Release Notes 04.06.2025

New

• Support Photoreal Materials in SU2025 - Enscape now supports the new physically based (“photoreal”) materials introduced in SketchUp 2025, ensuring a seamless, high-fidelity rendering experience that matches material definitions across both platforms. Metalness map and Ambient occlusion are not supported.
• Automatic level of detail for scene geometry - A new approach to automatically simplify the scene geometry in order to provide performance increases for scenes with a higher geometric complexity.
• Check for Running Embedded Apps and Errors reporting - Improve handling of running processes and error reporting for all embedded installations in the Enscape Installer
• Improved Visual Balance in Pen & Pencil Sketch Mode: Adjusted the appearance of vegetation contours and hatching in Pen/Pencil sketch mode. Contours are now more clearly visible, and hatching no longer appears darker than the outlines, resulting in a more readable and visually balanced sketch style.

• UI enhancements
  • Enscape Material editor - Values in Input fields are accepted after user presses Enter or when the field is out of focus
  • Asset placement - invalid surfaces notification during asset placement

• • Artistic visual modes - Artistic visual modes cannot be activated at the same time as 3D TV Stereo Mode.
  • Updated Enscape Installer icons
  • Multi asset selection improved tooltip
