There used to be a trello board w/ the public dev agenda which has been made unavailable though, as it led people to be upset when things were shifted around and priorities were set anew. Your best bet at the moment is to check the public Enscape roadmap on the main page.

What would be great if the Enscape Team - Demian Gutberlet - could provide like a short list of like the top 5 or 10 currently most upvoted topics on a monthly or bi-monthly basis. This would at least act as an indicator what's in demand right now..

Just saw the 10.7.1 drivers that provide support for SKP2021 have gone to stable version, the folks over at the SketchUp forums mostly are positive, these drivers should work fine.

I know there are many Skatter users in this forum, so just a quick post to let you know that we recently fixed an issue that made SketchUp freeze when generating a Skatter setup while Enscape was running.

So this should make using Skatter with Enscape more enjoyable

Nice

Any news on Skatter 2? Haven't made it into the crowdfunding campaign when it launched and therefore no beta, therefore eagerly awaiting a public relase!

Why is there no one to discuss such a good proposal?

What seems important to you might not be that important to others, who would've thought?

Me neither but you get access to all the Quizel stuff for free by having it.

"Free" is one thing, what about licensing though? Do the TOS allow for use outside Twinmotion ecosystem?

It's located in a rural part of south bavaria, rather beautiful place.

Some of the recent stuff, working on a soon to be renovated old farm house.

Okay so the material resizer is good at identifying large maps. However the resize feature doesn't work for me as each time the file crashes. So I'm manually having to local the material in the "in model" tab and resizing with Photoshop.

Well, that's odd, it works perfectly fine for me on SKP21. If you're just looking to find out the largest textures you could also use ThomThoms MaterialTools. Then there's also Texture Resizer which can resize materials based on occupied area and also crop to fit, which might save a couple of megabytes here and there.

Is there an easier way to select an object by material. The method SKP using only work at the non grouped level. Any extension that work by zooming into the group that contents the material?

Check out Selection Toys, this might do exactly what you're looking for.

Use this, Zoom selection, done.

Hope this helps.

In 3dsMax I can see where the "fat" is in a project with the asset manager UE4 has a great tool as well. Does one exist for Sketchup b/c It would be extremely useful to see what is eating up my vram?

When it comes to materials there's Material Resizer which helps you to find and resize overly large textures. Used this numerous time to massively reduce file size. There's also CleanUp³, which helps to get rid of unneeded geometry and much more.

Well, I haven't changed a thing, yet the bug is gone now. I have no idea what caused this but to be honest: as long as it stays that way I'm not going to ask.

THIS AINT A WORK AROUND ITS A BODGE

It's a workaround until they implement compatibility with SKP2021 - it's not like you're being forced to use it for now.

One more thing: All those arched doors/elements make it look like in a 80s hair salon rather than a professional conference room.

You could also argue that the two sentences on the wall contain the word "problems" 3 times. In a professional setting I'd generally prefer uplifting and encouraging words over reproachful language. Or, well, don't use that stuff at all, wall quotes tend to be hit or miss.

Still happens in 3.0 preview 2.

That Comic Sans MS font is a no-go, everything else looks good though.

I have de- and reinstalled numerous times - for one user and for all users - and it didn't make any difference. Unfortunately due to my schedule I currently can't test the preview. Is there anything else I can do?

Had this happen with SKP2020 and Enscape 2.9, now moved Enscape 2.9 to SKP2021 - the problem persists.

When opening the Asset Library it will not open and even block SKP from working unless I kill the Enscape.CustomAssetEditorLauncher process twice.

Thank you MatthiasL for your time. But, are you sure? Copied all non + visible items from and paste to. Enscape isn't starting.

For me it worked, are you sure, you copied it into the right location? If you did it rigth the bars should be available as shown by Dadi .

Install SKP2021, go to your user folder, subfolder AppData\Roaming\Sketchup\Sketchup2020\SketchUp\Plugins, copy the folder "enscape" and the file "enscape.rb" to AppData\Roaming\Sketchup\Sketchup2021\SketchUp\Plugins and you're set.

Just tried launching, works just fine. Can't speak for rendering stills/videos/panoramas though, haven't tested those yet.

Orientation is off here:

Other than that: looks very good!

My biggest bottleneck is SU’s sluggishness with big models; especially with copy/paste operations.

Agreed, working in SKP with high poly models is a complete and utter mess. Regarding copy/paste the only workaround I found is to use the move tool w/ CTRL to quickly multiply assets instead of copy/pasting.
