This is current 3.0, named "Grass"

I've tried every variation of Grass and none of them work. My current project I'm posting on is a 2021 project. I opened up this project from another computer with Enscape 3.0 and it's still an issue, but a few blades of grass project, but does not display it like it should. I went to a 2020 project that has Grass in it and that grass is not rendering also. My coworker opened the same projects in the previous version of Enscape and it rendered the grass just fine in the previous version.

I just had my computer checked for software and hardware updated. Everything is current. Grass still is not rendering at all.

Have you checked General Settings, ensuring that Grass/Carpet Rendering is ticked?

I've finally discovered the actual issue. Grass is not rendering on vertical surfaces. The first posts are from a project, I have no grass on the ground. the grass I have are from Christmas Wreaths, hanging on the outside of a storefront.
And apparently I've never looked at these wreaths close enough before, to notice they weren't rendering grass in previous versions. Our admin had a grass image applied to our Grass materials, so from a distance, they still looked like grass, and never noticed they weren't rendering. In the screenshots above, I had removed that image, so it was easier to see it not rendering anything.
I tested this out in the previous release and it's doing the same thing as 3.0.

JBenny5781 , just so you know, vertical grass is not supported as you've found out yourself, but this also a feature request on our agenda - it has quite a few upvotes already and I'm adding you as well. Thank you!
