Previous Release / Preview Threads Merged

Hi,

downloaded 3.5 but I do not see any feature updates in Revit. Specifically changing materials of assets, and assets with Varients and configurable lights.. Am I missing something? I do not see the Pencil icon below the three trees icon in the assets.

Do you have a video or a step by step to see 3.5 new features in Revit?

Hi Tearch

Unfortunately, I have no update at this moment.

Is Link/Air Link to Oculus/Meta Quest 2 implemented in this update or is that going to stay officially unsupported for now? I just got a Quest through work and was planning on trying it out this weekend.

please tell me there will be an improvement in the program with artificial light sources

+1 for the voting portal mentioned above

Will this update include Meta Quest 2 Compatibility???? PLEASE PLEASE...... I hope so . My office purchased 2 of them and we would like to start using them with Enscape.

Despite not offering "full compatibility" it should still work without any problems. As long as you have Steam + SteamVR installed alongside the usual Oculus application (used to adjust settings of the device, buy games etc.)

If you still run into any problems, just let me know please. Usually it should be as simple as plugging the headset in and installing those applications. From there on you can make use of Enscape VR as usual.

Are you referring to the shadows perhaps cast by them or the lights themselves? In any case, more details would be great. Thanks!

Thanks for the response. Yes, the Quest 2 does work! Although I think it runs into issue that are no fault of Enscape. Is there a way to remap controls? Not sure if this is done in Enscape or SteamVR.

Dear Forum Community,

We've just released the latest Enscape v3.5 Preview - Version 8.

NEW:

• Improved Indirect Lighting & Reflections
  With this Preview we introduce the first iteration of our overhauled global illumination algorithm in Enscape. Users will benefit from:
  • More realistic and higher quality indirect lighting especially in interior scenes, through a higher number of light bounces.
  • More consistent lighting and shading in (mirror) reflections. Surfaces in reflections now receive more realistic indirect illumination and don’t show inconsistencies between “screen-space” and “off-screen” anymore (depending on the selected quality level).
  • These improvements are available for users that have a GPU with hardware-accelerated ray-tracing support (make sure the setting is enabled in the Rendering Settings)

Reflections/Mirrors before Preview 8:

Reflections/Mirrors after Preview 8:

Further improvements to this are still worked on, but of course we’re eager to hear any feedback on the current implementation from our Preview users!

BUGFIXES:

• Incorrect Shadowing of Decals With Cut-Out Textures
  If you placed a surface with a cut-out texture close to another surface it sometimes caused incorrect overshadowing of the beneath surface. This has been resolved in this Preview.

• Fixed Crash in Sketchup in Combination With Other Extensions

If you wish to get a full overview of what's been added with Enscape 3.5 Preview 7 and full releases prior, check out this release/preview notes gathering thread here.

Please note: Preview versions are not production-proven, so be aware that there can be issues, and please report any of them back to us either on this thread or via the normal support channels. Doing so will help us with providing an even more stable and reliable product in the future.

Do you simply hit the VR Headset Icon in Enscape. Or do you still have to use SteamVR?

If anything that would be done via a plugin or such as I'm not sure if this is possible in SteamVR, I do not recall this being an option unfortunately.

At the moment you will still have to also install and start Steam + SteamVR, afterward you can just hit the VR headset button and you're good to go. These additional software solutions should not be required anymore though once we'll add official support. Still, Enscape VR should be working without any major issues currently already.

Do you experience any issues with other software as well perhaps? Which graphics card are you using in combination with Enscape?

i use RTX 3060 graphics card

Can you make sure that your graphics card drivers are also up to date? Acquire them from the NVIDIA homepage ideally please if you haven't already.

If that makes no difference or you're already using the latest version, please also submit me a feedback report with your logs, which allows me to troubleshoot this further with our developers.

Thank you in advance.

All drivers on my personal computer are up to date, video card drivers are also up to date.

I have reinstalled Enscape 3.5+7 and it is stable in video processing.
