Hey eri ,

still looks like Enscape is set to read Revits "Graphics" tab, not the "Appearance" tab.

Can you please make sure that setting says "Appearance" in your General Settings / Revit Tab?

Hey jagostinhoCT , they are being saved in your design application project file when it's saved, or you can export them as BCF files. Hope this helps!

Hey ASxJ2099 yes, it's in the Sky tab in the Visual Settings now.

Hey FlorentFaust , sorry for keeping you waiting.

It seems to me like the shadow effect you're pointing out may be caused by the mesh itself, not the bump map. Is it the same if you don't apply a bump map at all?

If so, try rendering an actual image using the "Screenshot" button. This should improve the shadow, doesn't it?

Hey danielao

Neither does Enscape provide tools to reduce the poly-count, nor can you assign materials - this has to be done in your 3D software and will then transfer correctly via .obj, .fbx or .gltf to Enscape

Hey Xufeng-Sam

It looks as if that's one factor, yes.

The reflection algorithm filters out objects from reflections based on distance, scale and complexity - among others.

In your case this seems to have this unwanted result.

Can you try either bringing the trees closer to the camera (to the reflective surface), or - have you thought about using a Horizon Source in the Visual Settings / Atmosphere tab? That's a better way to get realistic reflections anyway!

Try lowering the Bump amount. you'rs is set really high and additionally, by setting it to over 0,500, it's set to displacement mode.

Your bump map is quite tiny and detailed, so these strong details on small space look very noisy in your example. Try setting it to 0,100.

Also, your Transparency seems to be sett really low (just 5? try setting it up to 90 or so if you want real glass)

Does that improve the look?

Thanks for your feedback, we've filed your requests!

Rebrand0778 In SketchUp you can just add a video file instead of the Color (Albedo) Texture. Instead of an image file, just load the video file.

Does this help?

Hey hoza ,

Welcome to the forums!

I'm sorry to hear you perceive our responses as offensive. This doesn't have anything to do with our developers being lazy, it's just that ArchiCAD doesn't offer tools out of the box we could use to scale our assets, so the implementation work for this feature is very, very complex and something we didn't have to do for any other CAD software, yet.

I have added your vote to the system, though. But to make it clear: at the moment, no resizing of asset library elements in ArchiCAD is planned.

Hope you have a great new Year!

Hey lef80 ,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

Please keep in mind Enscape is still a real-time rendering engine, so complexity of your models and textures has an effect.

If you fill your model with lots of high-detail, high-poly models and high-resolution textures, ANY graphics card will have troubles executing it fluently. This is probably where your noise comes from.

Also, smart idea to proxy the high detail models, but this will only improve your SketchUp performance. The Exe Standalone produced by Enscape still has to contain all the models in full quality, all textures, and also the Enscape Engine and 3D assets, so that's why it wouldn't help.

To answer your questions:

1. We can't just increase the web standalone quality anyway we wish. First, it's written in an entirely differen system (WebGL) than Enscape, so we don't have the same tools to craft the same high quality. But this is also the reason why it can run in a browser. If we were able to achieve the same quality in the Web Standalone, it wouldn't perform any better than regular Enscape, either.

2. Thank you for your feedback. I have added your vote to our internal system.

For corona-compliant user meetings, have you thought about holding a web meeting with your clients and sharing your screen while showcasing Enscape?

Not the fanciest, but a very viable solution.

thanks, eeblack . Your vote has been filed.

Hey Rebrand0778 ,

So the Oculus Quest 2 is a good VR headset, but it's a portable, standalone one. This means, as long as it's not connected via cable or strong Wifi to a powerful computer, it will not be able to display Enscape in real-time.

You will be able to view 360 Panoramas, like with a Google Cardboard, but you won't be able to move around, change the daytime, or see changes to the model right away.

If you want to enjoy real-time VR with full access to Enscape, go with one of the tethered headsets listed in this article

Hey Justin THA , looks like the imported model might include no materials, is that possible?

If that's not the case, can you send us the model you're trying to import to support@enscape3d.com so we can check where the issue is?

Seopaoo can you send me your educational email address via PN, so I can check for your application in our systems?

If yes, you should receive or have received a reply from our support team as soon as possible.

nabeelkhawer6 , did you send us Feedback, yet?

Hey nabeelkhawer6 , please follow the same steps I mentioned above

Okay, can you please check what value you have set for Visual Settings / Atmosphere Tab / "Artificial Light Brightness"? Can you set it to 100 or 200%?

Does that change anything? If not, can you please send me a screenshot of your light in SketchUp?

did you check your light at night? Switch the daytime by using Shift + Right Mouse Button and move the mouse.

If your light shows up during night, it can do so during day as well, just increase the brightness further. You will not see the "light bulb", however, only the light arriving on surfaces.
