6) Animation wise something that's been bothering me very very much is when I insert a key and confirm it or when I change a key and apply it the darn camera jumps back to the last camera position that was done before I started doing animation and it's asking to apply the change to the current key selected. Of course I don't want that but it's a pain because if I'm not sure if I saved the changes I can't go back to them

7) Which brings me to request "undo" moves when under animation edition

9) I would strongly recommend to add this very simple feature. Each time I render a movie. I'd really like to have the XML exported at the same time with the same name. That way if I need to go back to it it's right there with the movie. Also if I forget to save the xml before the capture at least you're doing that for me. In our workflow currently we do sometime up to 50 cameras for a project so that we can edit our favorites (what can I say we're production artists we like takes) and having to click to save the xml then do the movie and not being sure if the movie matches the xml is cumbersome.

#6 This! Happens to me a lot.

#7 Undo would be nice too. I always think to myself, "this path is okay," then I try to tweak it a little be and realize the first path was right all along. I either have to save it before I make changes or just guess where it used to be.

#9 This would be an amazing feature. Maybe a little check box under the capture tab? That way people have the choice of including it or not.

I never knew I needed that neon light until now

Great work!

I've had a similar type issue with the "rectangle" Enscape lighting object. Where if I have a cabinet that's really tall and lined with shelves, if I were to put a rectangle light that spans the entire height it doesn't seem to "shine" on both sides of the shelves like a tape light would.

So as a work around, I use the rectangle light and make it as small as possible. A little square. And think of it as a diode in a tape light. Then I just copy it the entire length and group it so the model doesn't get messy. You're still able to adjust brightness easily since they are all the same component.

Thanks everyone!

Would it be worthwhile to anyone else if the material editor had some sort of little preview window?

Such as a sphere or cube like you see on various websites that you gather seamless textures from. That way you wouldn't have to open the entire project on enscape you could assign a material to something and tweak it quickly on the material editor and move on. Then when you opened the project in Enscape, you're confident in having the right specular, roughness, bump, etc. on your materials.

I believe I have voted for this already but just to make sure, it's got my vote! As a custom cabinet shop, this feature would go such a long way for us.

Hi Timeless, ETA for Enscape 2.7 is currently around February.

Knowing roughly when next major updates are coming is much appreciated and very exciting!

Expecting you to add a severed hand, an eyeball and an arrow next

Gadget I was actually contemplating putting a bow and arrow in it. As well as like a latex glove. A severed hand would be cool!

EGIE Thanks

Demian Gutberlet Just a little free time. I tried to bring the actual tools from SketchUp to life. So all the tools up there are a representation of some sort of tool on SketchUp. The metal jack in the middle is actually a representation of the axis and it's colors. Just tried to make them real life

A nice little background I put together.

I have a similar issue where a sudden stop of the IES light and a dark rectangle appears when I apply a bump map to the walls for paint. If that helps.

You will have to save them individually and then load them individually and then render them individually.

It's been brought up a lot and I believe the Enscape team have it on their agenda for the future to batch render multiple paths and scenes.

Patiently waiting myself.

Preview version: (2.6.0-preview.6+9936)
Graphics card drivers for my Radeon Pro WX7100: (19.Q2.1) (also happened on (19.8.1))
Rendering Quality: (1080p)
Project Size: didn't matter if it was big or small.
Path: didn't seem to matter if it was a saved path or a randomly placed path

Reverting all the way back to the stable version.

I'm surprised about the good look too. Quite good for real time and so much glass faces!! Thank you for sharing.

Thanks!

I was really happy with how this light fixture turned out. Finding out that crystal is not easy to replicate. Shiny, yet see through. Mixture of chrome and glass on inside and outside planes. Definitely could do some axis flips on the crystal components to keep it looking random all the way across.




Watch it sparkle

Add another upvote for me

Just downloaded the new preview and witnessed a color change in my metallic surfaces while rendering. It doesn't show up on the preview when editing the video but when you go to export this happened.

Reverting to a previous version in the meantime. Just thought I'd bring it up.

Is there any way we could make a material that we could paint on the inside of objects so that 0 light can go through? Almost like a black hole effect. Once light hits a plane with the material, it absorbs it somehow.

I know some people get some light bleeding through walls which can usually be fixed by making walls thicker, but working with cabinetry, the boxes are a set thickness. There's no making a box thicker. I was thinking, maybe a material that could be painted on the inside faces of an object that would tell light to not pass through.

Is this a realistic idea, or something where as Enscape progresses and becomes better and better that this type of thing won't be an issue?

I have a picture that kind of shows what I'm talking about. The cabinet with a mirror back has an LED strip light channel routed in the top, shining down. But the light sources, being so close to the top of the box, kind on bleed through giving the box on the top a lighter shadow than its counterpart on the left of it.
