Introducing Enscape for SketchUp!


Enscape, is an easy to use, real time rendering plugin for SketchUp. There is no need to carefully adjust your perspective before rendering, just start Enscape and fly to the spots you like. It’s fully dynamic and a lot of fun to use, but most importantly, it will give you a fantastic rendered model to show your clients.

Features of Enscape include:

Live Update – 

All modifications in SketchUp are automatically shown in Enscape – even during Virtual Reality!

Material Keywords

Enscape uses a material keyword system to add detail to the SketchUp materials. In many cases, this works out of the box if your water is already specified as “water” in SketchUp.

Section Planes – 

Use the SketchUp section plane to show interesting cross sections of your work.

Export Options

Enscape has one click functionality and updates your Enscape scene as you modify your project in SketchUp. You also have export options such as 360° panoramas. Virtual reality functions for both Oculus and HTC Vive are also available with Enscape for SketchUp; and they are also accessible with a single click.

We’ve got you covered!

What is Enscape for SketchUp?

Enscape for SketchUp real-time rendering & virtual reality that brings your visual exploration directly into your modeling tools so you can focus on creating, designing, and building.

How can I Render using Enscape For SketchUp

Add light sources to your model to brighten up your project. From SketchUp, go to Extensions -> Enscape -> Enscape Objects. Keep your model clean by taking out extra geometry and materials, since the lighter your model is, the better it will perform in both SketchUp and Enscape. Use renderable proxies within your SketchUp model, such as vegetation, and Enscape will transform them into high-polygon, detailed objects that look very realistic. Use Enscape’s roughness map settings to adjust the roughness of your materials and create realistic-looking surfaces, such as crisp reflections and matt surfaces.

How do I add Enscape to SketchUp?

Enable Enscape in SketchUp The first method is to add the Enscape ribbon to the SketchUp Toolbar by right-clicking the SketchUp Toolbar and selecting the Enscape options. The first time this is done, the Enscape toolbar may open as ‘floating’.
