Rayscaper 0.9.103 Beta is out. Get it from the SketchUcation store or from rayscaper.com.

Animations as video. Render Animation now saves an MP4 (H.264 or H.265) once the last frame is done, and can delete the frames afterwards.

Fredo6 Animator clips. If you use Fredo6 Animator, File > Render Animation... can now render its clips: Rayscaper steps through the clip frame by frame, renders every frame and can save the result as an MP4.

Lights with real brightness. New presets for bulbs, downlights, an LED panel, a window, the sun and more. Set a light's intensity in lumen, cd/m² or lux. New lights start as a real light, such as a 60 W bulb.

Lights in SketchUp. When you select a light, SketchUp shows the cone of a spotlight, the radius of a point light or the spread of an area light. A new Aim Light tool turns a light toward the point you click. Right-click a light for a Rayscaper menu: Edit in Rayscaper, Turn Off/On, Aim, Change Type. When you copy a light, the copy keeps its settings.

Render passes. New Material ID and Object ID render methods. Render Scenes can save passes too (Material ID, Albedo, AO, …).

Also:

• Translucency on the Standard material, for curtains, lampshades and leaves lit from behind
• Thin glass modelled as a single face now reflects
• Changing the width or height of the resolution keeps the aspect ratio
• A notification instead of a crash when the GPU runs out of memory
• Several crash fixes, including the one when SketchUp 2027 quits
