It is the easiest and fastest way to turn your models into immersive 3D experiences. You can design, document, and visualize simultaneously from one model. It plugs directly into your modeling software, giving you an integrated design and visualization workflow across all project phases.Įnscape allows you to work intuitively with accessible rendering that requires no prior specialized knowledge to use. Once that is done, those materials will appear in Enscape’s Material Editor.Enscape™ is a real-time visualization and virtual reality plugin for Rhino (also for SketchUp, Autodesk, Archicad, and Vectorworks). Next, each Rhino material you wish to adjust must be selected and have its Type set to Enscape as shown in the image below. The first thing to know is that this feature only works with Rhino 6 and higher due to some technical limitations in older versions. Lighthouse Project Modeled in Enscape Introduction

I only added the water (a large 3D box) and the Enscape assets, so you too can download this model and try these new features yourself if you wish! Be sure to click the link and take a look at the other models by this user some are free and the rest are reasonably priced when you consider the time it would take to model each item. To show off the new material editor in Rhino, I downloaded a free model from Turbosquid called Lighthouse on the artificial rock by user Shakudo. Check out the latest version here!

Update: A new version of Enscape is now available. This article will highlight the extended visualization opportunities now afforded Rhino users, thanks to this new Enscape feature. It is very much like the Enscape material editor already in SketchUp. With the recent release of Enscape 2.5, customers now have a Material Editor inside Rhino 6. One of the great things about Enscape is its consistency across the primary design platforms it supports: Rhino, Revit, SketchUp, and Archicad.
