The effects should be most noticeable in interior scenes, and when rendering mirrors – unlike the previous GI system, it supports infinite reflections – or semi-transparent materials. Key changes in Enscape 3.5 include the new global illumination algorithm, which provides “improved lighting, reflections and rendering quality” on GPUs that support hardware-accelerated ray tracing. New in Enscape 3.5: new GI algorithm for GPUs that support hardware-accelerated ray tracing Its developer, also called Enscape, merged with V-Ray developer Chaos in 2022. Output is ray traced, and can be used for less demanding final-quality rendering, with the option to generate still images, animations, 360-degree panoramas or interactive scenes. The software live links to CAD and architectural design tools including Rhino and SketchUp, enabling users to explore large architectural scenes in real time, either on screen or in virtual reality. The update introduces a new GI system for GPUs capable of hardware-accelerated ray tracing, makes it possible to customise content from Enscape’s asset library, and adds SpaceMouse support.Īn intuitive real-time renderer for architectural design and CAD softwareįirst released in 2015, Enscape has become one of the key tools in the architectural visualization market, reaching the top ten in the last CGarchitect rendering survey. Enscape has released Enscape 3.5, the latest version of of its real-time visualisation software.
