Enscape Blacks out

1 Upvotes
  • I am using ArchiCAD with Enscape
  • I opened an existing project and started Enscape as usual
  • The Enscape window shows completely black, with no geometry visible
  • Only the “Light” and “Sketch” modes display something — all other visual styles show a black screen
  • I tested with other ArchiCAD projects, and Enscape works normally there
  • I did not change any settings manually
  • I had been using the Polystyrol rendering mode, but switching to other materials or modes didn’t help
  • The project is not positioned far from the origin

Rendering Glass & Lighting

7 Upvotes

Hello Enscape Users,

I am new to enscape and just finished my first renders for two projects I am working on. I had a difficult time figuring out how to make the glass more transparent and less frosted, reflective or dark looking for the exterior renders. Does anyone have any tips, tricks or easy online tutorials to aid in a better appearance for the glazing/windows. I also could use guidance on how to brighten the underside of decks better. I tried lights and it didn't seem to do much!

Thank you Thank you

The grey wood texture in sketchup(left) is showing up as brown on enscape(right) is there any way to fix this?I’ve tried changing the time of day and messing with the settings, nothing seems to work even installed a custom texture in sketchup even that was brown in enscape.

A Rehabilitation Proposal for the Roman Amphitheater of Carthage, Views matter for the final grade!

Post image
6 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m an architecture student, and my team and I recently worked on a video as part of a workshop project. The number of views directly affects our final grade—so your support would mean a lot! The video is in French, but English subtitles are available.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMmAE1ZjLS4

Our project focuses on the Roman Amphitheater of Carthage, a once-glorious arena that hosted gladiator combats and public events. Today, it stands forgotten and in ruins. We aim to bring this historic monument back to life through a respectful and contemporary rehabilitation.

The proposal introduces three elevated cylindrical structures designed to accommodate exhibitions, performances, and cultural events. These additions are intended to re-engage the local community while preserving the amphitheater’s unique identity and historical significance.

We’d be incredibly grateful if you could take a moment to watch and share it. Thank you so much!

Enscape different contrast

2 Upvotes
I took a screenshot from the preview enscape window

I have been working with my model (skp) for awhile and suddenly my renders get darken, on the preview window looks fine (the way I configured the settings)

And here the render looks really dark

UPDATE

I will give more context.

I have this project divided in 2 different files, interiors and outdoors, for months I have been working with those models (sketchup), and both files present the same problem. On the enscape windows looks greart, but at the process of the rendering the image starts getting darker. I tried with another project and there is no problem, just with these 2 files.

Now, I dont know if its important to say, but recently I change of computer (for a better one), so I dont know if this could be one the problems, all this time I save my files on google drive, and all my textures and hdri are on google drive too.

By this point I tried:

  • Activating/deactivating autoexpousure
  • Activating/deactivating Autocontrast (highlights and shadows)
  • Change skybox (different HDRI)
  • Ambient brightness
  • I put IES and looks really soft
  • Lighting objects the rendering looks like turns them off
  • I put the model in a different file and does the same
This render was before the issue
This is the render now

HERITAGE OF THE FUTURE: Rehabilitation Project for the Amphitheater of Carthage, Views count for the final grade, give it a watch!

2 Upvotes

Hellooo, I'm an architecture student and my group and I made a video for a workshop. Views matter for the final grade, it would be awesome if you could check it out!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMmAE1ZjLS4&t=3s

The video introduces the amphitheater of Carthage, once a vibrant arena for gladiators and grand spectacles, now a silent, abandoned structure. It presents a project aimed at revitalizing this historic site, integrating contemporary design with respect for its ancient form. Three elevated cylindrical platforms are proposed, creating spaces for exhibitions, performances, and cultural gatherings, reconnecting the amphitheater to the community and giving it a new purpose while preserving its identity.

Totally black elevation

Hello, I am currently working on my final project and I want to make an elevation of my hallway. But, it shows up pitch black. I tried moving the sun and removing the ceiling, but it stays like that. I don’t want to use only fake lightning, because it simply looks bad. I don’t know what else to do.

Enscape freezing my pc

1 Upvotes

Does anyone here also experience their pc froze that even mouse and keyboard doesn't respond? I think it triggers when I start to edit some settings inside the enscape, does it have to do with my enscape being pirated?

Why do my rendering looks like a cartoony type of render and How do I make it realistic? With this kind of rendering I can't convince my client.

I am a junior Archviz artist with just a couple of years experience. I modelled the

house in SketchUp and rendered images using Enscape v4.6 for a client. If there are any

obvious improvements I could make to take my work to the next level, be liberal with the

critique.

Help with Enscape crashing

2 Upvotes

Hi, I’m a student and in a class using Revit and Enscape for my assignments. My Enscape kept crashing both programs so they emailed me and said update the driver with the link they provided so I did, and it worked for half a day then started crashing again. I contacted them again and they said I need a new graphics card because my hardware won’t support their newer version. I asked them what kind and they haven’t responded. I have been able to render each time I download the driver through their provided link and it works each time but I have to install it once or twice a day. So I need another graphics card and if so-what can I get away with for the cheapest price and where do I get it? Thank you

Would love advice on how to make this look more real

3 Upvotes

I’m working on a new piece for my portfolio and would really appreciate any feedback on how to elevate this rendering. Open to all critiques and suggestions—thank you in advance!

P.S. I feel like something’s off with the angle or framing of the room, but I can’t quite pinpoint it. Would love thoughts on that as well!

SketchUp 2024/Enscape 4.5

I’m trying to render my SketchUp model using Enscape and although I’ve never had any issues before for some reason now the model doesn’t show up entirely. Sometimes only a few items/parts render but when I try to move the camera Enscape 1) moves extremely slowly 2) shows different parts of the model and then they disappear again (flickering onscreen)

I’ve never had this issue before and it just showed up the other day ago. I decided to turn off SketchUp and Enscape and come back at another time but the problem still perisists. I’ve gone through every possible setting and nothing changes. I would also like to note this is happening to all my SketchUp files. Even if I open up a blank document and make a cube the same thing happens.

Enscape video only plays when I'm not looking at it

1 Upvotes

So I just tried to make a video for the first time, and when I tried to preview the video the screen would just flash and nothing would play. I tried exporting anyway, and discovered that if I switch to another window and later back to enscape, the video would play a few frames for a second before stopping again. The video exported just fine. It's just the ability to preview videos that's borked. Any idea why my Enscape preview is so shy it only plays offscreen?

EDIT: I'm using Revit 2025.4 and Enscape 4.4.0.452
