  • Visual Settings: Presets panel is now expanded by default.

Fixed Bugs- Cloud Licensing: Fixed Cloud licensing reliability in secured corporate networks, reducing connection issues when obtaining a license.

  • SketchUp: Fixed an issue where Enscape would temporarily show duplicates of entities that didn’t actually exist.
  • SketchUp: Fixed a case where wrong textures were shown with materials upgraded from SketchUp 2024 to 2025 and newer.
  • SketchUp: Fixed a bug that would cause batch rendering of panoramas to fail.
  • View Management: Allow for the update of the name to be properly executed before we save.

  • Renderer: Fixed light reflection visibility not handling clearcoat materials.
  • Renderer: Fixed an issue where the sky can appear pixelated in video previews and exports.
  • Renderer: Fixed disappearing Billboard geometry when camera moved very close.
  • Asset Library: Improved performance when placing assets in old asset placement modes.
  • Material Editor: Fixed feedback button in the AI Material Generator not working.
  • V-Ray Scene export: Enscape produced large V-Ray scene files due to duplicating the geometry of asset instances.
  • Asset Library: Fixed Enscape hanging on shutdown when assets were still selected.
  • Licensing: Updated License overlays for Error -200.

Known Issues- Vectorworks: A problem where self-referencing design layers are not rendering assets.

  • Asset Library: Enscape could freeze when repeatedly pressing the Asset Library hotkey.
  • Light Management - Archicad: In Archicad, changing a light name will not update it in the Light Management window. On restart of Enscape, the new name will be shown.
