Nice Smithgroup Logo.

You know...you might be able to fake the look of SSS in Enscape. See attachment. I noticed a couple things: You can't have self-illumination and transparency on at the same time, and bump map doesn't seem to show.

Very nice lighting. Be careful with repeating textures. Make sure they are seamless.

You guys talking about having a SSS material in Enscape? What if you set to foliage and change the opacity slider to make it less transparent? Would that work? Translucent materials are not fully transparent as the sample image showes. They absorb light vs leting light travel through 100 percent.

Good luck with that...Flat swatches and displayed color will vary from screen display, printed and rendered. You can spend hours color calibrating all your screens and printers, but you will not get an exact WYSIWYG output. Even when you send stuff to clients or show prints in their office. It's not a Enscape issue. It's a untrained eye issue. Get it as close as you can and then educate your clients on how light works in the real world. A paint swatch will look different compared to the paint applied to the building. Time of day, season...etc.

Just like with real world photography...render a shot with the correct interior exposure, even is the outside is blown out. Then render the shot with a negative exposure -2 maybe when the outside is not blown out. Combine them in photoshop.

Always adjust your mats under lit conditions. Don't just try to match a color in a flat 2d environment. The image you're showing is just demonstrating how light works and how the settings of your material interact with it. In order for you to achieve an exact match, you would need to create the exact lighting conditions of photograph. Just eyeball it inside Enscape and call it a day.

Since you have normalize brightness checked, use the lux slider to brighten the hdr/skybox.

Looks coo though.

Are you using Ipano to view them?

That's an issue that's been going on since they introduced lights. The material is acting correctly since it have a certain amount of reflectivity. They way to fix would be to incorporate a " Do not effect reflection" toggle in the light settings. That's how vray does it.

Do you have bloom on? If yes, try turning it off.

Coo...you need to work on your entourage. The lighting on the girl is off compared to the interior scene.

Awesome news on the new release. Great job on adding more content in the asset library. One thing I noticed in your demo images is that some of the entourage are faceted. Can that be adjusted before placing them in the scene?

That looks like the Lumion test scene with the guy walking his dog. Pretty cool.

Ies light work properly... You'll have to adjust the artificial light slider... Not on the ies but in the adavnce tab in settings window. Then tweak exposure to get what you want.

Does Enscape render one? I only set a matid and zdepth pass.

So I think I figured it out...Not sure why this happens, but when I delete the sub folders in the Enscape folder under Documents, I must clear something out.

That's not it....When open the file on someone else machine it works fine. Not sure if my profile is corrupt, but it seems not to work on machines I log into.

So, I'm having a strange issue with generating Panos in Enscape. My Enscape window shows a happy well lit exterior, but when I generate a pano the end result is a dark image...like the GI was turned off. Any way to fix this?
