Due to a hardware failure, I had to re-install to REVIT 2025 and now am using latest enscape version. I’ve had to update older model into 2025 Revit. Materials (bumps, images and tints) are showing in Revit but not in Enscape. Is this a path problem or something else? How do I figure this out? Shown below is rendering on older version of Revit/Enscape on older computer and White version is on the new computer.
Thanks
Hi @RICHMCNAMARA , and welcome to our Forum.
Allow me to share the following guide and additional steps you can take which may already help in this case:
Issues with Enscape not displaying Revit materials are usually caused by either Revit not having a permanent image file to send to Enscape or Revit itself not locating the image. To troubleshoot this, first, we recommend to delete the Enscape temp folder with your texture cache to ensure Enscape isn’t “holding onto” old material images. Please navigate to “C:\Users%username%\AppData\Roaming\Enscape\Data\Textures\” in Windows File Explorer and delete the contents. It may be necessary to enable “Show Hidden Files” in Windows Explorer, as this location is hidden by default.
If the materials in question are Revit’s default materials, please ensure you’ve added the default Revit material library location to your Additional Material Paths option inside Revit itself. To complete this process, open the Revit File tab and select Options > Rendering. From here, ensure the default Revit libraries are listed under Additional Appearance Paths. These paths are:
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Materials\Textures\1\Mats
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Materials\Textures\2\Mats
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Materials\Textures\3\Mats
- C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Materials\4* Revit 2025 only
- These locations can also be C:\Autodesk Shared[…]
If these are not listed, please add them using the green plus sign.
For more information about Additional Appearance Paths, please refer to Autodesk’s help page on the topic.
It is important to note that you can simply reach out to our dedicated support team as detailed here in case the above is not helping with resolving this behavior at hand. Then we will simply have to investigate further which is why a dedicated support report including log files especially would be very helpful to receive.
