Here are the links: NVIDIA driver updates and AMD driver updates. You can do this via the NVIDIA or AMD website. It’s best practice to keep your graphics card driver updated to ensure Enscape runs smoothly. You will need either an AMD or NVIDIA card with at least 4GB of dedicated VRAM (not shared).

You will therefore need a graphics card powerful enough for Enscape to run. Since Enscape uses ray tracing for real-time rendering, it relies heavily on your graphics card (GPU) to quickly render your models. We currently support SketchUp 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and the latest SketchUp 2023 on Windows and SketchUp 20 on Mac.

How to start Enscape and render in SketchUpĮnscape is available for Windows 10 or later and Mac.

How to download and install Enscape for SketchUp.

We have a lot to cover, but if you’d like to jump to a specific section, click here: You’ll be creating beautiful renders and walking through your rendered project in no time.Ī quick note before we get started - while many of the features and functionality covered will apply to both Enscape for Mac and Windows, please refer to our dedicated Enscape for Mac guide if you are on a Mac device and using SketchUp. This article will walk you through the steps to help you get up and running quickly.

Still need to work with the new materials editor, but thank you as always for the awesomeness that is Enscape.Well, this is exciting - you’ve just signed up for Enscape (or you’re thinking about it 😉), and now you’re ready to start creating realistic renderings in SketchUp. Complex models load a lot faster and the lighting improvements are awesome.

Render Comparison - Panorama vs regular imageĪnyways, I love the new updates. Is this a setting I'm overlooking, an issue with InsiteVR or just a current limitation of panorama quality? Perhaps VR180 is an option, maintaining the same resolution, so we are effectively doubling the clarity? We love Enscape and use it for our standard image output, but we can't incorporate Enscape 360 panoramas in our VR demos at the moment. Even at high quality the Panorama doesn't look great compared to InsiteVR, but when you compare the standard image output side by side, Enscape is the very clear winner. I've attached a series of comparison images. I'm using a high quality output, but that doesn't seem like high enough quality to be worthwhile. Good day! We're demoing InsiteVR today and I find myself using the Panorama output in Enscape for the first time.
