huss191998 - We are looking if that's possible, but if we will support it or not, as I've mentioned before, we can't promise anything at this stage. Once I have a clearer answer, I will of course update this thread appropriately. Thanks for your understanding.

Yea, ok. Thanks for the API link. I must have missed that.

In regards to Enscape scattering tool:

Yes, that's what I thought was the issue. So, Nature is essentially showing preview / proxy geometry from the RhinoNatureLib until you bake it out? If i understand it correctly, and that's what you want Enscape to support? (sorry my RhinoNature trial has run out, I can't test it again right now - requested a license from the Nature author ;).

Can't promise anything, but will certainly take a closer look at this.

FelipeZ  huss191998  gautier  Tearch  officeBKK  Jcastle  v-cube Hi everyone. Id like to understand the request from you all for Nature support.

I've managed to use it with Enscape Assets, and have successfully created instances of the Enscape Assets over a surface using Nature.

If I remember correctly when I was looking at this, Enscape does not display the assets that are shipped with Nature itself though. Although I cant remember if that is entirely correct. Is that what the issue is for you all?

Can you please clarify this point for me? That would be most helpful. Thanks in advance.

When you say its not working, can you give some more detailed information as to what you are doing and the behavior you are getting?

If you are getting any error messages, can you provide screenshots of these?

Thanks in advance,

As the Enscape Assets are hard coded into the software, then they will only render in Enscape at the present time. I've up-voted the corresponding feature request on your behalf though.

We do not recommend connecting via Wifi, as the connection can get interrupted and the upload can fail. From your above posts, that appears to be what you are doing. Have you tested it with a direct cable connection?

DaveP - Please read the Release Notes again for 2.8.1 Hotfix. It says it will be fixed within the 2.9 development cycle. That means (hopefully) before 2.9 official release. The developers are still having issues reproducing this.

In regards to the bug #90046, I asked the developers to clarify this, and it is NOT the same issue as the one concerning BIM360.

I hope that makes the position clearer. But to reiterate, BIM360 issue is a current Known Issue that is currently being looked at by the developers and in the meantime, you should use the various workarounds suggested here in this thread,

Just as a note here, and a request. We do not appear to have any Revit 2021 users having this issue at present, but if someone is, then please let us know.

Also, if those of you who are having this issue can provide detailed minimum steps taken in order to experience this issue, such as:

• Open the project from BIM360
• Click on that button
• Then I click on that other button
• Then it freezes

That would be a great help and much appreciated.

mark-g - if you have not done so already, can you please submit log files as Demian suggests above.

Referencing this forum thread in the Feedback Form would be helpful also,

Thanks.

Marshallae - I am sorry to have to say, this is not possible at present, as it will break the assets texture mapping.

We have a feature request for this though, so I have up-voted that on your behalf in the meantime.

cdorfi - your transparency slot should be using an alpha map, so an Image needs to be selected from the Transparency drop down, and then you will need an appropriate alpha channel map. Selecting 'Glass' will not give you the result you want.

If you continue to have issues with this, please get back to me.

arqcova - up-voted on your behalf.

fginzberg - Web Standalone files are only rendered out in the equivalent of 'Draft' mode in the full Enscape version. This is currently a limitation of the WebGL 2.0 technology that is being used.

There is a full list of the current limitations for the Web Standalone files listed in our Knowledge Base article here.

jakedidier - Files can disappear when the properties are set to "hidden" and File Explorer is not configured to show hidden files. Computer users, programs and malware can edit file properties and set them to hidden to give the illusion that the files don't exist and prevent you from editing the files.

That would be the first thing to check.

Let me know if that helps or not, but this sound more like an OS issue, and not an Enscape issue.

wpstudio - We would need more information.

Log files and the project file.

Can you contact is via the Enscape Feedback button (which will send us the log files), so we can inform you of how to pass the project to us securely?

Goodmorning - I think I am right in saying that when it comes to materials in Rhino, we are somewhat limited by what is available in the API from Rhino, which is one reason why we provided the Enscape Material Editor.

Kwangmin - I am not sure i understand your image correctly though. Are you saying that surface a, b, and c all have different materials assigned in Rhino,? Or are you talking about applying different materials to each side of a surface? Some clarification would be really helpful in allowing me to better understand your request.

mark8848 - added your vote to the story.

mmlahti - No, this will not work at present, but is a valid Feature Request, which I have now created in our developer agenda.

So, your only option for now is to switch to Otthographic mode in Enscape and use the NumPad keys to set the elevation.

I will make sure to up-vote the Feature Request for all those concerned here.
