- Enscape is a real-time rendering plug-in that offers exceptional rendering capabilities to create photorealistic visualizations of your building models, including:
- Rendered images
- 360 degree panoramas
- Video and real-time (live) walkthrus
- Virtual reality
- The Enscape plug-in works with many Windows modeling tools:
- Autodesk Revit
- SketchUp Pro
- Rhino
- ArchiCAD
- Vectorworks
- Enscape is now available for Mac OS users who create models using the SketchUp model tool. It can also be used with Windows modeling tools on an Intel-based Mac with a Bootcamp partition.

- Enscape performs its renders using your graphics card (GPU), but the graphics card has to have dedicated VRAM, and not shared VRAM as found with Intel Integrated Graphics chips. If your CPU and RAM are capable of handling Revit, for instance, and you have a capable GPU, Enscape should work. A good CPU can speed up Enscape’s loading times. The system requirements to run Enscape, as well as the Standalone Executable files that can be exported from Enscape, are identical.
- It is also recommended that your internet connection is fast and stable, and that you should use a direct cable connection and avoid using a Wi-fi connection where possible, as this can slow down the Asset Library loading times.
- Note for Mac Users: Enscape can typically run on a Mac using Bootcamp (which provides access to the Mac graphics card). Enscape cannot run under Parallels. A native MacOS version is also available that works with SketchUp models.
